  1. Hell has frozen over! In other news, I think I might sell my TRX4M's, I've not used them since Boxing Day 2022 =/
  2. Gonna be honest, I have a BBX, with the slipper clutch and gear diff, and Ive got an expensive sensored brushless system in it. Its cost a fortune and truth be told, its just ok. I enjoy using it, but Id be lying if I felt it was a good buy. Admittedly, I prefer a 4wd, So it could be that, but when I have time, Im going to switch the electrics from the BBX to my Top Force Evo ReRe. I appreciate its an old design, but a carbon fibre’d 4wd Top Force Evo can be had for the same price as the BBX. I know it hasnt got the charm, but you could buy a 4S Arrma/Traxxas/Corally/Associated basher for the £600ish invested in my BBX I admit, what soured me on my BBX, I paid £320 for it. A week later, I paid £299 for an Egress Black Special. A month later, I paid £399 for an Avante Black Special. I know these are old ReRe’s, but to me these are such better value than the BBX, especially considering I have the slipper clutch, gear diff, and spare wheel upgrade, so its effectively a £400+ kit. @Yrkoon if you already have the Wild One, I think youd find the BBX a waste of money
  3. This potion. Its extremely expensive in the UK, but had I found this earlier in my life I wouldve saved countless bodyshells. Ive still got some left but snagged another one when I noticed one in stock
  4. Added the Rere A4 DTM And a Porsche 911 GT1 to build Looking like a hobby shop haha
  5. So this LOOKS cool. Traxxas TRX18MT

     

     

    However, Ive been caught speeding (61mph in a 50mph on the motorway when it dropped to a variable limit 😞 ) Never mind!

      Hmmm jury is out on this 1 will see what upgrades come out for them 

      Having said that might be good for my just over 5 Granddaughter tho :good:

    3. Gaz!

      Gaz!

      Saw that video and whilst on the one hand, it looks really good, but the stuff thats carried through from the regular Trx4m, nice to see that servo is now fitted as stock too. I just dont have the need for one….although if they did a conversion kit and i could get one reasonably priced, who knows?? 

       

      I’m still holding out for a Trx8m variant of this great little rc, that id be all over like a rash!!!:insane:

      nice enough but not for me, i will make do with the hi trail F-150 when it arrives

  6. Is this basically 1/10th touring sized?
  7. Damn! Some of those look incredible!
  8. To be fair it does look magnificent I just wondered if they had randomly gone on an Amazon offer like the Arrma Infractions a while back. Was this TLR LMT not available in the UK or did I just make that up?
  9. That looks amazing mate, typical classic AJ build! How much did this work out at for the kit?
  10. Is this the same as the Dumbo Im guessing? https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/1360639?clear_cache=1
  11. Depends, if you build a lot of kits, I think it pays to sacrifice buying another RC and investing in some proper tools. I dread to think whatmy RC tool kit cost, probably the same as a Tamiya Avante, but I wouldnt be without it!
  12. God Im old, I had an original Schumacher Mission!
  13. The above does look incredible for the money!
  14. Just buy a Hobbywing 1060 ESC around £20, and run lipo with stock motor. Brushless is just going to break stuff and cost you more in the long run
  15. I use a Noble NB4, receivers are quite pricey mind
  16. I use these but theres cheaper alternatives https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/arrowmax-multi-shock-clamp-v3-black--389668
  17. I think thats going to be a bit too much for a humble Lunchbox..…
  18. I cannot deny their following so they must be fine, BUT I just wish they had a different brand name……
  19. That Ford RS200 looks nice, any more imformation?
  20. Dont crash! I had this, I landed a jump, the velcro snapped and the lipo went flying haha
  21. May get the shell and wheels/tyres for my older one, doesn’t look much difference, unlike the new Stampede 4x4?
