Daddyroo Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 A Pumpkin was the first rc I bought new - to replace the tamiya fox I'd bought off a mate after I destroyed the chassis lol. So much fun popping wheelies everywhere in the street thanks to the uprated motor, tho made it a handful at the indoor race meet I used to attend. Really thinking about getting one for fun but want a traxxas UDR too - and the wife will probably kill me whichever way I go lol 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post echo Posted July 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2022 Hi all, really wanted a lunchbox when I was a kid but never got one (something in my head is saying they were way more expensive in the 80’s)……anyway, nearly 40 years later my daughter has bought one for me 😁😁 apart from bearings I have built it completely stock but I am going to change the motor (nothing too crazy, probably a Tamiya sport tuned) . I will be doing the 5th shock mod and when I can get some I’ll be fitting oil filled shocks all round. Wondering what I can do about the horrendous steering, any (cheap) suggestions? I’ve painted the wheels red and the body black. Going to be airbrushing a grim reaper on the sides. I think eventually I would like to lower it and have on-road wheels if I can find some. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 The cross body reinforcement at the shock towers is also worth doing 👌 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I put a cross brace over the top of the front shocks and fitted a 5th shock at the back. pretty much stock other than that. had to fit Lights though 😈, I pulled apart an old servo and used the board from that to have the lights controlled from my transmitter, channel 6 on my Tx is a rotary knob so I can control the lights for on/off and brightness. painted the shell, not 100% happy with it but it won’t last any way so then I’ll paint it again 🤣🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PraetoR Posted October 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2022 Very purrdy Pumpkin! Had to build a complete new body for my fiancé's Midnight Pumpkin, after the last one got smashed. It's Tamiya TS-41 Coral Blue. Then I just hand-painted the "vents" behind the grill, black. After applying and removing several stickers, we decided it looked better without any! Apart from the spot lamps, but I don't have any of those. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richbogle Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Talk batteries to me folks! How are you all powering your midnight pumpkins? Basically got 1 of these from my wife for Xmas (I am experienced in RC) recently built a 3S powered neo scorcher ect getting back in2 the hobby after a lot of years! Are folk still using the NIMH batteries? This was originally my plan but starting to think now a 2S lipo will be a good option as I now have a bit of knowledge about the lipo plus got the charger for ballance charging etc... unsure about motor yet but won't be stock, not mental either possible 1 of my old racing brushed motors but unsure Let me know what yous are using folks. Merry Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ag100 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) Fitted a new servo to the Lunchbox, old one was a little slow (etronix ET 2070), new one is a little faster (GX Servo G25 25kg), now it’s more responsive on the steering.

The Independent front suspension kit is really good, transforms the way it drives, for some this may be a bad thing as it takes away some of its madness, but I like it. Highly recommend the parts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
