I'm in the throws of investing in a new traxxas xmaxx I am just trying to decide if I'm doing the right thing buying traxxas own battery and charger or I should go after market. If so which ones are best? Iv been saving for ages so waiting a bit longer and not jumping into wasting cash would be a good idea 😜 Many thanks. Dave

Thanks pal. No strange buzzing noise. It's a new 1/16th spectrum servo so I assumed it would be decent. It returns true with no splines missing. If you turn on the tx and Rx and put load on the servo saver it's stays kinked one way.. I think it must be a poor design. It's not even like it's working hard, this thing is tiny lol. I could understand it on an xmaxx

Thanks. This I what I thought. The servo saver won't go any tighter. I might try glue it shut. I know it will cause the servo to fail in time but it's pretty useless at the minute. It's annoying because it came brand new like this. Anyway I should know better RTR = ready to rebuild 🤣

This is happening to my model but I suppose could be applicable to everyone in the RC world. So I have a brand new losi mini t and whenever I center the stearing after a couple of turns up and down the street it kinks slightly off to the left. I have made sure everything is tight or loose enough in the linkage to work. The servo saver is tight and no splines are missing on the servo. Can anyone recommend something else I can try ? At this point I'm assuming it's a weak servo saver not allowing the wheels to set back to zero? Many thanks. Dave

As title. Would be nice in good condition. Cash waiting, many thanks

Cheers guys.. yeah i thought as much ! The one on ebay does look nice but its a bit on the rich side. I was obviously a bit ambitious lol Thanks again

Hi chaps. Just wondering if the above can still be bought in kit form, maybe from over seas? Iv done a google search and not found much.. if not ill look at getting a pre owned model. Cheers. Dave

Hi has anyone bought the above track and ski kits for the lunchbox/pumpkin/grasshopper etc.. i just wondered if there are any good ? Many thanks. Dave

It looks well mate thanks for the pics and advice

I suppose the clue was my clod lol Where did you get your parts mate ? Thanks a bunch. Dave

Nice ! Is that your clod?

Yeah great mention. Tbh i didnt even know it existed

Thanks for your input thats is just what i wanted to hear !. I think im pretty set on the super clod buster as the price and ability to use it from the get go are a big advantage in my eyes. The txt 2 is a bit out of our price range and they dont look as good as the original txt i think if i could have afforded one at the time i would have got one of those Thanks again. Dave

Hi chaps. Im after a new kit to build with my daughter. We did the lunchbox a few years ago, the mad rat kit last year and now we are looking at the super clod buster. She loves the lunchbox but would be good to have somthing that can be used for a bit of off road crawling and is slightly more capable. As the clod buster has a cult following i was wondering if companys still exist that sell custom parts for the clod buster to make it better and stronger off road ? Upgraded chassis and shocks etc.. It is kind of becoming a tradition at christmas time that we build some kind of kit so i thought this would be ideal ! Cheers guys

Hi guys i was hoping somone could help me. My revo engine is leaking from the flywheel and over heating so insted of spending a fortune trying to replace it with another odd ball after market unit i would try convert it to electric. I already have 1/8th brushless running gear so im hoping it would be fairly streight forward getting and installing a conversion kit, at hopefully less then the cost of a new engine. What do you guys think ? And does anyone know of a good supplier of conversion kits for revos. Many thanks. Dave
