    Is there an issue with spare parts for Kyosho models, seem to be in short supply

    Intruiged by these new rumoured Tamiya Chassis’ BB-01 and MB-01. I wanna build something to keep my mind occupied  but the TT Series is such a bore after 10 or so times

      M-08 chassis looks an interesting build and is cheap-ish £156 from appliance electronics.  It would need a body but there’s some real nice ones available https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/tamiya-m-08r-chassis-kit-1342759/spares-1947/bodyshells?

    So my Cragsman C Pro has paint peel on the inside of the body’s, it’s only been run once and never bashed… I spoke to the shop I purchased it from RCModelz in the UK and they aren’t willing to do anything to help the situation, I’m fuming at a £700 RC with crappy  paint, I’m sure if it was Modelsport, Wheelspin or Appliance Electronics they would see it right 😡

      I haven’t used that shop for around 10 years  when I gave up running 1/5 scales. Not be using them for at least another 10 years now …..terrible customer care

    Sold my 1/1 car, it’s being picked up this afternoon and the van is in the body shop for the weekend getting tidied up, so loads of time to start building the XV02 pro 👍

      Plenty of pics please mate  👍🏻 Ive had the Xv-02 in my basket for weeks, this might nudge me into finally buying it .

    I kinda wanna sell 6/7 RCs, and build something ‘special’. A mental X maxx, a Brushless Losi 5t or a Tamiya Big Truck…….

    1. tomr

      Personally I’d save up your money for a super build unless you’re stuck for space 👍

      Some of mine might not get used for 12 months or more but I always come back around to them.

    Think I can sense the Traxxas lawyer's licking their lips with this, I know that the chassis layout is different but I'm getting TRX4 sport vibes from this.

      Yeah that’s an option and good price .Element RC kit is a good one 👍

      What about the Cross RC AT4 kit? It’s the best quality rig I own barring the Agama race buggy.
