Does anyone else just buy stuff for the sake of it?

 

I’ve been trying to revive some micro T’s I have and trying different motors etc. Now I know this motor won’t fit, but the ESC will work and I found this combo on Amazon for the princely sum of £2.85 so I bought it anyway! Paid £16 for an almost identical combo the week before.

Yip , I have a few light kits for the crawlers and random scale accessories like little batteries and tubs etc and a pack of scale gnomes that fit quite nice in a trx 4 roof rack but they kept falling out so didn't use them...just cheap things you think **** it worth a punt 😆

Surpass pinions are what I use in the pirates.  they're pretty tough

I ordered them from amazon not knowing what brand was gonna come. I've had a few things by surpass and been pleasantly surprised how good they are

To be honest everything apart from the servo in the Pirates is Surpass.  and it's that good I'm going to use it all when I replace the buggy next winter

Also...new Rotostart rod (wasn't expecting a genuine HPI one but that's what came).  225mm cause the one that came with my cheapy rotostart backplate was too short for decent, straight, rear entry.  I had to go in at an angle last week.

Technically not the postman, I went to the amazing TTP Models to pick these up. I werent quite happy with how Id installed the rear sticker surround on my NSX and these were the closest avaliable. Technically Ive paid £15 for 1 sticker, but at one point I was considering buying the whole TT-02 NSX for the sticker soo

Tony was amazing as usual and sold me just the sticker set! Thanks again!
