      14 degrees just outside sunny scarborough, 

      warm in the sun but cold in the shade,

      supposed to be getting warmer though :thumbsup:

  2. It's nice and sunny in the Wolds, but that wind is blooming freezing!:cold: I think I'll  be leaving my bike in the shed this evening! ?:cold: 

    1. Gaz!

      It’s much better sat in the car with the heaters on, it tricks your mind until you open the door :ph34r:

  3. What sort of price would be suitable for a gleaming example of a Schumacher Nitro 10 Racing Truck complete with the original Irvine S15R engine and original radio gear 27Mhz ( new 2.4 system in the box and Inc in sale)

      Around a year ago was the last one I sold.... All original... With futaba 2er tx/rx... Schuey Stadium truck body... Used but good condition... No box... Reached 60 odd quid.... 

       

      I've seen them sell for less in worse condition... Round £30-50 a few times...... I've seen them sell for more in better condition.. Around £100.... (in box... Used complete & un used kits) 

       

      I see people listing Schumacher sst 99's in box for £600+..... Three years later... They're still on ebay ?

       

      You asked a question.... I answered it to the best of my knowledge..... I was only trying to help you... 

       

      +.... You already asked someone at a hobby shop... Who gave you an answer... So why did you need a second opinion if you trusted his? 

       

      Bung it on ebay for £500 buy it now (half of what Johnny model shops estimate was) .... You'll get lots of watchers... And a year later we can celebrate the anniversary of it still being on ebay. 

       

      Only one way to prove who's right.... List it on ebay and see what it sells for.... If you're getting arse twitchy over pricing.... Just put it on at £1000 or best offer

       

      Make sure you post a link

      Why would I need to prove whose right? I didn't actually say I was going to sell it, I was only asking for opinion not a big mouth who believes hers right every time he posts! Take a day off pal and chill out because some of us really do get peed off with bigheaded know it alls, and it's probably why there's hardly any of the members that swelled this forum on a daily basis left on here 

       

      Suggest you also stop intimidating others with your childish laughing emojis, it's a reason why people like me who've been on this site for years decide to call it a day on here. Don't ruin it for others with your smart arse drivel. 

       

      Don't bother responding because I'm less than interested.

      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!

  5.  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.

      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

      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.

  17. Hi.

    My mondeo has developed a noise from the front passenger side which gets louder when driving but stops when the brakes are applied? new tyres fitted in june.. this afternoon the sound/vibration is going through the bulkhead/dashboard ...Any ideas?? imagine the noise from a rumblestrip that deep whining sound going through the tyre...

      @RCbutcher The noise stops once brakes are applied but it stops and starts moments later and sometimes days later it hasn't done it for about 2-3 weeks but today is the worst it has done it if that helps?

    3. chrisknights

      chrisknights

      Check to see if your brake pads have come away , jack the car up , get some be to sit inside and move the wheel and get them to put the brake on and see if the pad moves

      @chrisknights That is the job tomorrow morning , I also had two new rear shocks fitted yesterday because of thumping from the back end, turned out today it wasn't the shocks but a bush on the lower rear trailing arm ..... http://thumbs3.ebaystatic.com/m/mVIe5TgVmSc_bkLVDiNMZrA/140.jpg

      Garage says it won't refund me for the shocks as this is a secondary problem caused by the new shocks being fitted! . I know, you couldn't make this **** up. 

  18. Hi Everyone, hope the world is being good to you all !

  19. Ebay is a total joke!! told me to close account because i've changed mu phone number recently and they cannot verify me ? new email account, new ebay account and NOW it tells me i am adding wrong credit card details.. REALLY !??? USELESS!!!!

    1. johninderby

      johninderby

      Changed my phone number two weeks ago and eBay never did anything after I updated my account. Something odd going on there. Have you actually spoken to them to see what they're up to?

    2. KORB

      KORB

      Sure have. Called them on the phone and messages on live chat. I have deleted my new account that I was told to set up last night, can't be bothered with all the poo they spout after telling me to close the first account then open a second one.
