  1. Cheers for all the help guys the problem is now solved. It was the little nob on the controller it was set at minimum.

    now i have put it to maximum the wheels turn to the left and right alot more than what it did.

    once again thanks for all the help and i apologise now in advance for all the silly stupid questions probably coming your way(you have to start somewhere).

  2. Can you see or hear the tyres loosing grip? What happens if you turn slowly?

    Have you checked the steering amount trim is set to max on the handset, not sure what your knowledge is but there should be a twist knob with st or something written next to it? Its not the one that alligns the wheels its the other one.

    my knowledge is minimal when it comes to rc cars. when i turn slowly it hardly turns at all i have to blip the accelerator. When i turn at speed i have to slam the brakes on and turn at the same time. Otherwise my turning circle is about 50 metres at speed.

    another example is it is impossible to drive tightly around myself.

    i will have to go and check the steering trim as well then.

  3. What do you mean by ballooning?. is there any specific diff oil i should put in?.

    Also when the car is stand still and you turn left and right on your controller the wheels will only move a little.

    if you were to move the steering servo by hand the wheels will move a lot more to the left and right(you can get full lock)

    thanks for the help so far

  4. hi everybody

    just got my hyper from one of the lads on the forum. Its absolutely brill and so is the lad i got it off. The only thing with it is its turning circle. The titanic has got a smaller turning circle than this thing. At first i thought it could be the batterys but i have now put a stick pack in which was fully charged and its still the same.

    Is this a normal thing with the hyper 7 or is there a fault anywhere?. I think it does have a upgraded steering servo.

    any help will be greatly appreciated

  5. this is just a shot in the dark.

    i had a similar problem the other day with my stampede and it was the button that you push down, It was stickin down when you took your finger off,.

    when you release the button give it a helping hand with your nail it might make it lift up a fraction.

    it worked for me mate.

    hope you have some joy with this.

  6. Hi all

    life must be easy if my only dilemma is should i or shouldnt i get a Mini E revo vxl!

    What i would kindly like off yourselves if possible is the good points and the bad points of this little RC.

    The only thing that puts me off is that i have read that a few people are changing the suspension and other parts of the vehicle to make it a decent RC or is that not the case.

    I am very close at buying one i would just really appreciate your HONEST opinion.

    many thanks

  10. Your house doesn't burn down? :lol:

    But seriously they are pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Just make sure you are setting it to the right charge mode (NiMH in your case) and a sensible speed (1C = 1 x the capacity of the battery) and you should be fine.

    Just keep an eye on it when it's charging :good:

    so if i had an 8.4v battery and charged it at the speed you said above how long should it take to charge would you say?
