Got the main build done with added random electronics I had in the draw 😀. Forgot how smooth this 1080 ESC is and found the program card and turned off all the crawler options but this traxxas servo is crazy slow even on 7.4v thinks it's out my trx4. Had to pop the body on see what it looks like and I love it, it's staying on the bench in my room tonight so I can stare at it 🥰

Ran another pack through the Promoto mx today, definitely the most fun iv had with an RC toy in a while.

Omg this is the cutest little thing ever! 🥰😁 Love it!

Used them! Took the Maxx’ Family out! Enjoyed that a lot! Need to get out more often!

Had a parcel from modelsport today, which was unexpected as I only ordered it yesterday morning. Spent a couple of hours getting the upgrades fitted, a bit of a learning curve working on this for sure.

Gave 2 out of the 3 car i took out a good shake down so I can get a good feel of them. Done a school boy error and forgot to charge the lipo in my transmitter so it cut my session short. Must say I'm well happy with the maverick it's like a slightly calm version of my infraction which is better suited for when you got a less space to play with. The typhon grom is like updated mini 8ight buggy. It wants to be driven hard and it and it handles like it's on rails. If I get a chance I'll come back later with the sketer. P.s I didn't clock i had brought 3 red cars recently but they do look good together 😁

Up early with the Slash to enjoy some empty and icy car parks. A lot of fun and it has made me want a larger 6s Mojave or UDR even more so!

New brushless servo for the kagama a nice recommendation from Wolfie1. It's got some go in it I tell ya 😄 nice and fast and plenty of torque 👍. Looks the business as well seems very well made plus came with good quality servo horn 📯. Still got left over sand from the UDR clean up, never ending this sand is gets bloody everywhere 😅

Took the Mojave out around the quarry it drifts like the UDR if you push it but sounds like a rattle can when it's bouncing over stuff doesn't have the beef of the UDR but it's just as much fun 😄 and found some ice to slide about on. And the inner cage thingy ma bob keeps most the **** out 😀 probably about 20 packs in and I really like it, I can why these Arrmas are popular. Only let down is the plastic pivot balls 🤮 reckon they had to save money somwhere they already wearing out.

Got started on the blitzer beetle 😀, these tamiyas kits are well fun to build I can see why some of you dudes build them now. Instructions are easy to follow and fit so nice ...so far 🙃. Yes I know building on carpet is asking for trouble little things go missing but it's comfy down here 😀

My present from Santa (my wife) this year😂

Christened the Maxx Gonna make my own thread on this when I get time. Personally I was impressed with it but Ill elaborate further in my thread when I get chance

Merry Christmas Guys! You're a brilliant bunch Im genuinely glad to be a member here!

Not the postie, Santa BEST XMAS EVERRRRR I feel like a little girl (Tetsuo & Keneda)

An old bicycle that works with gears instead of a chain, dating back to 1900

Been fairly busy with this cute little dude... He's 11 weeks old, called Benny. He's confident and unbelievably well behaved so far for a puppy. He's now got a thing for going after my tiny whoops.

Some Rlaarlo sand paddles for the Jumpshot. That is now 3 x RCs equipped and ready for a beach session next year

Seems some dog egg got on my tyres 🤮 smashed some snow on it and blasted it off.

Took the UDR for a blast in the snow only one or two areas been used as we've had quite a bit of snow. Think I smashed into more snow than actually driving it 😅. Seems someones been cleaning up the mountain bike pathways as found a new jump and a bit of clearing to mess about in. So much snow got in the front took forever to clean all the snow off joys of the UDR 🙄

I built an outdoor table top course for the little rigs 18 months ago and what with the 💩 weather I got busy making one for indoors. Same as before, I cut insulation foam block into shapes to make the course, easily packs away into a box for storage

Did some micro crawling in the scale snow drifts 🙂 it's not melting yet so going have a mess about out n about tomorrow morning.

Ready to go. Not as neat as I wanted but if its staying Ill re solder the motor wires. Paired to my Noble NB4 now. I think Im gonna dremel out some material and fit the upgraded servo too. I gave up last night

Just in time came Injora stands for the little guys 🙂

What did I do to my model today? I didn't box any of them up to send back to Traxxas because there's thousands sunk into them! They're staying with me!

Some rubber glove treatment for a couple of cars destined for a UK beach when the weather gets better. Hoping a double layer is enough to keep the receivers dry when they get hosed down when back home! First car was fairly easy as the receiver just needed shoving in a panel gap but the 2nd I had to move the receiver location and then hope the VHB holds well to latex. Time will tell!

Treated myself to a arrma typhon grom to fill the gap i had from selling my mini 8ight buggy. That was one of the few cars I regret selling. Got a few upgrades for it too as I never leave any of my cars standard. Also got some leds that I'm gonna mod to fit my team corally sketer

As Tanveer said, Supreme are a skateboard brand I think who collab with other manufacturers, heres one with Tamiya a few years ago https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266969277296?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=iZCvUq5oT7S&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=t4BQ8_QoRBC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Now on paper this is a shrunken X Maxx/Maxx with 10th Scale brushless electronics. On paper, thats an incredible recipe. Ironically at £279. The only thing that isnt mini is the price. Thats 10th scale prices….. However. Ive got one. I opened it Christmas Day and here it is with some of its siblings. TRX4M Maxx X Maxx Awwww

Well not the postman. But Santa To continue from previous RC Christmas’ 2023: 2022: Merry Christmas All!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year all! Another year to RC’ing 😉

Wishing Msuk forum guys & gals a very merry Christmas and a fantastic new year.

Senna, Mansell & Schumacher - 1991

All the talk of 1/16th bashers, finally got round to changing radio in the MJX Hypergo as the stock radio has more lag than is good for it, so hooked up a HotRC DS4 radio now its goodbye throttle lag, i can always use the old radio in a crawler of some kind, truck is about 2 years old now and still going strong

Stripped the Mini Maxx down ready for new electronics

Dream I have been out of RC for a very long while as no place to run them. But the other night I had a dream that I had been collecting the early Tamiya cars and had the shelves up. As my alarm went off, I was thinking of what cars to buy. Then after a while I said to myself what am I doing, lol

An exciting haul of some 3M pads plus some fixings, body clips and bearings from RCBearings. This year I am trying to focus on having a small stock of spares and repairs to keep everything running since last season already felt too short with a very wet spring. I don't want to lose time to unexpected breakages going forward.

Got some dirty today. Now to spend 2 hours cleaning and drying them!

I don't know who Rich is but your tyres are telling him to 'BEGood'

Some new wheels and tyres for the DR8. Size is basically identical to stock which is what I wanted, and will hopefully give a bit more grip. Knew this in advance but downside is they aren't glued but for £34 delivered I can't really complain. But I will as I hate glueing tyres 🤣

Started off the maintenance on the UDR, it's a job and half these things are good thing I love it. Front all done just needs putting back in..sooo many screws for just the front 🙃 and seems I've collected most the sand from the quarry where I run it, it gets everywhere!!

I'm a dog guy, always have been, lost 2 dogs within a few years and are petless currently. With me working longer hours, and having an 11 month year old, I really think a cat would work well for us...... hmmm

Wishing every one every where a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

I have a heated jacket that i wear this time of year to go out with the rc’s but there is 1 thing i think all these heated jacket companies have overlooked, heated gloves that you just plug into wires in the sleeves of the jacket, having this option would have 100% made me buy that particular brand of jacket over any other

Decided I didn't want to stand out in the cold ripping the bashers about so in my infinite wisdom decided to go and hang around a wood for four hours with next to no wind cover and get blasted with cold winds and rain on and off for most the trip out 🙃 Still loved every second was well covered up apart from me finger tips, I need get some good rc compatible gloves.

hmm interesting and give me something to do whilst sitting on the throne

The worlds best known most cost effective anti depressent because science

Took the Big Rock apart and as expected, the rear input gear was totally trashed. I forgot how much muck gets trapped under the motor mount. Should have checked on that far earlier. Does anyone use any specific wipes when working on stuff like this? Know in the US they have their CowRC wipes which look good and didn't know if there was a UK equivalent which is kind to plastic and bearings.
