Bashed them! Little run up the heath on my own today (not tearing off tights with ma teef ๐) Only about half a pack through the buggy as that's all that was left in the tank. I'd taken it to a mall a few days prior. Still waiting on those wing parts to come but they're in the country now. (might mod the 'stuctural' wing mount and delete the wing all together as I think it'll look awesome without it) Next up was the little beast in the middle... My care regime for them seams to work quite well. Water tends to 'bead up' on surfaces and the whole thing is easier to clean. and finally the Mad Max mobile on the left of the bench This thing rips on stock setup and battery. All I've changed are the rear tyres and removed the wing. All done. drained a pack through each of them. Small breakage on the WLToys today but that's all the damage there was and that part was hot glued on anyways. Edit: Spelling7 points

The crawler course is looking pretty good. This is not all of it. The cement is dry enough to get a go hopefully before the rain starts.7 points

Finished second in the oOple Off Road Open Series in the vintage class! This was my first ever race buggy way back when I started driving. The car to have at the time was the Associated B4, but I couldn't afford one of those so I ended up with the older B3 instead. Decided last year to dig it out and give it a rebuild so I could drive it again. It's the first time I've raced the car in about 13 years. I never had a single good result with this car, I don't think it ever even won a race, so I really wanted to change that so it can enjoy it's retirement with a good story to tell! I couldn't quite get the setup I needed unfortunately, the car would either bounce around wildly or grip roll aggressively depending on the changes I made. I decided to go with the grip roll as this was more predictable. The rain helped a lot on Saturday as the grip roll wasn't an issue in the damp. But the finals on Sunday were dry, which was a shame. Here the B3 stands with the backup chassis, just in case it was required (luckily it wasn't). And here I am with the P2 "trophy" (actually an oOple branded bottle opener ๐คฃ). The pink and yellow Losi won overall, a really fast car in the dry that I simply couldn't catch, but I was beating it on Saturday in the rain, clearly two different setup directions! Also Modelsports own Simon in P3, finished just one point behind. I'm not sure whether he's a member on here, but thank you for the excellent racing if you are! Fantastic racing and an excellent weekend.7 points

Kit arrived from Amazon in the US in 4 days Also picked up a set of J Concepts Renegade tyres on Aggressor rims from MS And a nice AGFRC servo from SMD Motor and esc wise Iโve got a Castle Copperhead in my parts box, Iโll probably pair it to a Castle 1412 2100kv and run 3s No idea on the body yet, this is a longer term project so progress might slow after the initial kit/roller build ๐6 points

Drove it, rolled it, crashed it, soaked it, got it stuck, winched it out, lent it out and had a blast. First proper RC day out Iโve had in a couple of years, took Krystal out to play in the SST quarry and had an absolutely fabulous time - itโs really reminded exactly what I love about this hobby.6 points

Lowered the blazer high trail. Looks better than the stock height. Still needs a little more. Fitted some 1.9 beadlocks with the largest 1.9s I had. Removed the bump stops. The rear is fine. The front will need a short bump stop to stop the front tyres rubbing. Has a load of articulation.6 points

had the wild one out yesterday for its first test run and i love it, had a problem with range which i supsect was due to the slightly dodgy servo i put in it, found a much better servo for it but not tried it yet, also had to dremel a few wee bits to get my big batteries to fit nice ๐ my wee neice was out to play with me as well on the first test run and was all excited for me to play with her again out side the house so let her try the grasshopper, she knows how to do full speed ahead into things or steering but not both at the same time lmao and no damage to the hopper ๐ think ill get that wee mini ftx crawler i won from here charged up as the transmitter is tiny and a crawler will let her get used to the controls ๐5 points

Added some bits to the roof of the wee landy Ive got some hi clearance links arrived today and awaiting the brass ''C'' hubs with couple other bits So hopefully all may be here and get fitted over weekend4 points

Oooh, just had a parcel land, opened it and thought it was the wrong colour on first glanceโฆ. Ready to be fittedโฆ.. Itโs quite a bit darker than the online pics, i think if its backed with silver, it may brighten it up a touch. Next up is the Ir40 lmaoโฆ.4 points

Got a body and tyres for the Baja this morning. Decided to go without the side pods and seeing as the Flux version doesn't bulkout the area where the petrol engine goes i trimmed the body right back on both sides. Also cut down the underside plastic skid plate to make it better match the contours of the chassis.4 points

I have been collecting up a set of parts to let me put together a new helicopter to round out my collection of small Eflite helis. I had an mCX, the s300mCX, the tandem twin mCX, but there was one last thing I needed to add to round out the set. I had one white body set, which I have used here as it seemed to fit better. Looks tidy enough, but it can look better.... when you turn the lights out ๐ frame, landing skids, swashplate, tail and upper and lower blades all in 'glow in the dark' plastic.4 points

My injora tarantula Trx4m. Can't call it Traxxas because there isn't one traxxas part on it. This thing is a little spider, I love it.4 points

And so it beginsโฆ This was going to be a quick and easy refresh - a new body (that I bought 3yrs ago) and a new set of wheels (that bought last week)โฆbut that plan didnโt last long ๐คฃ So nothing had changed with my 10.2 since my last update 3yrs ago.. Itโs funny seeing my first attempt at roll cage againโฆWAAAYY TOOO heavy but I learned a lot about brazing. The new MST JP1 body still looks great to me. But those old wheels have gotta go! Money canโt buy you love..but it can buy you new wheels ๐ This is where my cunning plan started to go sideways. I trimmed the body when I first got it, but hadnโt noticed it didnโt really line up that well on the chassis - itโs not a mile out but it would bug me not sitting square on the frame. I donโt think itโs the body thatโs twisted, I think itโs the chassis - I mean, it has more holes in it than a second hand dart board and has been apart more times than I can remember! So I decided a new chassis was called for and after a bit โsurfingโ Iโve settled on the Rock Pirates Interceptor chassis along with some other goodies from RPRCโฆthe shipping is ยฃ25 regardless, so might as well cover all the bases and make the most of it. Anyway, thatโs it for now folks ๐4 points

Servo is excellent, loads of power Combo is amazing, the low control and drag brake and holding power is excellent, plenty enough wheel speed on 2s with a 18t pinion Tyres worked well Could do with a touch more weight up front, brass knuckles would sort that Overall Iโm really happy with the build, one thing Iโve said to myself is this isnโt a shelf build, so it wonโt be getting the normal AJ post running clean up, a quick brush down and thatโs it ๐4 points

Looks good man ๐คLove a Tamiya me. I'm desperate to get myself the BBX BB-01 but 300+ squid is beyond my fun money at the moment especially as i want to put the castle system in it and the slipper clutch like TomleyRC did3 points
