  1. My son has just fitted a Hobbywing 4700 brushless system to his Blitz, along with a 3 cell lipo. Blimey,it's quick. Bit of a problem now with parachuting! Blitzen Blitz.
  2. CKRC 4 wheel drive Short Course Truck for sale. CKRC alloy chassis, HPI MT2 front and rear ends. Needs a rebuild, but easy project. Fitted with 2.4 Ghz radio and heavy duty servo. Front end fitted with alloy wishbones. New tyres fitted, not tyres in photo. Hobbywing 4700 brushless motor gives high performance. Supplied complete with radio, carry bag, 6000MaH Lipo battery, charger, etc. Listed as spares, but almost ready to go. Asking
  3. Depends on what's needed. If heavy duty, such as filling shocks or major work like diffs, then it's the man cave. Otherwise on my lap in the lounge.
  4. Had a similar problem with my rx.Plugs were in the end,not on top, which would have been OK. Took the rx apart and the works then fitted into a Blitz box nicely. May be it would work for you?
  5. Hi folks. There's certainly a wide variety of methods used.
  6. Just stripped,cleaned and rebuilt the front and back of my SC. 6000 Mah 3 cell Lipo's on charge. New springs fitted.I reckon she's good to go know. Hopefully the bigger batts will give me a decent time.
  7. I'm running Trenchers on my SC. 4 W/D with 3 cell Lipo and a 4700 Hobbywing set up. Quite a heavy beast. Doesn't seem to matter what surface I'm running on. Good tyre.
  8. When I got the CKRC short course,it was only a roller. Now,it's a goer.However,when it came to the radio,I wanted sticks. Had a look round and settled on the Tamco 2 channel system. When I got it,the throttle was on the left, I prefer right. No problem,easily switched round. Then the receiver. It fitted the box on the truck but the box had no lid. The receiver plugs come out of the end so I needed a long box and waterproof. I ended up up with a Blitz box and the receiver wouldn't fit. Bit of thought,I took the receiver gubbins out of it's case and tried it. Voila! it fitted. Bit of re-arrangment of wires and job done. Apparently there are no receivers that will work with this transmitter so I've saved myself a few pounds. Happy bunny.
  9. Fitted a set of Asiatees alloy "C's" to my CKRC. Break no more (I hope). Next job is to strip and rebuild the back end and do the shocks. Got to find a receiver to fit the Blitz box and that will bind with the Tamco tx.
  10. Another angle is to play around with the shocks. Heavier oil,or a different angle on the offending corner.
  11. I wouldn't say there worth importing from the us Only because of hideous charges by the Post Offiice and, of course, VAT. I did have a Groundpounder monster truck and that was good fun. Sadly lost in a house fire.
  12. Saturday was a set of Trenchers, today, a Savox servo, a bag to carry my bits in and a kettle lead for the charger. Still to come is a turnbuckle spanner and a set of alloy servo mounts. Should be in the next couple of days.
  13. I've selected a couple of my favourites.
