  1. Hi So have build my TT01E, only the second model I have build from scratch (first being my Dark impact which I love). Am a bit dissapointed with the speed, am using the stock motor supplied with the model (Nissan Sumo Power). Which of the following would you experts choose as a replacement? (or others in same price range). Just so that you know initially I will be using the normal NIMH Tamiya type batteries so I want something that will work with them with a view to possibly going the Lipo route later. Cheers http://www.modelspor...oduct_id=368726 http://www.modelspor...roduct_id=34310 PS. Should have mentioned also that I have already Ball raced it and added Oil Shocks and plan to get the Ally main shaft as well. Should I get the Ally steering linkages?
  2. Could any one recomend some good shocks for a TT 01E? Ta ;-)
  3. Job done!! Thanks for help :-)
  4. Should I be getting worried here? are they quite fragile? I only get to use my Stampede once a month so have only used it 3-4 times and not particularly vigorously......
  5. Good plan, I will try that when I am next out. Am I right in thinking the ESC should be covered by the warranty (Bought it less than a year ago)?
  6. Hi Yet another cry for help I'm afraid!! Still learning the ropes. The last 2 weekends I have used my stampede I have experienced a problem where it seems to die. The steering works and I can hear it make a noise when pressing the accelerator. if I give it a little push then off it goes until it stops and then I have to give it another little push to get it started. The weird thing is (in my head at least) this only seems to happen with my new battery. I bought a second battery which is exactly the same as the stock one, Traxxas 7 cell hump Nicad. Does this sound like it could be a battery issue? or is it mebby just coincidence that it seems to only happen with the new battery? Sorry Just realised that I should probablt have put this in the Leccy section
  7. ok cheers, have ordered those and will give it a try once they arrive. Will let you know how I get on.
  8. Hi So I bought some hex head screws for my dark impact and during removal of one of the old screws the head burred. I have read tips of dremelimg a slot for a flat head screwdriver to be used, problem is it is recessed into the rear shock tower. Any ideas?
  9. Can't do 29th but will defo try next one :-)
  10. Just see some of the MLB vids, you guys are mental!!! What sort of ages normally turn up? Just worried about turning up and being the old boy and newb lol
  11. Live in Edmonton (near totenham) but go home to Essex quite a lot (Witham).
  12. Hi Anyone know of any tracks (Preferably off road) in the North London/ Essex Area? Have had a look on google but nothing seems to spring up!!
  13. Just got the Stampede VXL 4*4 and it is by far the best out of the ones I have. I Luuurve it
  14. ok, thanks. Will give that a try. Wish me luck!!
  15. Hi My first post, new to all of this :-) Recently upgraded my Lunchbox with metal bearings. Last night fitted my new shocks. Happy with the improvement from both For some reason I could not remove one of the front wheels. Does any one have a clue why this might be, the only thing I could think of is that one of the bearings is at a "funny angle" but this does not seem to be the case. It has not had any knocks and I was applying a fair amount of force in trying to get it off. Worked round it in the end so as not to break any thing! Should I maybe get some WD40 on it?
