My Tamiya CC01 Pajero with roof rack / lights. Built it a few months back, used like twice. >. Sent from my SM-G901F using Tapatalk

4 of these!!!!

A boat sounds like a good idea, especially if we get some snow:

tell me about it, im kinda fussy when i take m cars out anyway. im too careful

Why does this have appeal to me? I think it looks awesome. For me, as long as nobody gets hurt, the next most important thing is having a good time and I bet they all did!

Was having a quick ganders on the net and looked into the HPI site. Found this nifty little video about how to start and tune the baja (i presume its the same with all petrols). HPI Baja Video Shame it didnt go over how to treat the engine over the first tank or so but i guess thats described in the manual which this fella did tell you to read

Great power and excellent handling characteristics distinguish this buggy,developed from the drivers of many proven competition. Some features: - Motor type: Brushless Electric - Drive: 4WD - Scale: 1:10 - Pre painted body - 2.4ghz radio system Source: RC Car action. This reminds me of marmite, you either love it or hate it?

Plugs fine mate. Turn your low needle to 1 1/4. When you drive it steadily apply throttle and get it moving instead of blipping it. It's probably flooded now. Also is your air filter over oiled?I'm about Wednesday if your not sorted Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've had a few Flysky receivers die on me - but who cares? They are so crazy cheap you just get another and carry on. In contrast the KO system I use for my race cars the receivers are £60 each. Yes its much better than the Flysky, but I wouldn't want to risk one in my boat or beach bashing with my Wheely King, or in the snow with my Blizzard. Flysky stuff is so cheap its basically disposable......

Mid week bump

From what I can tell, there just a refresh from the existing Strada Evo's - though before purchasing I'd get Modelsport to confirm - differences look mostly cosmetic and a new top plate 'style'. I've run a clone of the orig Strada (non evo) in SCT flavour for over a year, and whilst it's not used much now due to 8th scales, considering the price I'd recommend one. Parts are easy to source and cheap, and there's a lot of (non essential) hop ups, though nowhere near what's avail for many of the Tamiya's. The MT version has a design issue whereas the chassis won't bottom out before the shocks run out of travel, which results in bent front dogbones. I've never had the truggy but have an inkling there the same. TC and SCT don't suffer from it.

Throw in some gates and a stop watch I know witch one I would pick however for the money the FTX is a good bit of kit.

yeah i agree Noj, thats why i asked what sort of thing he was after, i think 1/10 may be better for space to use it etc because the XO-1 will need a lot of room

Drop Seanvrs a pm re the X01, personally, I wouldn't say it was a regular use basher platform.....

wow, that boat goes well lol

I would check the engine runs before fitting the kill-switch

If you are using the killswitch on a 3 channel system make sure that the endpoints are set to 100%

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it. Please keep us posted!

I've been pondering this exact same problem for over a month and I personally finally settled for the Absima cr3p. Its reasonably priced has enough features on it and the receiver costs are £13!! I got mine here as it has a couple of rx's to get you going http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ABSIMA-3-Channel-RADIO-SYSTEM-CR3P-2-4GHz-2-Receivers-Hpi-Baja-5b-Losi-/332029177739?hash=item4d4e7b2f8b:g:jPAAAOSwgZ1XrdNq

Made this awhile back, ended up ditching the grip tape as it was ruining chassis'

Plug after removal

The chappy in my shop was really clued up on it, Apparently its all available to view on the government website. There was even more reg's I've just forgotten all what he told me. Did mention something about each new juice/flavour will have to be tested at a cost of £4,500 per flavour! Now that will shut a lot of these smaller businesses down In an instant. As for the tanks...well mine is a cleito with the bigboy mod, so 5mm. However like the guys were saying, to get around this new 2mm ruling there is nothing stopping you from buying the tank in individual pieces therefore it would not be classed as a kit But yep you got it. Government losing wonga hand over foot through smoking decline so got to squeeze it from somewhere else. I mean jeez, it's gonna be like popping down your local dealers back ally in a few years for a bit of blow Yeah mate can I have 10mms of your super strength e juice please, I'm skint though....on tick til payday OK?!!!

Wonder what state the running gear was in at the end - prop would take a hammering surely! Looks great - 'cool' certainly!! Al.

Mountain bike gloves are ideal when control is still needed. Chain Reaction have loads in their sale, I've just picked up these for riding in. A bargain at £10

Yeah great vid. Looked like u 2 had a whole heap of fun! Nice1 rpm not the wheelie bar solution I was hoping for then..... im going to try the skate board trucks diy mod

we should sell up and get bloody boats or submarines with this weather

Ffs. Theyre peeved because theyre not making as much tax to spend on wine & days out for themselves as they were on tobacco. Ill pop into my local vape shop tomorrow & ask about it. Ill have to stock up on vape bits & bobs if this bollocks is coming in

My niece wanted a pink RC car, so it's a perfect time to turn her LaTrax Teton into something more girlish - Barbie Teton! :-)

Here's another installation of our crawlers, my SCX10 and my Dads Scout. Hope you enjoy!

Another Xmas present, this time for my 5 yr old lad Cost me £7 plus postage of £6

Go ahead you know you want one. Have been thinking about different bodies for Outback and remembered one I had used on a CC-01 which is close enough to the Outback wheelbase. Pro-line 1966 Ford F100 pickup.Might get one and try it out. Here's the CC-01 with the body. John

Update. Haven't as of yet tried out the fishing line on the Mashers test. Ended up buying a set of dish rims with Proline Bow ties. Completely changed the way the Revo handles. It now accelerates faster and just handles better all together. New modifications include: Picco 2099 tuned pipe. Answer rc 3 shoe alloy clutch. Separate 17T vented Answer rc clutch bell. Turbo button head (en route from Italy) with Picco medium Turbo plugs. Heavy duty slipper rebuild kit with alloy pads. New high flow fuel filter. Exhaust cooler. To fit the new 3 shoe clutch kit was a bit of a dog. Ended up having to dremel part of the servo housing and increase the size of the transmission slots to move the whole tyranny forward on the truck. All in all the improvements I've seen from the wheels/tyres, clutch and pipe are great. The Revo is running as smooth as butter now. Santa should be bringing me a new body etc for Xmas so well on the way to completion now.

Picked this up Sunday, swapped it for a TL01 Subaru Impreza 2001. This is what it looks like now.

It's not too shabby. The picco p-max puts out going on 3hp which for a 3.4cc is some good going . It's only just been broken in to be fair, hasn't dropped its balls yet so to speak .

hi everyone i am new to this site, i also have the rb one pro just fitted lights to the buggy front and back looks great.

I have been comparing the diff cases to HPi Vorza//D8 ones,whilst the holes in the spur gears are slightly out,the RB V2 diff cases look to be very similar,so if needed the spur and diff case could be fitted,the internal gears look the same. I also noticed that the gold alloy hubs on the R come from the HPi Vorza/D8 lightweight options bin.

Other spurs should fit. But you might have to countersink drill them and use flush countersunk screws.
