  1. If he paid you 58 was that inc postage and fees? If so you should be okay as the buggy would be around 50?
  2. Depending on where you are in Essex, there is a good place called near the Rayleigh Weir called Rayleigh RC. They have a shop that sells most things and also have an indoor circuit for 1/10 - 1/12 cars and on certain days there is a drift track too.
  3. http://www.modelsport.co.uk/overlander-rc6-vsp-80watt-7a-output-ac-dc-charger/rc-car-products/379060 I would advise you buy this one instead of that one. I have it and works just fine, I have only heard bad things about the touch screen one. Although if there is something else that you want to buy from modelsport with your vouchers it might be worth looking at hobbyking for a charger as it will probably only equate to something in the region of
  4. Sad but true. The courier prices are going up and the level of service seems to be going down in a proportional manner.
  5. That sounds dumb of them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Royal Mail leave signed for parcels outside my house which is on a fairly busy road. In fact they left the ESC you sent me outside without a signature taken. Luckily I saw it before it ****** down, couriers are getting worse and very careless.
  7. I have never had good experiences with hermes useless/careless company. I could definitely believe that story although I would like to see the CCTV personally.
  8. If I make a switched y lead from my hobbywing esc to receiver/program box does anyone have a reason why it wont work?

      I thought about that but then I thought why not do it with a switch and I could just put a socket on the receiver box

      ext lead means less to worry about and is small/tidier ;)

  10. Didn't realise they were that cheap
  11. With no decent alternative what choice do we have other than to use this **** company Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I'm going to presume its still a 120A ESC though with a better BEC from a performance point of view. Also spelling mistake on Telemetry heading
  13. I think I am done here too mate. The phrase "Talking to a brick wall" comes to mind, not sure why?
  14. Got a slightly bulging Turnigy 4S hardcase. Does anyone know if putting in a salty bucket will still do the trick?

  16. Just before anyone beats me to it. The HPI Firestorm is very good. For your younger lads the standard brushed one would probably be a good place to start. http://www.modelsport.co.uk/hpi-e-firestorm-10t-rtr-2.4ghz/rc-car-products/380330 Bit more expensive than your budget but it's RTR and will survive bashing and crashing better than the brands you mentioned above.
  17. Just FYI any EU country that you purchase from is safe in terms of import duty/tax as it is a free trade region which we (the UK) are a part of Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Haha at least it's one less hazard on the road! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I would get a reputable branded car if I were you like the HPI and Traxxas models that you have been looking at. These cars are normally shoddy quality and size hence the price... You get what you pay for!
