  1. Have a look at the engine casing nearest the pull start housing, you might find its stamped or a sticker under the actual engine casing. Is there anything on the actual pull start housing ??
  2. Me too, but now they don't. The manufacturer stopped production. There's a video on here of me using it on my FG MT body.
  3. Hi Chris, Yes, I have previously used De-Solv-It on my FG MT body and it removed every last bit of paint really easily. Unfortunately that product is no longer made and what is floating around is very difficult to get hold of.
  4. Hi guys, I have a solid plastic FG BAJA body which was factory moulded red but it has been sprayed a couple of different colours since. Would anyone know what type of plastic these hard bodies were made from? I have a paint and varnish product ( Paint Panther for use on metal, wood and some plastics) that I want to experiment with but need to know the exact material used in the body shell before trying it. I've previously used nitromors on it last year without any melting of the body but this paint remover was not effective on even removing the paint.
  5. Well why don't you just remove the spare wheel and fixing?
  6. Can you put a video up? Clutch - gears etc
  7. A bit obvious but have you checked that the wheels turning freely (together) by hand ? If not, they could be on too tightly.
  8. WHY does the weekend go so damn fast when the next five working days will feel like ten ?

      Thanks KORB. Only trouble is that I don't have the mobility to take advantage of it! Over 50 RC cars, plus about 20 boats, planes, helicopters, etc., many not run for a few years and not one of them been run in the last 12 months! Nowhere local that I can get my car near enough and takes me a couple of days to put a few in the boot!

  9.  Back to work tomorrow after being off since Dec 21 and the basketing train fares have added another £10 per month for an 18 minutes trip each way. We certainly know how to be ripped off.

  10. Hi James All the parts are replaceable. Have you got a diagram with part numbers??
  11. Well, that's the chrimbo decorations down and put away. Always looks bare once they get put away. Happy New Year to you all !??

      Took mine down last Saturday 

  12. Happy New Year!? All the parts are replaceable and the chassis can be straightened out with a block of wood and a hammer. Maybe consider replacing all plastic parts with metal.
  13. I'm using a 1-8 cell Recoil peak detection charger for the battery pack, I think I paid around £26 - £28 including the ENERG - PRO NIMH 6.0V SC - 33000h battery . Is the RC-3s not a Lipo battery? I think this is the charger you will need for that battery @ £14.99 incl VAT.
  14. Hi Guys,

    I'm looking for an old Schumacher Nitro Ten 4x4 ( vintage ) If anyone has one for sale please let me ASAP.

     

    Merry Christmas to you all ! ??

  15. Was anyone else at the " Sound Of MADNESS" tour in Hull last night?  Mrs KORB bought us tickets for my 50th Birthday surprise  , and it most definitely was!

    Thank you Mrs KORB!!  I have to admit...THAT was the BEST night of my life!!

  17. I'm in Lincolnshire, selling a 26cc FG Monster Truck great condition with new battery and charger included
  18. Sounds a great Idea!? Unfortunately I'm too damn far away ??
  19. Different chassis and layout. FG make a BMW M3 drift car so it's already been done. Google t2m-rc.fr you'll find it there. FG was sold to the French model maker/distributor t2m about 4 years ago .
  20. Hi guys and girls , Anyone around the Lincolnshire area interested in a bash about this weekend?
  21. Like this?.... FG 4x4 Sports line Drifter

  23. I'm trying to find which DEANS connectors I need for my 6V 33000 battery pack because the standard connectors have started to come apart causing loss of power to radio gear/ servos. Any advice greatly appreciated.

      Sorry, that's news to me. I converted to 5.5mm bullets years ago, they might of introduced new variants to their line up.

      Just search standard t plug deans.

       

      They do a micro set but they're tiny.

       

      Never seen any larger deans plugs, so news to me too.

       

      Buy genuine deans with the hard nylon (deep red)....some of the knock offs use babybel wax as the connector....:)

      Micro / ultra T plug .

      Standard T plug

      s-l1600.jpg

       

       

      I'd assume on that battery they'd be standard size.

      I've got some female ones here so if you want to measure how wide yours is I can compare it to mine.
