    I fancy building a solid axle monster truck, the TLR LMT looks a good base but don’t fancy importing one from the US, I can’t really find any other chassis I like though 🤔

      I know Jeff Bezo's is the big bad guy, but sometimes, the fact Amazon is so popular and successful is because its unbelievably good. Ive had some crazy RC deals off there, and like @.AJ. has experienced, its literally arrived within minutes haha! Remember the cheap Arrma Infractions?

    Im hearing rumours that MJX are bringing out a 1/10th hypergo MT, and that it will trash Arrma bl3 stuff as full metal gears all way through and 4S out of box, should be a total winner

      Will I be able to pop to the shop 2 miles from my house to get parts though like I can for an Arrma?

    These guys bring up a good point considering how many F1 drivers are or have been involved in RC it would be nice to see them supporting RC tracks. Such a shame some really iconic and important track are being forced to close ☹️

      Lets say, for example, Lewis put up the money for the running costs for a year. People still have to go. The issue isnt the finances, its lack of users unfortunately

    I am now finished with Injora, latest order from them is more than likely going in bin, one wheel wont disassemble to get tyre on so money wasted again

      My experience with their Beadlocks was terrible too, I also binned them, but I thought it was just me

    Happy Bank Holiday Weekend Guys! Had an extremely busy week  for the first time projecting managing a 'huge' (for me) job! Much more money, but honestly not sure its worth it. Glad its over. Time for 4 days off with my Mrs & Daughter, few beers and catch up on some R/C and eBay! Hope you're all well!

      Ive messaged my local modelshop to chase up my Audi A4 as I noticed they were in stock in some places. Not there yet but hey all is on track. Weathers pants for actual rc use =/

    I see Wheelspin models are having a Tamiya open day April 20th

    1. Kpowell911

      Kpowell911

      Its a great venue,  but it’ll obviously all be new Tamiya Stuff, and the only new Tamiya Im waiting for Ive got on order at my local small modelshop as I think its important to support them

    So I have an RC on the way from California. I've paid (A ludicrous amount to be honest) through eBay's Global Shipping, so all fee's/customs etc are paid in theory. It left California on the 29th Feb, and it arrived at the ParcelForce Depot 3.6 miles from my house at 10am this morning. Wehn do we think it'll be in my hands? Place your bets!

      @Lone-wolf Stormbringer was the closest haha

      Its a 'cheap' Tamiya. I won it for $150, cheapest I can see over here is £399 brand new in box, although I was offered it cheaper. Unfortunately, eBay did the postage & tax so it cost me £230 all in but not too bad. Ill get pictures shortly.

       

      @Strugglecuddle7 The Raminator does nothing for me Im afraid. Its too big to work.

      @Stormbringer I admire your confidence

       

      @Redback I find your lack of confidence worrying

       

      @wolfie1 I think youre the most realistic.

      Hmmm. Just came to post this. Im more interested than I was before. Great video to be fair. $699 is cheaper than I thought will see how that translates in the UK though

    Saw this on the 'Tamiya Legends' Facebook page. Thought it deserved a mention here.
