  1. you can cut Titanium alloy with a hacksaw, it's just whether you want the bad finish. Titanium allow is actually quite nice to machine with. Al alloy, look for 7068, L168, L160. 6082 (L111) is a medium strength alloy but I'm sure it would be good enough.
  2. Thanks Is the single servo mod easy? Any guides anywhere?
  3. Hi, quick question: I got the LST2 out from deep storage and found that the two servos are shot. Can someone recommend a good drop in replacement that are not too costly. Thanks in advance
  4. I have another question: The default ESC setting is to Auto-Lipo. I assume this is still fine if I am using a nimh, as it just sets a cut-off voltage.
  5. opened the box!!!!! What a sweet looking bit of kit. Had a battery in it just to do some initial checks. A bit noisy, 'cog' noise, is this normal? The mesh looks good.
  6. hurrahhhh, RTR ordered through Modelsport. Price matched also, great stuff. Going to use some of my nimh batteries (got a 10.8v 4500mah one for my rustler) until the next pay day and I can order some Lipos.
  7. great thx, looks like they dont stock the nano-tech in Europe which is unfortunate.
  8. anyone - any comments on this battery: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__14388__ZIPPY_Flightmax_5200mAh_2S2P_30C_hardcase_pack_DE_Warehouse_.html
  9. Ok, in this 'expensive' country can someone tell me where to get Lipo batteries for a reasonable price. I see a lot of recommendations for Hobbyking but then also a lot of people getting stung by 'Her Magisty' and the post office.
  10. i'm taking a look at the nano-tech 6000mah 2s 65-130c lipos that AJ got, and for the price they look very tempting. The hobbyking Europe site seems not to have much, so I assume they come from the states? How long does delivery take? Also I assume the chargers listed above will do them justice. Apologies for the questions but I have only run nimh batteries to date. I will probably get a pair as I could also use them for my erevo (assuming I change the connector on the losi) Thanks
  11. I'm probably going to go for the for rtr as the motor esc combo looks pretty good value for money
  12. http://www.modelsport.co.uk/orion-advantage-iq404-lipo-charger/rc-car-products/40118 http://www.modelsport.co.uk/overlander-sport-7.4v-3900mah-25c-lipo-stick-pack/rc-car-products/38673 would these be ok for this kit?
  13. If this is the case then that looks like quite a good set up anyway. Had a quick search for this kit and it isnt cheap. Though I appreciate price doesnt necessarily mean quality.
  14. can someone tell me what esc and motor is fitted in the rtr version? Is it any good and is the Fusion Exceed Ultra 550 a better set-up? Thanks again
