RC Freaks Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 No, the closest fit is the Slash 4x4 front shocks - need those all round with the fitment kit from proline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldcuppatea Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Okay, I can't bear hearing about how great the Flux is any more. I'm going to get one this weekend (if I can track one down nearby anyway). To save me from ending up with the wrong batteries and charger, can someone with a Flux model link me to suitable items?

coldcuppatea Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Thanks Joe. Looks like a drive up to Modelsport on Saturday for me! Just got to decide whether to keep or sell the Nitro version now. Edited March 28, 2013 by coldcuppatea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeGT Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'd keep it for a bit and see how much you use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC Freaks Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Sell it. How much are you using your nitro now Joe? Haven't seen it in a few weeks .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldcuppatea Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Well, I have also been looking at Go Pro's and also Sony's equivalent (this forum is costing me a fortune!) and releasing the money in the 3.0 would certainly help! Anyone on here want it?

rcrallyuk Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hi guys. Hope our liking the rally section. I'm looking for some info around other chassis. I have started an intro to rallying section but I think it would be good to have links to pages about specific chassis. If one, or some would send me some details about upgrades for the wr8 that the would be great. I need some details for: Suspension Wheels Shells Bearings Motor Diy hints and tips If u can avoid eBay links as much as you can. Just on me the details Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldcuppatea Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Had my first trip out with the flux today. Very impressed, although I need a couple more batteries. Found a great new place for bashing, with large Tarmac and gravel options. Despite there being nothing to crash into I still managed to break the chassis stone guard on one side! Anyway, the car was excellent, even though I ran it on gravel on the Tarmac wheels/tyres (not the Block ones, the WR8 Flux ones). On 2S batteries outright speed seemed similar to the WR8 nitro, although with much faster off the line acceleration. Took a few video clips with my new Sony HDR-AS15. Not a patch on the Rally Freaks ones I'm afraid, but a couple of reasonable shots in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobby288 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 the motor/esc and battery tray compared to the engine/fuel tank extra servo.. esc's and motors cost a bit more than nitro engines.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
