And run it this morning. ESC is great - feels like a Hobby Max5/6/8 - need to play with the program card and see what can be changed. About 12 mins runtime from full charged set of batteries to 3.85v left in packs. Temps - hardly got warm. plenty of room to gear up Brakes a bit strong but sure that can be programmed to be less. forgot how crap the stock servo is on grass. Anyone want to buy my old Alien ESC Sweet! What voltage did you run? Was that the 380Kv? What pinion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably misquoted somewhere, who knows. In other news; in my quest to cool down the front output cup on the CD of my beloved X2, I've ordered a tub of one million wt oil, I'll report any improvements as and when the stuff lands.

RCbutcher Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 More tamiya paint at £5.50 free post im stocking up. 80% used tins from 3yrs ago still worked fine for me so i dont mind sitting on them. £10 per tin is way too much. This seller has a big selection of ps paints mostly £5.50ish. He ships them in individual boxes which is strange. I orderd 3 tins and got 3 boxes on diffrent days. But not complaining lol. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F222717853144 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 10 hours ago, stretch said: LED lights which cost £1 each and some Super Swamper clones Those tyres work so well, they really surprised me on my Yeti My haul today was quite substancial. Not the postman, but I collected a Losi 5ive-T, Baja 5B SS, Traxxas Summit, HPI Trophy Truggy Flux, XTM XT2E, FTX Viper, Proboat Blackjack, crap load of LiPos, radio gear, servos etc... In sad circumstances, but needs must. Now I need to start cleaning. It's irnoic, I just spent the last four days gutting my bedroom, threw out 4 bin bags of crap, repainted my walls, it was all fresh, now I've got a load of filthy RCs back in it lol!
