.AJ. Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 It needs backing with a bright red, I only had white at the time and it came out a weird pink 🤣🤣🤣 Definitely do some test sprays before committing 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I’ve only found the met red to be rubbish, the run of the mill colours and the flouro/neon stuff are excellent 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hell horn. Posted March 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 28, 2022 A lovely box of parts from Spencer Clarke(if any of you know him?) The bed is my design which he printed for me. As my old printer was dead(new one is hear just needs building now) Bumpers are his design. Perfect fit for all of it. 46 pw build is getting closer to being finished too. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kpowell911 Posted March 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 29, 2022 After spending my years being a Servo Snob, I tried a JX46kg from Ali Express. I originally ordered one for my X Maxx, but that came and went in the Summit as that badly needed it. I was very impressed! So I ordered two more JX46 KGs. One for the X Maxx, one for the TRX4. However I then found this. I guess its the one up and will be 55kg and 0.10 at 7.4v off BEC, so this is going in my X Maxx. I paid more and got this in the UK (probably off a chap who buys 10 at a time on Ali Express and sells them at a profit). But it came today. Still waiting on the X Maxx upgraded steering stuff, so cant fit it, so couldve waited and ordered from Ali Express 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
