mydoddy69 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 When you say the wires are coming out wrong I can't understand why as the etronix you linked is the same as the savox ?? Personally that etronix looks like it's about the same spec as stock but if you where happy with that then go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) The height of the mounts can be got around with a few washers as yours mounts in something like the mt4 i think from what i have seen,so depending on where you need to fill the gap to the mount just add a few washers a bit like this If it throws the arm out to much just raise it or lower by either adding a washer to the ball end or mounting the arm from underneath ?? just a thought and might save you a few quid Have a play around a pack of washers is like a pound of ebay Edited September 14, 2014 by mydoddy69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I can only see this as a sign there ending the production ?? They did a similar thing on the kalahari / kemora then discontinued it !! I'd be a little weary buying one as parts support has always been hit and miss just ask Devin he has waited months and months for some parts to show up !! If indeed it is going to finish production then you could be throwing your cash in the bin !. If on the other hand they just dropped the price as they got fed up earning a good profit and wanted to share some back with the rc community then this is fantastic news !!.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devin Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yeah I was ticking same thing they have a bad reputation of discontinuing products however there are multiple vehicles on the same platform so I'm not sure what they are doing as other places are still selling them at the normal price 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devin Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) I have contacted horizon hobby about it and they said that "they have no plans of discontinuing the Halix line of vehicles any time soon" Edited November 29, 2014 by Devin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danb1974 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Riiight, that's what they said about mcpx brushed, while they were clearing stocks at half price Watch the price, when it drops significantly, then it's about to get discontinued Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally a good rc truck will have parts support for a good while after there discontinued, but these have had very bad parts support since their release date so i'd be a bit sceptical on buying one now .. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
