  1. Hi I run touring cars and have a hudy setup system for it. I thought 10th scales were all the same, but when i tried to out my losi 22 onto it it was much wider Does anyone know the difference between the hudy on and off road setup station, is it literally the acrylic toe plate?
  2. Thanks. Luckily it was on the end of the esc so i just turned it round 90 degrees which means it could get past the motor

    forza 4

    Yes but can never find anyone else to play with!
  4. My plasti dip is in the post! Will post up here once ive dunked!
  5. I have known people in touring car racing to use super glue, but this is a very permenant way i wouldnt recommend
  6. Oh right fair enough. Ive never actually been to a good model shop! The ines in the states look awesome. And fair eniugh, that makes it alot easier
  7. Double sided foam tape Like the stuff used for number plates. Its also waterproof
  8. A few months ago, when soldering my hobbywing v.2.1, one of the "cups" that you solder the wires onto fell off and i lost it. It was ok because i want the wires horzontal anyway. Now however, i need them vertical and need the cup. So any ideas where i can get them from?
  9. Just looked at the clubs website, says it can run any motor you want in the open class. I know you just want to have some fun, but i would actually recommend a slower motor, say 10.5. This is still extremly quick, but may be more enjoyable than running a mod motor as itll be easier to control. In mod, if you dont have a great setup, tyres arennt prepared properly, youll just wheelspin down the straight! Also i would recommend going to a race night to see what the other guys run. Then if you do decide to race, youll already have suitable electrics. Remember, you can always change motor in the future! 10.5 is also gentler on the car, mod rips through belts, driveshafts, diff outputs and bearings. Also if you are just starting again, you may have the odd crash. At extreme mod speeds, this will be you done for the day, and will be an expensive repair! I would also think about doing the 17.5 blinky class. This requires no setup with the esc so no worry about cooking your motor. You can get a cheaper esc then, and if yot interested i have a motor and pinions for sale. This is because id recommend racing instead of just practicing, 17.5 blinky is a fun class nit taken to seriously at club level. So theirs no pressure, and then you haveother guys to help with setup/drivewith. Also with mod you need to make sure your car is all aligned on a setup station which if you dont have access to already will be another cost. Servo wise, i run a ko propo one10 response. You dont really need a high torque servo, in tc its all about speed (still need some strength in it though)
  10. Ok fair enough. What track is it? Thanks, i spend all my free time fiddling with them trying out new electric wiring until i think its right. Got a 2wd buggy now that is a nightmare to fit the electrics into. By nightmare i mean awesome, means i can spend time trying to get it good! Doesnt make the car any faster, but makes me smile
  11. Havnt actually it used for off road yet although its in the post. Has a motor limit of 3.0 so should be fine for anything in off road! Quite a small esc with no fan, setting software is good too.
  12. Yep, thats my car. Heres one without shell One is my wet car, one is my main car. The thunder power motor is good, can also change the stator to get different powers e.g 13.5, 17.5 Boost does pretty much exaclty what you described Where are you going to run this? Mod is too powerful for anywhere but a track tbh Batteries-if your not racing then the turnigy ones should be aliright. Fdr is the gear ratio so takes into account the spur gear, the pinion gear and the drive ratio of the car. For mod i run a 111t spur, and 22t pinion, my car as internal ration 1.9. This gives a high fdr I showmy friends the videos on youtube, and they are like "is your car that fast?" It can be, but i make it slower. This is because the fastest guys can actually control that, whilst the average racer cant. It means stuff is more likely to break, and the best guys get everything for free, so it doesnt matter to them.
  13. I run spider grip orange outdoors Spider grip green indoors
  14. I have a thunder power 17.5 if your still looking, pm me if you want it
  15. Ah mod.....yes! Running mod this year, car is mental quick That combo looks alright, never seen/used one myself. Thats probably the best budget option, but as your not racing it should be ok. However, if you can afford i would look at a slightly higher spec, then if you do want to race you can. Id look at a muchmore fleta pro with a thunder power 4.5t. I run this combo and its great. To get to mental speed land youll need boost, do you know how this works? If not we can help, however youll also need a compatible program box, around
  16. Do you know if that saver will fit the losi? I tried an xray one and it is too big, it scrapes on the chassis. Any other ideas? Also gearing wise, im running an 8.5, any ideas what kind of gearing ill need for surrey?
  17. Have a speed passion 8.5 from my wet mod car, hoepfully going to get a fleta pro and muchmore shorty lipos, and i have a savox sc1251 Quick question, do you think ill need a servo saver?
  18. Me? Yep Thedarkknight Hopefully, will have to see if i can fit it in! Alex Had looked at one, i bought 2 losi rollers as a job lot for alot less than a brand new b5m!
  19. Just ordered a losi 22, hooing to run at shrcc next thursday. Just got to get some electrics for it!
  20. I use demon if i need it asap, otherwise rc mart where i save over 30% per item
  21. Does anyone know where i can find the approved motors list? Thanks
  22. Can someone send me the link for an xray t4 model setup for crew chief? Thanks
  23. Thanks, exaclty what i needed. Rectified problems! Thanks.
