LeeMutz Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Haha ok I knew they were good... But what I mean is do they require many hop ups? Will it take 3s standard? Or should I upgrade motor/esc? Want something robust like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everclear1984 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 If you're looking at the Firestorm Flux then yes, it will take 3s as it comes. No hop ups needed other than tbone bumpers. When the suspensions arms wear replace them with RPM ones, other than that just bash it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 If it starts eating spurs, get a Calandra slipper assembly. That's about the only thing to keep an eye on, as others have said, they need nothing out of the box, they're tough little cars. Only real downside is they're 2wd.

Possibly the worst RC that HPI have ever released. We all believe the hype and keep pushing members to buy one, but really, we all tell fibs. What you really want to buy is something made by Nitrotek, because out of the box, nothing is stronger plus their customer service and support is the best in the world, nay, the universe. Not that you'll need it, because their models are hewn from granite and outperform anything else in today's market.

everclear1984 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 2 minutes ago, LeeMutz said: photos as promised That looks very tidy. Get those tbones ordered, they take a few weeks to arrive normally, probably more over the festive period. They'll prolong the life of your new toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeMutz Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thanks will do. Where's the best place to get them? Need a charger and a few more lipo now too is £130 OK? Cheapest one I could find 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Order from t bone direct or on their eBay store. Looks very clean and tidy. No Nitrotek Bug Crusher of course, however, I'm sure you'll enjoy it nonetheless, until it falls apart in your hands and you weep a little.

If you order front and rear tbones together you'll get hit with an £11 fee on arrival, I believe it works out slightly better if you order them separately.
