Having seen mine go 10m in the air and come down quite hard sometimes, I think you're unlucky. I had the CRT pegged as almost indestructible, like double-ard compared to the hyper7.

Yeh, we have a old collage made wooden vacuum former at work. Very handy.

Just going to order some 0.75mm lexan from ebay I think.

Had a couple of runs today with my new vp pro tyre's. They perform really well. However they still balloon enough to catch the body at speed. So as I am making a new body I might trim the whole width of the car down as I can easily loose nearly 2" either side without issues. And it will give loads more for the tyre's to flex without catching the body.



Hit 60mph comfortably today before the tyre's got in the way.

Pulled 66mph today. I know it not lighting but it's my best so far for an all round buggy.

Sorry to annoy guys, have just been landed with selling two Hong nor X2 truggys for a mate, both rollers, one complete the other needing the centre diff rebuilt, plus a new unpainted shell, could anyone give me an idea of how much they are worth so that i can stick them up on the sales section? only been used a few times on astro so barely marked, cheers

[barnestah]

couldn't really say bud, but pictures would certainly help.

[barnestah]

Bit of a clean up and dust of here. Got some shock rubbers.

And polycarbonate ready for new body. But need to wait a bit to get good conditions to mold as I need to bake dry it at home and get it into work with in the hour to reduce moisture intake in the poly.

Looking for the 70 mph mark now...

didn't know we had a thread.

 

 

few pics of my Hong Nor X2 Buggy, converted to brushless, bought form BEZ (site admin) as a roller after he was done using it as a speed car.

 

fitted a hobbywing 150a esc to it, motor is now a 1717 size 2200kv Sirius branded (was using a 1515 to begin with) and she gets run on 5s lipo

 

called her Krystal.

Hi all

 

thought i mite as well post a photo of my hong nor x1 crt, i dont know much about them, but i got this as a roller and did some work on it with some help from someone on this forum, am after a x1 shell if anyone has one for sale, ive just got hold of a hpi 5.9 engine and its turned into an animal lol BUT after doing some jumps, ive just snapped both front shock shafts lol. would like to know how fast this would go, but last time i strapped a phone on to a hpi savage i had, it went 37.5 mph into a wall and was bent like a banana lol, lost sign but i was using 27mhz gear lol

 

[Thunderwolf]

only a 10 - 20 min walk from home.

 

 

hopefully my baja flux will be next over there, once i'm done with building it., that video only covers a small amount of the space there is there.

[shaun17]

Do I sell my recently converted x1 crt, how much will I regret it.. :/

[Ramsay218]

Barnestah upon your request of top speeds I took the rc I my local car park smooth Tarmac no loose chipping as it's freshly laid.. Changed the spur to a 48 to achieve a top speed of 55mph.. I used an app on my phone tested against my 1:1 scale car and is accurate to a tee..

strapped the phone to the rc car with Velcro

[barnestah]

Excellent speed nicely done. What app is that? It looks nice uncluttered and clear.

[Ramsay218]

It's called whitereel speedometer was a free app on iPhone really simple to use I tried 3 different speedos all failed miserably on the 1:1 test apart from that 1

[Ramsay218]

Gunna give the x1cr a proper good clean tonight

[Mitrab36]
