And Knight mate I know its no comfort mate but I've been there, just keep going, in the words of the great Chumbawumba ' I get knocked, but I get up again, they ain't never gonna keep me down'.

sparky_mw Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) me an hyperandy would have come but we was bashing yesterday with a scate board ramp purchased from argos and i went up the ramp full throttle and landed on the right front wheel and snapped my front hub and steering knuckle and hyperandys pull start is stuck out hopefully my parts will be here tomoz an andy will get his fixed soon too Edited August 4, 2008 by sparky_mw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largeagain Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) Ahhh thats bad luck fella's On a simalar note, we didnt have much luck at all, Ghosty turned up with his mate (Good Bloke BTW and runs a GV Hunter) so there was 3 of us and me and his mate was both on the same frequency, and didnt have any spare crystals And Ghostly just could not get his Hyper started for love or money So we didnt end up having a decent bash at all, as me and the guy couldnt run ours at the same time, so was only short runs each at a time, but i still managed to loose a screw from my shocks, and again no spare with me Ooooo the joys of RC's eh ?

GhostlyRock Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I'm up for it anywhere. think I've sorted out starting probs, simply a loose screw on the starter backplate I think! Got to test it yet, but seems ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk3miniturbo Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi Guys, We should be up for going out whenever I am still waiting for the roto-start to arrive but I have a pull start working, even if it is a little short. I have also cracked another fuel tank so that needs a little repair. I cant even put the new shell on it until I have sorted the tank On the plus, Marcs Hyper ST and 7 pro are both running. The ST is now running a new diff oil set-up and has a set of CNC front knuckles. Just set a date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostlyRock Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Guess who spoke too soon! Its stripped the tops of some of the teeth on the roto start! Ordered the new bits, I think,the right ones, if not, it'll be back to the pull start....oops just remembered, that broke. Hmm, either order a new pull start or starter box or both. God, it never rains but...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperandyuk Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 unlucky mate sparkys hypers fixed now it was the same knuckle that broke on mine lol my pull starter spring keeps poppin off so im looking for a rotostart back plate so i can use my cordless drill now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostlyRock Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 guess who ordered the wrong bits! Still I've got a spare one way bearing and fan now. New parts are special order only, will take about a week. Seems like I'll probably have the Leopard and Hyper running again about the same time. I just wish the Hypers pull start hadn't broken when I took it off. Anyone got a starter box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largeagain Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Well i am waiting for a fly wheel, but the payment should have got to its destination by today, so all being well i will be able to get the engine run in by the weekend So lets set a date ?
