Liking the look and idea of The Crew. I hope to god it doesnt suck.

PS4 ftw. Its good enough to drag me away from being a microsoft fan for the last few years. Like above, you can buy PSN membership, but with the added bonus of free stuff every month. Which is great, if like me, you also own a PS3 and a Vita. I dont think you have to buy the membership, but like live, I think you need it to be able to play online.

Gotta love a bit of cammo. Im looking for a clear body atm, gonna spray it in a digital cammo style. Also looking for some Axial Oversized 6 Spoke in Chrome.

In the fuel tank video, is that a denim shirt and denim jacket combo? Double denim. Regardless of this mans ability to make a fuel tank out of a pop bottle, he needs to be taken outside and be shot.

Hah, my throttle servo died after the first run. Spoke to them and they said it was very uncommon. Obviously not that uncommon then. But credit where credit is due, all sorted within a day or two.

Are you on about the Nitro Circus endorsed stuff on Hobbyking?

Shame....just sold 2 Flysky sets. The rx for those are pretty small.

Diffs work as they should. Will check the drive shafts. Will have to invest in some help to make a thorough inspection.

Reverse link checked, all as it should be. Turned gearbox by hand while it was out of the chassis, and it engaged forward and reverse as it should. Checked to make sure the servo was putting out enough swing to engage both gears, all fine. Im stumped.

Yep, all pins in place. Clutch engages, bell spins. Tightened the slipper, loosened it etc. Not tried it when off gorund to see if wheels spin, but if they do, what would that mean?

Gents, got a problem with my S28. Revs like hell but doesnt go anywhere. Clutch is fine, shoes in goo nick and clutch enagages and turns spur gear as it should. Transmission has come out, all internals are intact, and everything operates as it should when turned by hand. Diffs checked, all as it should be. Drive cup pins all present and correct. Im at a loss as to what the problem is, as verything seems to be in place and working correctly. When I apply throttle, it just revs its nuts off and doesnt go anywhere. Anyone had this problem, or even think of something I have overlooked?

Ive got the 30.5cc version, and so far I am more than please with it. And if you get bored of the truck look, it wont break the bank to convert it to a buggy.

Ive not ,long bought a T1000a, which is basically the same car but with a bit more plastic on the side and a truck shell. Things Ive bought in the last couple of weeks are:- Shock Braces - Front and Back Pull Start Cover Air Filter Cover Silverback Beadlocks (Nice little pic on here somewhere to demonstrate the difference between original KM beadlocks and the Silverbacks) Battery Level Indicator Killswitch As the guys said previously, the list goes on. But at 400 bucks, the KM's seem to be an excellent intorduction into petrol, leaving you some decent change to mess about.

Nothing wrong with a spankin' new KM. Few weeks ago I bought the T100a, and so far I've been very impressed. As stated above, fully compatible with HPI parts, so loads of spares out there, although RcModelz prices are pretty decent (when they have things in stock).

Wouldn't mind throwing one of theses in my MTA. Should be a laugh.

If all the parts are off the same vehicle, then I would suggest its from some form of short course truck. Might be worth checking them against a Blitz if Jordan seems to think they are HPI parts.

BTT.....few bits added.

Is that the 3 speed one?

Can you not change the gear up with the grub screw inside the transmission??????

Im sure there is someone on here selling new MTA4 S50's brand new for about 150 bucks??? And there is a huge thread with loads of support should you ever need help or advice. MTA's are great bashers and very durable, and abundance of spares available on the web (Thunder Tiger and Team Associated). I started with a MTA4 S28 2 years ago, and highly recommend them, regardless of the nay sayers.

BTT

Some tx and Rx sets up for grabs. One used, one totally brand new. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/ollietheox/m.html?item=141245401859&pt=UK_Video_Games_Cases_Bags&hash=item20e2e1cb03&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

RcModelz are pretty decent for price, just dont seem to have a lot of the essentials in stock. So far, your best bet is keeping tabs on Ebay. I suppose it depends also on what parts your after, for instance, from what I understand Silverback RC is the place to go for your beadlocks, Killswitches can be had off this forum by Jolly Roger etc etc.

Bit the bullet and bought a KM T1000a. Seems to be a great truck and can handle a jump or spill better than I expected. Shell is still intact too
