ordred mine over the weekend. what lipos is everyone using?

http://www.giantshar...y-p-406441.html theses any good?

just hope you get the right ones as a few people have gotten the airsoft ones instead of the one there showing.

plus why not goto hobbyking and get some turnigy`s they seem tobe much better than the ones i got from giantshark.

they seem to have more punch and last longer even thoguh there the same mah as the gens ace ones

how do you change the spur gear?

just got a stone in mine, now missing 3 teeth!

four screw`s underneath the four on the top pull the back end off and you then need a nut remover tool like the one you use to take your wheel nuts of with should have got one with the m8. it maybe abit tight so grab a cloth to hold the old spur with and remove the nut holding the three washers on and there you go old spur of and just repeat to put new one on

Just got my mini 8. Great wee car so far. Couple of questions. I have the rates at full and with the steering. It goes full lock one way and the other way it doesn't really seem to go as far. Normal? I am going to change the servo in a few weeks. Also when I set the steering trim and do a few circuits the car tracking seems to be off again?

you may need to take the servo horn off and re-centre the servo and put it all back together and yes the standard servo sucks thats why most people change them to something better like the hitec hs-225mg with the kimboruogh saver (red one if you use the hitec servo)
