  1. Yeah i think your right James I am so used to 4wd that i forgot what the effect of braking would do in a rwd car!! Just been having a play and you just have to be gentle with it. Its a quick way to turn around though Cheers Mike
  2. Hi My new VXL Rusty is behaving strange under braking, When i apply the brakes in a straight line it turns hard to the right and spins the truck around. Has anyone had this problem, or know if its something simple i have missed? Mike
  3. +1 on the above, its so much easier.
  4. Thanks for the offer gramps I might take you up on it, when i finally decide what to get!! Cheers Mike.
  5. Hmm nice idea i will look into that? I assume i wont loose any power with retrictions this way? it might be a simple solution. Nice one.
  6. I am absolutely hopeless at soldering, i have tried so many times to get it right and it just fails me! not destined to get it right!! So could do with some already installed with trx or deans connectors really. Unless there is a shop somewhere that will do them for me, i know modelsport does, but i assume you have to buy the batteries off them first... The hobby king ones look good value do you know if they supply them with deans/trx or can i get a banana plug to deans/trx connector? mike
  7. Hi All I am about to order 2 new cars, one for me and one for my son, Just after some advice on lipos really. My lad wants the vxl pede and i want either vxl Rustler, xxt sparrow hawk or firestorm flux, not sure which one i will get... prob will never make my mind up lol What i want is 4 sets of lipos, 2s, which can be interchanged between the 2 cars, and are a match for both cars so if one of us isnt running, then we have some extra batteries to play with? Which cars would be suitable for that end, (obviously the rustler is, but what about the others) Also any advice on which lipos to get would be appreciated. cheers Mike
  8. Best thing you will buy for the Merv
  9. Hi Dan I have just chcked my account details and i left the state blank? I put my county (cheshire in caps after the last line of my address) if it still wont work, my tower hobbies account is in Alabama!!! as long as you make sure you are united kingdom and your county is there it doesent seem to matter? Mike
  10. Ive ordered about 5 things in the last month from toyz. All have arrived on the 7 to 10 day mark? except my HR Axle carriers which are now 2 days past the 2 week mark Pretty good service from them.
  11. How about this. Has good reviews so far, and its brushless/RTR/2.4. Just need battery and charger. http://www.modelsport.co.uk/index.php?CallFunction=ShowSpecification&ItemID=34202
  12. Arrows on the tread facing forward mate
  13. Glad you like it, I am the same with mine, its certainly the best all rounder i have owned. My credit card doesnt agree with me though, with all the business TheToys is getting off me!!!
