      Ahhh, you were one of the lucky few lol.

      A handful of peoples accounts were fine, most of us had to sign up again, although as I say, I didn't bother.

      This site does everything so well why would you need another forum? 

      I do frequent a brand only one beginning with a T though if I am honest! 

  3. So I had no idea Horizon set up a .co.uk version of Tower Hobbies? Prices in GBP and shipping via DPD😮

    1. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      But are the prices typical UK rip off prices?

    2. J.K

      Yes!:lol: After a quick look around they're a fair chunk more expensive than MS.

      Yup... As expected, I didn't even visit the site to know :lol:

      I've run Savox for years and never had any issues at all with them, wasn't even aware of that actually.

      You won't have any problems, I know of at least 20 servos running on Spekky gear with no issues bud.

      Good to know, cheers Dan!

      Glitch with petrol kill switches mayb. Otherwise its just servo chatter people talk about. How noisy savox are but thats most radios. The flysky gt2b controls ours dead silent though. I wish i knew why.

      Awesome.  Mine arrived Fri, going back today as missing most of the kit.  Very annoyed, especially as the crap weather meant I had plenty of opportunity to build it.

    3. J.K

      There's a kit? Mine came as a roller! :lol:

      No kit, mine was a HN.  I meant mine as in new RC.

      Can’t do any harm to hit them with a cheeky offer, they used to be my LHS before I moved away, very approachable guys :good:

      I think for postage they just don't have enough options, most shops postage starts at £4.40 which is recorded first class, yet for something small like an rx, it's only £1.80, even a bit less for shops.

      I actually had a look through to see if they had anything else I fancied, but alas they don't, I need something new to build, even though if I buy something now it most likely won't arrive until the New Year.

      Going stir crazy at the moment.

      Mine arrived today.  Plain bagged like they've been removed from kits but I'm more than happy.

      Batteries, whatever chemistry, are not 100% efficient. Consequently, if you want to have a certain amount of power available from the battery, you have to put more than that in.

      I see it's been replaced with a "sponsor" section which is just a chinese phone/watch company spamming itself to death :lol:

      Glad he is all good. Nice to hear from a responsible dog owner, I agree vets fees can be eye watering but as you said they are one of the family. I've lost count of the amount I've spent on my 4 nutters but I never complain when the bill lands, just find a way to pay and carry on enjoying my dogs.

      Put blue thread lock for now it should keep it on for sometime

      Which car? Slash? New nylocs are cheap enough. The nylon lock wears a bit each time the nut is removed/re-attached. I've used threadlock a few times, it just needs to fully cure to be effective.
