Are there any reputable resellers that you guys can recommend?

Just had an email, out of stock 😭

Does this look right, to me it seems bodged and there should be engine mounts?

They better be guys, I've ordered 2. There used to be a time I'd turn my nose up at anything not Savox, Rhino or Hitec 🤣 Not this time though, cheap and cheerful!

If it helps I will only be running a 6v pack. Can anyone send me some links? I'm a tad lost 😂.

The absolute best servo for £20 is the Jx Ecoboost. I've tried basically all the cheapos out there cos I'm tight on cash lol. This is the best by a country mile. Tonnes of torque and speed

Oh, I do like a dark horse 😂

Around £20 per servo or so, there is as always wiggle room 🤷♂️

Hi guys,
I've been out for a few years now so my knowledge is a little foggy.
I'm looking for servos for my 1/8 buggy and wondering which ones to get, nothing too expensive please 😅.
I've been looking at Hobbyking Servos, seem to have good reviews but are they worth it?
Thanks all.

Hi guys,
Thanks but I got impatient and bought new.

Morning!
Long story short, years ago I did a full circle consisting for Nitro, petrol and then BL so I'm not a noob as such.
I've been given this buggy and had it identified as a Kyosho MP7.5 (thread:
My question is, what is parts availability and cross compatibility like, I'm after a screw kit primarily at the moment. Where do you get your parts?
TIA,
Troops

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a mains charger with a 3pin fussball connector to charge RX packs. Anyone have anything?

thats an MP7.5, with the GX21 engine ... ive got one myself.
yours looks like an early ' sports ' model, with the white body
the only difference, i can notice, from mine, is it has the elbow neck exhaust manifold, and canister type air filter.
edit : i just noticed its missing the front chassis brace bar.
i believe thats normal, for the early models tho. they were only fitted with a rear bar, like yours.Awesome thanks for the ID, is it worth fixing up?
I've been out for a few years having done a full circle involving nitro, 5th scale and brush less.

Hi guys, it's been a while.
My farrier has given me this buggy, it's old, he reckons around 15 years.
Any idea what it is?
-
Any around?

It's a microhobby layshaft.Fitted back in 2010...
-
I can't remember who made it :/
-
I plan to and then give it to dad if I can find a bolt to fit as the manufacturer is no longer trading, I'm hoping the kraken one is the same thread, but I don't really have time to faff around, leaving for bashfest in 3 weeks!You've only broke the bolt, just remove and sell the shaft on or use has a spare. Left hand threads are a little easier to remove. But after 4 years I doubt you'll need a spare, good of abbots though after that amount of time to replace.

It wasn't an FOC replacement, but Jason sorted me out with a good price.
-
I broke my layshaft, can't complain though after 4 years of abuse.
Jason @ Abbots sorted me a solid though, will be getting it fitted tomorrow!
Then should be ready for bashfest!

Guys, i need some hard tires for my Losi 8-te, i'd like a harder compound to try and stop ballooning and preferrably something that will also last.
Also need some decent wheels, ones which won't strip out when bolted to an overpowered 8-t...
Also, what is the best way to tape foams and what with?
Any suggestions and links?
-
As above, need to be usable, don't need to be mounted, prefer a hard compound.
Would love soon pro line badlands or similar.
-
Would you split both sets of wheels?

We all know that clone parts are inferior, there is no other way to describe it.
Original manufacturers make them cheap in order to allow them to sell them at a profitable price, cloners make them cheaper allowing them to sell them cheaper. Cheaper materials = inferior.
It's not a debate as far as i am concerned, anybody who puts clones on par with originals must be deluded.
Has no one ever seen The Sixth Day?
