  1. Wired a link cable into key fob camera ready for the viper Then waited all day on the postie to deliver the much needed viper spares ......... which never turned up Really hate being grounded !!
  2. Had same issue before with drive pin working out .Found if you chap it back in it will just work back out again. I reverted to taking the whole pin out and tightening up the hole by giving it a few taps with a hammer on a vice,before replacing the pin. Been ok since
  3. Quick querie lads , hubsan motors ... Is it ok to use a blue / red wired motor in place of a black / white wired motor ? Do you just need to swap over polarity connections when soldering for the correct rotation ??? Any advice would be appreciated Cheers
  4. Nice pipe ! I chopped the end off a spare allen key for a perfect fit on the awkward bolt . Found I got a better purchase when nipping it up tight than I could with a ball hex
  5. You sorted yet Rich ?? Was the savox repairable / warranty ?
  6. Bits came in today. Rebuilt the 5ive with new rear and centre drive cups ,new bearings, fresh oil ,new boots and driveshaft pins Drivetrain back to silky smooth
  7. Started cleaning ... And made a to do list : Renew centre drive cups / bearings Renew rear diff cups / bearings Renew brake discs Renew drive shaft pins Renew boots
  8. Reshelled mine last week .... Think I need glasses !!
  9. Thought I was getting the hang of mine ....... Until my ego got bigger than my flying skills and I almost lost it Spent over 30 minutes hunting for it before it was found
  10. Will give that a try , need to persevere more to master it Just been enjoying too much buzzing about
  11. Broken 2 blades , an arm and a motor this week .....All repaired today I've been struggling with the reverse control scenarios
  12. Repaired some crash damage on the viper Off out to try again before it gets too dark
  13. Good going for only a week , I'm still on easy mode !!
  14. Good job mate , how long you you had the hubsan then ?? Just got myself a viper but not managed or tried flips yet !!
  15. Cheers for the heads up,didn't know that , just read the hubsan x4 landed thread ..... Good read
  16. Cheers mate ,yeh it was the main power cord between the two plugs Have repaired it but just doesn't look neat Will be keeping it indoors from now on TA
  17. Through post this morning What a hoot !! http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xoo5CKIZAgA
  18. Nice 'simplez' charger , tad noisy fan ...... The cold got to mine , cracked the 240v power cord sleave and broke the internal wiring when unravelling it ..... Can you get spares ??
  19. Nah ...it'll just get cracked again ! Was at Westcoast on Friday and it was more like banger racing than racing !
  20. Think your shell needs a bit more black duct tape ....to continue with the zebra theme
  21. Cleaned and checked over the 5ive Replaced broken diff box on the 8ight Still to refit the shock tower ........ But turned Baltic !
  22. Yeh ,saw it a while back bud Thought I could knock something similar up and give it a try Think I'm liking the rear view better though Keeps the lense cleaner
  23. Think you've been right unlucky Rich , as you know I've been running twin Hitecs (touch wood) with no probs I've got just the one link rod between the two servos and have set it up with a slightly looser fit ,not a rattle fit but there is some play in it Just an after thought ... Might be worth checking your servo saver is not set too stiff ??
