everclear1984 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Surely the postal damage was the delivery company's mistake, not MS? Or was it not packaged correctly? In which case it would be Hobao's problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not packed correct hence the damage but we have a very good second reply from MS, they are back in the good books, they ask me to peel a bit of the film send pics and they will get a replacement shell from Hobao 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Redback Posted March 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2021 Fixed the gps speedo with a drone battery, also found the gps can be powered from the reciver, so even if your batteries dead you can still get data woohoo. Gave the DR10 its first speedcheck 🐌 Did try another pass 39 every time, seems thats how fast they come as stock. Upgrade wise probably going to take out the 3000kv motor and put in a 4400kv+ and max10stc so can try it on 4s later 🤕 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can defintly go up some pinion teeth for a decent speed boost on that setup. Edited April 1, 2021 by Redback 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone-wolf Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 Im not rushing to get or fit a cap pack, i will be on slow 4s to start any way, but might need one at later date, seems you can make a cap pack very cheap if you have an idea of what mf caps to get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got for it £20 delivered so not too bad 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tomr Posted April 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2021 Seeing how the Jumpshot is out of action at the min I’ve turned my attention to the VS . I think I’m ready for another speed crash....I mean speed run 😬 I’m still waiting on a set of s4 GRP’s to be delivered but I’ll run what I have until they do . 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
