vectra Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 I'd scratch the menace off the list if I was u Yup. I already did I heard they chew up the gears if used on "stoney" surface. I will probably order one of these T-Maxx from Australia Anyone order from them ? I got some cells from them last year and did not have to pay any customs etc. rofl Wonder if i would get away with it this time If I do I would have it in for around £194 If I buy one from MSUK It will cost £219 plus delivery..

dazzi220 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 that is one of many menace problems, coincedently mine just chewed up the gears for ne reason at all. I've had it since march its hardly been used cos it always broke but wen it was working everytime it went out it broke apart from 1 times. Its been rebuilt twice and this is the 3rd engine which I also think is knackered now cheap weak crap and all the other schumachers look the same The T maxx is old now go for a sav alot stronger to, best truck on the planet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muhuha Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) well the c/f chassis is supported by a 6mm alloy plate which goes from gearbox and supports the engine too. Plus everything else if sorted bulkheads shouldnt need replacing, good strong servo and engine. stronger and lighter wheels (rpm) Edited December 5, 2005 by muhuha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schummachers are known for being onconsistant, some people get great engines, others get ones that fall apart after a few runs. My Mi2 has been very realiable but getting spares for it is not easy and customer service isn't great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revorussell Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 the engine on my menace is the one thing that has been ok its just the rest of the pile of c*ap that falls apart every 5 mins it should be known as the slowest r/c not the fastest as they never go anywhere apart from the workshop to be fixed that is. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamite25 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Well the thunder tiger 21 engine that Schumacher use in there nitro cars is a great engine if tuned right and will last a long time but if not it will wear very quickly and die and then a new one will be needed,i would blame the schumacher cars and not the engine as thats the only good thing in the cars.
