We have 22 functioning RCs between us, 20 of which are Tamiyas. And there are enough parts under our bed to build at least another 2 more... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GilbertRC1 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I used to help a friend work on his original Grasshopper 2, that thing was an absolute nightmare. When the throttle was working the steering gave up, when we swapped out the steering servo ( yep you guessed it!) the throttle servo packed up. Once both servos were functioning the motor died and the acoms transmitter as well! In the end he sold it and bought a re-release grasshopper after having a go with mine. Ben.
