      Awesome, was showing my son the vids last night and he was looking forward to taking his 1/10 SC down the pits this sat arvo, hope weather holds out!

      That's awesome! How old is he? :D

      Hopefully should be getting down tomorrow, I won't be using the super 5 though as the ESC still hasn't been returned yet. Running the Apache C1 :)

      He is 5 and just has a Turnigy Trooper 4x4 with 2S, sometimes using my 3S. I'll take my Slash 4x4 til I get the 5SC, sold my 1/8 Nitro Monster :)

      "Loud" rather than load! Where abouts are you parking for the Pits - North end on way to whiteways, south by the Oaks car park or other?

    3. RC Freaks

      RC Freaks

      By the oaks most of the time, we do try and park down another road further towards arundel which is closer but we've been getting some trouble from a local resident who has nothing better to do.

    4. Didski

      Didski

      OK, that's where I used to park then cross the road and go down a bit before entering the pits. Thx bud, will go this Sat and check it out.

  7. ESC dead in the super5. April has not been my month! At least I got most of the footage I was after first.

      No idea mate, It just died under a slow speed, no power getting to anything. all solders are fine, sparks on connection. Just bricked!

      Castle cremations at work again. Considering slapping my xl2 in, just for 6s running....they are a fantastic truck, no regrets about my purchase.

      Castle cremations. That kills me everytime I hear it! LOL.

      Good idea Noj, I was considering the MM2 so it's waterproof but I guess I bought this car and it's warranty covered, so may as well use it!

  8. Full service to my Super 5sc, Took a long time but worth it!

      I've been very pleasantly surprised with the truck over all. The only real issue I've had is I melted the center gear box. Pretty much my fault though, covered it in deep clay/mud so it weighed almost twice the weight and then didn't adjust the slipper clutch. It obviously slipped a lot and got up to 140*c (whoops) and then melted a part of the gear box where the spur comes out. I replaced that with an integy alloy box and it's been fine ever since.

      It gets away with less power as it's not a 5SC with the petrol motor taken out. It's a lot lighter. Less weight needs less power. It's basically a stretched Savage Flux HP with a 5SC shell.

      Fair enough Jack, I imagine you need the 40kg then heh! I'm running that 30kg set up in a 5th scale and it seems over kill.

      Thanks for your concern Tamiya but everything is fine 6 months on. No aquariums.
