  1. What happened to Nanda block wheels? They were my go to 1/8 buggy wheels!

      They were great! These are different but similar (not sure on quality though, Nandas were tough as boots!):

      Thank you for all the feedback I am making note of it, I totally agree things need to change or we'll find nobody comes on here at all.

  6. The adds that keep popping up/down on the screen are starting to get annoying now 🙄

      Can you tell me/screenshot what ads? None should be popping up or down and you shouldn't get any as a Gold Member.

  7. China has really upped their game on shipping, pretty much everything I order is taking between 7-10 days. On the other hand the one parcel from the states is still on its tour of the USA 🙃

      Nick

      About 8 years ago I ordered a brushless motor from China and it got delivered in 2 days, the tracking said it flew to Germany overnight, then to UK and to my courier. I was amazed haha. Royal Mail can't even do that in same country!

  9. Not been on here for a good few years now has much changed other than prices of RC’s 

  10. Anything better than netflix

    1. Nick

      Nick

      Not really, Prime is terrible at the moment, Disney+ is okay but only if you're into Disney/Pixar/Marvel stuff, a lot of their other films are already on the other platforms.

       

      They probably all have really good content it's just pain to browse them and find it other than what they shove in front of you.

  12. Missed out on the Trx4m. Looks like the store only policy worked well for sales that’s for sure!

    1. Nick

      Nick

      Traxxas Release Program didn't fully apply to the TRX4M, you could buy it online on release day but there wasn't many in the first batch. Traxxas XRT is under the full release program.

  15. Unbelievable Black Friday sales from Horizon for American Market, absolutely zero for the UK according to what I can see on Horizon UK/Logic. I think its time to realise NO RC Company cares about the UK Market……

    1. Nick

      Nick

      This has always been the case, UK market is tiny, the events and races they do in the USA are incredible, so much bigger than anything here. We are actually lucky to have UK suppliers at all for some brands like Traxxas. If we used the European suppliers we'd have nothing available post Brexit, could of seen some brands completely wiped out the market here. I can say from what I've seen the retailers aren't getting anything to pass on to customers, so the issue lays further up the chain somewhere.

  19. Is this forum using adequate method(s) to prevent bots signing up, as recently there seems to be an increase in spam?

      They are getting a lot smarter! Hard to tell if human or not sometimes but think we've just about got on top of it. AJ has been brilliant.
