  1. Edit: Wrong Thread I did nothing to my model today 🤗
  2. Yes it will work fine. Have you had the engine running?
  3. Sure is, I crashed a couple of times and it just soaked it up. Great little truck.
  4. Sent it! Apologies for the potatoness of the video. You can just about make out which pixel the truck is 😁
  5. Great choice of colours. Looks amazing!
  6. Dug the old Rustler out the shed to get it running for my daughter. I knew the motor was dead but suspected the diff was as well. Little bath in degreaser for the diff parts. Cleaned and inspected. All looks good so that will be rebuilt with some fresh grease. After removing the rear end I noticed the hub bearings were shot. Seized to the shaft so these are now in a ACF-50 bath and I'll attempt to remove them tomorrow. May as well rip the whole thing apart and replace all the bearings and get it all fresh again.
  7. Thanks for posting Just ordered a pair for my MT10.
  8. On a hardcase, I always just remove it. As you say, water and dirt gets trapped.
  9. If I get a BNF it will most likely just be something small for the garden. 450 I'll be looking at a Trex or something. Not looked at helis for a while but I think SAB do some smaller ones now. Had a Goblin 700 and Logo 550sx some years back. Both of those where amazing but will start with a cheaper lawn dart 😁
  10. Not seen this kit before. Did a quick search and looks very interesting. Going to do a build thread?
  11. First will be to get on here more. Seems the bug has bitten again. Went out today with my boys all on our new cars and had a right blast. Even my daughter showed interest so will get the Rustler in the shed running for her. Needs new combo and by the sounds of it a new diff. Will dig that out later. I can definitely see some more cars coming in. I really want something nitro on road, maybe Kyosho FW. I would love to pick up an old Schumacher Fusion though. Something 8s, probably Xmaxx. Crawler. Pulled my Savage from the loft the other day. It's ready to go but will most likely wait for dryer days to run that. I bought an NX8 Tx couple of months ago and a heli sim to get back into flying but it has just sat in the box so need to get back on that and maybe get a little 450 or something. Honestly I'm excited for the next year. Edit: Great idea for a thread BTW
  12. Got it muddy! Well I did after the below image. First couple of packs through the MT10 went well. Stayed off the jumps as I have an issue with the Rx so will order a new one. Potato photo. Smiles all round. Can't wait to get out again!
  13. Think the ESC is 75amp. Can't remember. Motor is 3800kv 4pole. Will prob just throw it in there and see what happens 🔥 I'll most likely end up with a servo from HiTec as I like those. Apologies for the potato photos, my phone is knackered but I refuse to buy a new one until it no longer turns on 😁 Had an absolute blast with my boys. Put a couple of packs through the MT10, loads of fun sliding around in the mud. Had to avoid the jumps as I kept loosing signal. Will have to get a replacement Rx, this one has given me issues before in previous cars. Overall happy with the truck. Few changes and I'll be super happy with it. Can't wait to take it out again!
  14. Motor is 3800kv. Hope the rain stops this afternoon. I really want to go plaster this in mud.
  15. Just came across this thread and read through all of it. Some serious amount of work has gone into this. Fair play, it looks incredible!
  16. Next time I order from MS I'll throw some hinge pins in the basket. I see there is quite a few different new brands for servos whilst having a browse through the forum, been away from Rc for a good couple of years. I'll make a decision on one and get it ordered. I've got some nyloc nuts for the wheels and will add a little blue threadlock as well. I came across this combo when I was rummaging through the loft. Suitable?
  17. Not my present but we got a pair of Arrmas for our eldest boys. The Vorteks colour scheme is pretty sweet looking, great choice by my eldest. I felt left out so ordered an MT10 which arrived today 😁
  18. Feels good to be back! Hope you're doing well mate
  19. It has arrived Next to his big brother.
  20. Not been around for a while so had some catching up to do in this thread, well over 100 pages! Fitted a set of Jetko Tomahawk wheels and tyres to my sons Granite. He is very happy with them as am I! For the price they seem like a great purchase.
  21. Not had a new Rc in quite a few years Rival MT10 RPM A-Arms for MT10 Glue Set of Jetko Tomahwk for sons Granite
  22. I've not been on here for a while but remember a vast majority of the time you would be the first to reply to a "name that chassis" thread. Seems that has not changed Thank you
  23. My brother in law has dug this out the be back of his garage and has no idea what it is and neither do I!? Anybody recognise it? 53HRA, over to you 😁
  24. True. Inspecting the tyre and what is left on the rim it seems there is a small portion that looks like it has no glue on the actual bead, approximately 20mm. Still glue between rim and tyre. The rest has been torn from the rim leaving the bead of the tyre on the rim. Pretty poor for 10 minutes running. Like I said no excessive ballooning was present, no cutting of the pizza. I've not seen a tyre fail like this before. If my son was doing crazy doughnuts or even flat out with the tyres ready to slice a limb off I'd be fine with it but that wasn't the case. Strange and annoying.
  25. I've just been searching frantically for a nitro Egress
