  1. Does anyone know of a Savox servo replacement instead of the stock servo for the Traxxas Xmaxx? 

     

    Thanks In Advance.

  6. In Brushed form it's ok if you want the drift but that's about it. For bashing... Brushless is a must.
  7. RS4 Sport 3... Awesome! I have 2. Both converted to Brushless. 1 60A, other 120A If you have ever owned a Sprint 2.... This is a must. :thumbsup:
  8. Has anyone purchased one of these yet? HPI 114343

      Flux defo.... But if you got a spare brushless setup to hand(like me).... Good to go ;-)

  9. Time to take a little break from 1/8 Buggies #iwillbeback

      A break from buggies is ok there's plenty of others to try lol.

      Traxxas revo 3.3 is an rc I think everyone should try out but a good one not something end of life as they can be a royal pain. But a good runner will reach most people's top 5 rc top 3 for nitro.

  12. Losi 5ive ready for the warmer weather. #service

  13. Seen the Losi Mini WRC in the flesh today.... I'm somewhat disappointed, how can Horizon Hobby even justify the price tag for the 29cc Pullstart in stock form. I'd rather buy DBXL's instead. Losi 5ive-T FTW allday, everyday!!!!

  14. Has anyone got a Losi 8ight 3.0? I would like to know if the rear diff case has the metal diff cover inserts as standard as suppose to an upgrade when the 2.0 was out.

    1. .AJ.

      .AJ.

      Norcoforever has 2 3.0's

      Or wait for KM/Rovan to clone em lol

  16. Is it wrong to 'name & shame' RC shops that basically take the you know what? When it comes to my RC money. Don't play or mess with me.

      When it comes to LHS, I usually build up good terms & bring business their way by word of mouth. But when you start to take advantage of my good nature I will drop you like a bad smell. Same goes with ordering online. Obviously you usual background checks with stock availability etc, then make the payments etc. But don't tell me or make no effort in telling me that you don't have it in stock in the 1st place or drag your heels in dispatching items. Your quick to make the debits bu...

      There are bad buyers aswel as bad sellers tho. Ive had people open disputes against me for not messaging them back the day the item ended lol.

      I use a HPI one simply as I got it for free... But basically any will work perfectly fine.

      Fasttrax ir pen has been good for me. Much better once i accidently dropped it once and the lid fell off lol. Dumb moment.

  18. I 99% convinced that my Savox 0236 throttle servo has given up on the 5ive. Has anyone experienced this?

    1. Noj

      Noj

      Any servo can fail. Setting proper EPA prolongs their life :)

      (-:AD:-)

      Largescale savox's are cr4p. Ive had 4, two the gears have worn(inside). One gets very hot after 2mins and pretty much stops. And one that is on throttle on the 5ive and is ok.

      Hitec 5765 is what you want

      older models will still work, updates have to be do manually with an sd card, some thing i lack the interest in doing when a radio works perfectly fine on the software it has

      Sounds like Spektrum are the 'Apple' when it comes to TX/RX. Let's block all 3rd party apps. #boo

    4. Thunderwolf

      Thunderwolf

      not really, more along the lines of "let block the people that are making cheaper rx's because they cloned our stuff"

  22. That satisfaction you get when working on your RC @ this time of night in the quiet. #bliss
