This was posted on DMS Racing's Facebook page about their lc racing order,good news for those waiting on parts and vehicles.

 

"LC Racing has now arrived with us, most spares and options now back in stock, we have recieved some of the kits we have on pre-order (but not all) the following have all arrived; 
EMB-1H mini buggy kit
EMB-1H PRO mini buggy kits
EMB-1 L RTR buggies
EMB Truggy PRO kits
EMB WRC L RTR rally cars
LC12B1 buggy kits 
LC12B1 Combo buggy kits
LC10B5 slipper version kits
LC10B5 Centre diff version kits

Back orders will be being shipped today, most are now fulfilled, but sadly some we are still waiting on. There will be a very small number of kits and RTR left over which will be uploaded to our website later today...".

My order shipped at about 9ish last night, I should get it today as DMS is only 15 miles from me 😂

 

 

Sadly nothing arrived 😭😭😭😭

 

 

Great service as always from them.

Quite an improvement, does the servo make a big difference?

I never had the stock one, it came with a ridiculously high spec one which was a overkill for me so I sold it. It paid for the new servo and servo mount plus some other bits. I just gave it a quick blast in the garden and the new motor definitely has more punch than the traxxas one (which was also sold on).

So did yours start out as the EMB1 buggy, and then get converted to long wheel base?

 

No, a LC12B1 however I got it off of eBay. Normally I don't buy 2nd hand unless I know who's owned them however it was £175 and I got...

 

Lc12b1 buggy RRP £175

Hobbywing 60a SCT ESC RRP £50

Traxxas 380 motor (sold) RRP £50ish

Swana micro servo (sold) RRP £100

Carson controller (sold) RRP £75

Four IP micro batterys RRP £30 X 4 

Spares worth £50-70 

plus some upgrades £50

 

The guy reckoned he spent about £400+ on the lot so even if I needed to spend a bit giving it a service it was well worth what I paid for it. 

 

I am still on the look out for a EMB 1 mind you.

A good deal then, just need that carbon chassis now😉. To be fair I would have bought AJ’s had I not already ordered, but. I’m actually really looking forward to the build

Yes I know, I do keep looking at it, but I can’t justify two!, 😀

At m "worse" I had about 6 different models however that's nothing to some members on here.

Yes, I’m a bit like that with Bikes!😀

Kit arrived today, haven’t had much time, but made a start.

Assembled the diffs, and mad a start on the shocks.

How tight do you do the slipper clutch on these?


also when turning the hubs and looking at the spur from above it appears warped, I have had it apart and double checked it’s all together correct and it seems to be, is this normal?

A quick question on these, What other Wheels/tyres fit these?

1/10 touring wheels and rally pattern tyre depending on where you're running it, I've found these wheels and tyres last pretty well on road use and not bad for loose gravel. I try and go for 6mm offset gives a wider stance but 3mm offset will fit ok. These are on my lwb emb-1 and black version on my mini 8

Thanks, probably will be running it mostly on loose gravel, and Astro in the garden.

would these Schumacher Wheels fit?

Those are 2.2 buggy wheels same size as the lc truggy, they're bigger than the lc buggy wheels, you could get knobbly tyres for the touring wheel

Or wheel and tyre set.
