      i fell out of love with a tamiya ta04s recently so ill take the eletronics out of that and mix and match what other ones i have to get ones best suited to it and shove the ta-04s in the attic along with its limited edition box, and i just noticed the price increase for speccy receivers plus my tt01 could do with the wheels from the ta-04s including front and back lights, the wild one is gonna get lights, similar to my grasshopper, loved running the ta04s but not sure where to get a new belt from for its belt driven 4wd, makes sense to whack it in the attic untill it appreciates while its still in good condition, my love is always off roaders and i have a tt-01 to thrash about if i want a on roader with easy to get parts 🙂

      dang straight, dad has one to he bought a few years back and it was hilarious how it kept spinning out on tarmac, their a challenge to handle and look sweet 🙂

       

      plus the first ever rc car i touched was a broken original one i found in the hall cupboard when i was extremely young so it has the nostalgia factor too lol

       

      ill stick to brushed at least to start with maybe a tamiya torque tuned motor 25 turn i think on 2s should be a good base point, ordered the ball race kit and a proper pinion gear for it too as the stock tamiya ones are meh 🙂

      tbh it confused the hell out of me when i first tried it, but its actually pretty simple and easy to pick up and play once you get a grip of the mechanics and controls, im playing it on pc 🙂

    I was looking at getting a Kagama but will need to get a charger and 6S batteries again as i sold everything a while ago but the extra £300 or so for 2 batteries and a charger makes me feel a bit sick 😂

  14. Starting to feel 2WD Rcs are not for me. They just dont ‘bash’. Im talking about my BBX & Astute 2022. I just cant seem to dial them in to be ‘useable’ compared to 4wd.  I appreciate I maybe over powered, but I had this issue with my Rustler/Stampede VXL. Maybe sell my Astute 2022 & BBX for a Hot Shot or a Top Force EVO? BBX looks so cool though! Hmm

      always found 2wd twitchy as hell and constant throttle control needed etc if on looser terrain, i grew up with it and love it but i can see why its not every ones cup of tea, i had the corally triton converted to brushless out in the snow a while back and it was insane just trying to get it to go in a straight line, i had a big grin on my face the whole time though 😛
