What did the postie bring you today?

I not really been posted this.  I kinda just made it.  

 

My Glow plug spanner was cheap and from a fasttrax nitro starter set.  Inside the 'socket' has no retention for the plug so as soon as you turn it upside down the plug falls out.  Completely forgot to keep an eye open for this when buying it so fool on me I suppose 🤷‍♂️.  anywhos will i had the savage up the heath the other week my uncle suggested after some struggling to put a short bit of nitro fuel line on the end of the plug and just start it with that and then tighten it with the spanner.  Worked great.  So the other day I had a thought of combining the two 🧠

 

little bit of trial and error and a dab of tyre cement later...

Does it count if I'm the delivery person? to myself? 😄

 

Meet the new project car

Yes, it's Hobao Hyper 7!

 

What's the plan?

BRUSHLESS 😄

 

but also a Semi donor!

It's listed as a runner, so the aim is to get it stripped of Nitro Gubbins and get my Older Beloved Hyper 7 Running again!

Look of a nitro buggy is just classic for me they look spot on even if the sound of a million angry bees would keep my ears ringing for days doesn't put me off the fact they are lovely!

oh the greasy noisey chaos fun that nitro is

 

it's a shame that the feeling of owning a nitro is now dying/dam near dead 😞

 

OH I do miss the scream as you backflip them with it @ WOT

 

My first backflip was a TM bash, it was on camera and I love it!

Some steel balls that should hopefully fit both my 4s outcast and 3s senton. Also Some ‘HD’ e-clips which I’m pretty sure are just a different colour to the standard ones!

All fitted perfectly to both. Which also means 4s shocks will fit the 3s stuff. The outcast fronts are few mm longer than the senton rears.

Arrma fury 223s turned up today. Fancied a Traxxas slash but these are just such good value and seem to be a bit tougher going by the reviews online.

Loving the new colours on these Arrma RCs
