Jacksprogis Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Ok My Lovely hammers took some right Hammer yesterday , Gearbox is still all well after a multitude of Backflips and rolls . Don't like it , Simply stop down talking the car and do something else . Many others on other forums love these and My Thoughts aren't changing one bit . Cut the tyres and ready to give it hell again today in the wet . Got her bound up to my 4PL and the change is amazing , Feels right Wacked a Trusty Hitec in too as the stock servo works and thats all . Need to wire the winch up and We'll be good to go . Where's the postman ?? Jack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjagaiden Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I too had an absolute blast with my twin hammers today, though didn't get it nearly as wet as Jack's. The kids set up obstacle courses in the back garden, and were particularly pleased that it was able to drive up their garden slide. Drove it through their sandpit and play pool with ramps to enter and exit. We had a little soaking in the afternoon and that didn't stop the fun! I've never had so much fun going slowly. Guess I'll have to change my name to James May!!! As Jack says I can see I'll get more out of the buggy if I wire it up to my Sanwa MT4. Could then set up low / neutral / high onto the toggle switch, and change the throttle curve to add some finesse to the controls. When the HS225MG and steering servo saver come in I'll probably also swap the steering servo to something more speedy. I can see this being my 'go to' buggy when I have 10 minutes to blast round the back garden. I know it's not perfect, but there's already hopups for it like the fullforce RC ally top plate, and Vaterra parts are very reasonably priced compared to say Associated or Losi. I am sure if the plastic tranny gears are a problem, there will be a Vaterra or third party solution available soon. I spent nearly a grand on my Losi 5ive-T and it came with a badly flexing steering servo setup out of the box. N 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate. Honest opinions are what make the forum great! Go and look at US RC web site reviews and you can't believe ANYTHIING you read. I long since stopped believing anything that they write up in RC Car Action as they never critique anything they are given to review. So a when a new model comes out, experiences from real users are like gold dust. I've flipped my share of RC cars in my time. Some I really regretted (like my Vorza Flux - what was I thinking) and others I haven't (Losi 5ive). All part of the fun of the hobby!

ninjagaiden Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Another blast round the garden before work this fine morning! Just placed an order for extra body panel set, to be painted in Pactra fiery orange with black decals. N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjagaiden Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Look forward to the pics, esp the winch mount! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjagaiden Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 So I got my replacement body panels painted and put the decals on. Went with Lime Ice rather than burnt orange because of the colour of the shocks and motor mount. I'm pretty pleased with the result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
