stef1 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 well, stormbringer made it home this time without a sore leg, almost a sore head though and i made it with just a burnt finger damn wheel bearings ive got my car all fixed up and ready to fight again, ended up grinding down some M8 washers to fit behind the wheel squares to space them out from the bearings, so no more toasty fingers and melted wheels hopefully. i would be lost without my bench grinder, i can bodge anything on it almost. sy100 - that guy that was with you was a bit insane he was doing like 50ft jumps and didnt even break anything?? another good day, albeit a little shorter than last time. when are we meeting again then? stef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stef1 Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) lol ouchey ive still not worked out what was up with the radio gear on the dbx i might just get some 2.4ghz gear for it if it keeps acting up when i done the model boats a few years ago, i found that a couple of my servos would twitch sometimes. turned out that it was cheapy servos causing it. i wonder if it could be a similar problem? do you have another set of xtals you could try? im also thinking about the 2.4ghz system, a spektrum can be had for what? about £85? and atleast if i did get one i can get a remote killswitch for my engine lol owned lol indeed, why women should stay away Edited April 18, 2010 by stef1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) i used to do model rc boats a while back as well and recently taken up doing them again hence the tug boat in my avatar, whered you sail yours ? i used to sail at inverlieth pond and take part in comps at a few places in scotland Edited April 18, 2010 by Stormbringer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yrkoon Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) i recently switched the receiver out of my dbx for the one in my brushless stinger that had some cheapo 2.4ghz stuff to test it and now the problem is gone im guessing something in the car was resonating at 27mhz and causing interference since the same thing happened at the quarry we go to as well, since putting in the stingers 2.4 receiver the dbx has been running like it should be so good and cheap 2.4 upgrade there and long range do any of you guys play pc games and have steam btw? my steam id is yrkoon99 if any one wants to add me and have a game at some thing (multiplayer games are always better when you can put a face to the name) Edited May 15, 2010 by Yrkoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
