  1. Maybe the idea was there but a bit impractical. Nitroholic, do you have to fit an adapter to use FG monster truck wheels on the Baja?
  2. lol....it'd look pretty awesome with blackouts all round But I was thinking prob just the rears.....
  3. Hi, Has anyone fitted Maverick Blackout MT wheels to a Baja 5b? And if so, were there any problems.
  4. Bugger, just had another look at the product. In big red letters WILL NOT WORK WITH CHOKED CARBS what a dunce!
  5. Hi Nitroholic, It's a DDM 3/4" from Freeprawn Racing.
  6. Hi, I want to change my air filter on my Baja. I have bought a velocity stack to fit which will enable me to have a choice of filters. However.........I tried to fit the stack yesterday but once fitted it obstructs the movement of the choke. I have tried to establish (via Google) if this is ok and normal, or if I need to order a particular stack but seem to have hit a dead end. So my question is. Can I fit my stack or not? I don't want to ruin my engine so I refitted the original for now. Thanks in advance for any help. Please ignore......Topic has been resolved.
  7. Thanks, Nutty Prof, TT-01 diffs fit the TT-02 ? Do you mean the whole assembled diff (the bell shaped housing with the internals). Built it ball raced and have alloy prop on order. Are uprated shocks a good idea?
  8. Hi all, Need some help. Built myself a TT-02 and fitted an 8.5T brushless motor. Powered by a 2S 1300mAh li-po (just to road test) its very quick. In fact it's so quick the tyres are becoming a problem. They are deforming just above half throttle. So a coulple of questions. 1) Is there anyone who has had this issue? 2) Are there banded tyres that lessen the deformation? Any information would be helpful as I seem to have hit a brick wall.
  9. Thanks for your post logik, I am having the same problems.I'm not new to this hobby but this Brush/Brushless ESC was not the way I wanted to go. I'm sure the product is good enough (when it works) but I would prefer to go down the Brushed ESC route to get me going, then if I choose, hop up to Brushless. Maybe Modelsport got a faulty batch and I got one to?
  10. Ouch! that hurt Exhaust sorted. HPI box style muffler, a silicone coupling, and a silencer. Runs lovely and much quieter, ideal. Now shock sox.
  11. Bit late on parade but YES they do work. I had a tuned pipe which was far to loud for running around most places. Replaced it with the stock HPI muffler added a silicone pipe (to couple the two) and a stand alone silencer. What a difference. Haven't noticed a change in performance because these petrol monsters are so bloomin fast ! Maybe one day I'll want more and more speed, but when that day comes (it's still a long way off) I'll bang in a 30cc unit. What route did you go?
  12. Just a quickie, been out with the car today and managed to shake free the screw holding the throttle linkage to the carb Anyone know what size it is (was!) Looks about 3mm and maybe 6 deep (pan head) Can anyone confirm or correct my guess? Cheers
  13. Me again Well the 3GR solved my problems. No chattering servos (rock solid) and the Jolly Roger switches in and out on channel 3 just perfectly. Hope this may help save someone some grief when setting up the radio gear in a gas 1/5th..... Now on to the exhaust !!!! Far to loud.
  14. Turnigy 1270HV. 35kg at 6.0v !!
  15. I've got the flat ones on my Rovan 260S (inner and outer) fit lovely and look great. Don't forget to order their course thread screws, much better than the stock ones.
