  1. haha yeah right 🤣 Sweet mate, let me know how its looking! Nah you're right it wouldn't be fair on the rest of the build 😄
  2. Ah nice! Yeah I've ordered some RPM front arms but maybe won't need them for a while! Are you tempted for one of the banggood special servos? They look pretty good for the money. That's a real shame about Freespace, used to be a pretty cool place! I'm sure there are some really good spots hidden away, just got to find them I guess 😂 Knightwood is a tricky one for me mate, I don't think I could get away with it because I race BMX there and they get well over the top about RC cars being on the track! I don't really get the issue, all it needs is a quick brush over and there is no damage. Check out the messages from a couple of weeks ago 😅
  3. Yeah same as that with the MT10 mate, well I bought a 1/16 Slash a couple of weeks ago off here for my 8 year old to have a bash about with 🙂 Heli's must be cool but damn they would scare me haha. I'll did dabble with FPV quads but I lost one that I had literally just built so I haven't touched the others since lol. Good to know about the 7000mAhs fitting well mate. Did you need longer straps? How much run time are you getting? Sounds ace mate! Where is the BMX track, is it the old freespace one behind the BMW garage? Oh yes I remember G saying he used to bash over Marchwood way. Its surprising how little places there are to go really! The forest is good till they come and move you on 😅 Sounds ace bud! Hopefully the temps hold up! Yeah I don't hold out much hope for the stock servo 🤣
  4. Old thread but similar issue. I use a Spektrum dx3s on my cars but not sure what way to go to enable someone else to take a car out. Is there an easy way to 'pair' tx to rx these days so I could pick and choose which tx to use with which rx?
  5. Wooaahhh man that's a bad ass combo, big bucks! I bet its a total animal now 😍
  6. Hello mate! Good to see you're about again dude! I'm just getting back into it bud, been a good 8 ish years out! AH nice one mate. I ordered some 6000mAh HRB packs coming off amazon actually! I hope they fit ok, are yours 6000mAh too? I might try and get some lighter packs too, maybe 4000mAh - I bet the 6000's are going to be chunky! Any good bash spots around Soton mate? We should hook up for a bash oneday. @Tingting44 is still into the hobby too 🙂
  7. Hi guys. New owner, picked up a decent used one today. What 3s packs are you guys running yours on?
  8. I'm still using a Spektrum dx3s which has a 10 model memory if I remember correctly.
  9. Hi all. I'm getting back into the hobby after a long break, and I will need some new lipos. I used to get them mainly from hobbyking, but they don't seem to stock the range that they used to. I used to use mainly turnigy and zippy packs. Are there any other similar cheap suppliers out there?
  10. Hi mate, do you still have this?
  11. I didn't consider £6 off asking as particularly cheeky, but fair enough. Sorry that it has offended you.
  12. That's fair enough, I'm happy to pay the extra £6 if you still want to sell it. Let me know mate
  13. Hows everyone doing? Been a long time since I've been on here. My XXL has been sat in its box in the loft for coming up 10 years I guess 🙄 Thinking of moving it on, or maybe converting it. Nitro just isn't convenient for me anymore really 😒
  14. Yooooo. Can't believe how long we have been out of the game mate! I'm now trying to decide what to do with my Losi 🤔🤣
  15. hi all. I am after a e-clip for the trophy 3.5 lower front suspension pin, I think the whole part including pins is part number C8013 or 101020 but I don't need the pins so wondering if you guys know what size e-clips i need? cheers
  16. Might have to check out that castle motor at some point then, cheers for the heads up mate! The higher KV rating will mean quicker top end or more torque? Just ordered a set of the hard diff bits, I guess I will change the rest over as and when. Cheers for the help mate
  17. Cheers for the reply mate! Its the internal planetary gears, ah no I didn't know about the harder ones, have another standard set on the way doh! lol. It guess they just cant handle the power then like you say. I seem to be missing a shim on the outer parts then, will have to order some although i guess that would not have had any influence on the insides ripping apart? ooohhhh that sounds good, any link to the castle clones buddy? Is this the kind of thing? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Castle-Creations-Neu-Castle-1512-1Y-1-8-Brushless-Motor-2650kV-HOT-BIG-SALE-/261762482459
  18. Hi all, been a while! Got my electric converted HPI Trophy 3.5 out on the weekend for a rip, noticed the rear diff was slipping. Opened it up last night and it has destroyed itself. I'm wondering if some shims would bring the gears closer together to avoid it happening again? Saying that its quite a bit of power I'm running through there now from a HPI Alphastar motor and 4s. Also I think there is a little too much low end, I would like to change the gearing to reduce punch and increase top speed, am I right in thinking I need a bigger pinion gear on the motor - there is a 19 tooth one fitted at the moment (see photo).
  19. thanks all are the sensored combos better for drifting?
  20. thanks guys. so its not too critical which turn motor I go for? and around a 60A esc?
  21. Hi all. I have a TT01 that I want to set up for drifting. Could someone recommend a good brushless setup? Would be nice if it was £40ish or less. Don't mind buying from hobbyking or similar and waiting Cheers
  22. loving that look SchrodeMode!
