  1. bought my kids a WLtoys A959, hopefully they will enjoy it, its probably going to end up in total carnage, but you've gotta encourage the next generation of bashers right? 😂

  4. Had a go with the Rat Works tuned R10 down the range earlier and can't believe how accurate it is. :o

    It'll probably get slightly better when I get some more pellets through it.

  10. Need some 220mm battery straps but refuse to pay the £3.50 MS want to send one! :boredlook:

    1. Scoobie007

      Do they need to be that specific size?, the spare battery tray ive recently ordered comes with straps, i will measure them when it arrives, and i can chuck them in with the monitor if they are suitable.

      that was something else i noticed when it was all fitted up, but yes, it fits with no adverse bending or crimping of the motor wires.

      it fits width wise nicely, so i am considering cutting the back of the tray if i can find a replacement, weighing up the pros and cons, its probably cheaper to source a new tray and cut this one, rather than sell the battery at a big loss and buy a new one, i sold all my cars and batteries, so i dont even have anything else i could use the battery for, so i might just roll with what i have available.

      to be honest i could cut the back of the tray out and secure it with velcro straps, but it would be a bodge just for the sake of running it about for 15 mins, then id be annoyed i hacked at it :lol:

  19. Our UK postal service is getting so bad nowadays, when you order from China, it's not even a case of 'as long as you don't mind waiting a bit longer' it's more like 'if you want faster service than a UK shop'... Another 6 days order just arrived from China, economy post, including the weekend.

  22. Charged some LiPos, got our bags packed and trucks ready, headed out 30 minutes to the bash site, literally as my Dad turned the car key off, it poured down... Driving back, decided to call in at another place as it was getting out brighter... Pulled up and it started heaving it down yet again.... Third time lucky we thought, another place on the way back, looked nice overhead, we pull up and it pours down! :(

  24. Has anyone else had any E-Mails from BT about reports of illegally streaming movies?

    Dad watched a movie last night on his laptop (an actually legit paid for DVD I might add) and I've had a warning today that it's an illegally streamed movie :rolleyes:

    I don't even download films anymore or really watch them come to that.

    Surely, there must be something against a third party watching the activity on my Internet?

    Especially as their information is clearly wrong?

    1. Scoobie007

      is it a genuine email, from actual BT themselves, or is it a scam made to look like an official email
