to be honest my car has had quite alot of prangs some major but it held up well not broke much at all think your mate must have got the runt of the batch i think it is quite a strong buggy had mine for nearly 2 years

HERE IS MY BUGGY FULL OF GRUNT!! http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k151/biffa1/myrexx008.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k151/biffa1/myrexx005.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k151/biffa1/myrexx004.jpg GREAT CAR GREAT FUN WANT TO TAKE IT ON A PROPER TRACK GOING TO GO TO DARTFORD OFF ROAD TRACK WHEN I GET A CHANCE SEE WHAT IT CAN DO

mine shiftsjust got a .32 (5.2cc)force engine broke in on 20% oh my god fitted a 16 tooth first gear and a 21 tooth second gear to cluch bell - if it had wings it would fly might need to upgrade brakes now it dont like stopping!!! it is a four wheel drive but when you accelerate the back drops quite alot and the front lifts so i have to change the shock oil got 100wt in at the moment. but what a great car

the idle screw is set at 1/16 gap the high speed needle is set at 3 turns out from fully closed the low speed needle is set flush to carb body if your engine is a force .21

i found the rex x to be a great car had alot of crashes hardly ever breaks very well made had to upgrade the wheels found thay cracked easy got a set of medivel pros solid dish wheels with hobao angled spiked tyres stoped that problem!!!! great for short grass i have noticed that all the web sites that stock rex x parts have put them on sale are thay getting rid of the rex x !!!!

be careful!!! when i fitted my twinspeed i had the car out twice then snaped the conrod (knacked the engine)i am thinking of going back to single speed i was running it on grass that was nearly flat. it does clearly state on road use only!!!! i found it impossible to adjust the two speed clutch because u cant hear it change gear. it did make a bit of difference not much i think u have to upgrade the gears on cluchbell as dont think u can get different main gears only 45 teeth & 50 teeth gears that are plastic!!! the twin speed puts alot more pressure on the engine when running on rough ground because of the higher gear i just got a bigger engine and upgraded the gears on the clutch bell not had a chance to run it yet

thanks gents looked on all sites none state that the part would fit a rex x having problems knowing what part would correspond to fit my car. any ideas what other companys parts would fit a rex x

thanks mate just got to break in new engine then tweek a bit hope it keeps up with my friends savage x any one else out there got a rex x

thank's i will try rchopups not tryed that site yet . i mostly use modelsport great shop!!! (cheap p&p)

i was looking on upgrading the exhaust for my new engine any ideas i have got around £40 pound to spend

when i purchased the two speed kit it came with plastic gears can i replace with metal gears. i have looked on net not found anything ANY IDEAS ANYONE where i could get them(if u can)

it sure does. i was recently told to put two springs on to make it more stable would this be ok

i have left all that loose my manifold goes up at a angle plus the new engine sits a bit higher than the old one

got to fit the engine first!!! i need to line the exhaust up! to get a good fit

it is a great buggy not had many problems with it. i recently knacked the .21 force engine just got i new one from the states a .32 force big block engine(very cheap)awaiting parts for fitting http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k151/biffa1/mycar006.jpg

it did change a bit a mate of mine has a hobao tq sport with a.28mach engine he used to pull away from me start to finish but i can keep up with him now it is hard to judge when the second gear comes in so it is hard to adjust ? if the second gear is coming in too late the engine will rev high for longer(more stress on engine?)could this be the cause of my snapped conrod? when i bought the two speed it "stated" not for offroad use? is flat grass ok? what is the best all round .21 engine about for about £100.00 to £150.00

thanks for your reply i had been racing on grass with a few little jumps when it went? i can repair my .21 engine for around £60.00 or get a new one for £99.99 i think to get a new engine of the same kind then i have some spares and no worry that i have put it back together properly? i have had problems with my first nitro car when putting in a new piston&liner the "g"snap pin kept coming out on scoring the piston? on gx12 engine a mate has a savage you can hear the gear change but i cant on my rex x is this ok?

I RECENTLY PUT A TWO SPEED CONVERSION ON MY REX X AND I CANT HEAR A CHANGE IN GEAR IS THIS NORMAL? I USED IT TWICE THEN THE CONROD SNAPPED. IS THE TWIN SPEED AT FAULT? MY REX X HAS A FORCE .21 ABC ENGINE SHALL I REPAIR IT OR UPGRADE TO A MACH .28 ANY SUGGESTIONS?
