      The newer mondeos and focuses are cr*p and that includes St's to they don't feel as good as they used to and really light steering

  6. My bajas still in pieces but a set of shocks just turned up for it, theyre in need of a proper strip and clean and possibly some new shafts but should hopefully be a decent upgrade from stock Being looking for a 1/1 car aswell and think im going to look at a couple tomorrow so the cars might need to wait a bit longer to get fixed haha
  7. Aww well thats decent, you just gonna make some bridges and water holes and stuff?
  8. Where you gonna build a crawler course that won't get destroyed by someone? Or you gonna make it removable so you can just set it up when your there?
  9. Could always have a bash at making one The motor on the front wheel kinda ruins it IMO
  10. Went halfway round the country visiting snowboard shops today and finally settles on a 2014 burton blunt. Taken a couple pics on my new gopro (wanted to give it a quick test) so here it is
  11. Just slpashed some cash on a new snowboard so the rcs are gonna be in broken for a bit longer haha

      Snow is falling in Italy where I will be heading off to in a month but thanks for your considerate respone trying to ruin my joy haha

  12. Think theres a few, ive got a bandit. They are all built on a pretty similar design though
  13. I was thinking that myself, everyone seems to have disappeared? Ill hopefully be driving in 3 weeks so I should be out bashing most weekends from then on
  14. I dont think you can get hexs to bolt/ glue into your wheels as far as I know, your best bet would probably be to buy a couple of new wheels. As for batteries I cant really help as I dont know much about them myself. As long as your esc can handle them and your battery tray is big enough you should be all good. I believe you can get soft case lipos in different sizes but they can be pretty easy to puncture and cause big problems. And if your running 3s your diff gear wont last long, I stripped my plastic one on 2s no problem and replaced it with another plastic one which laster a couple packs then I just replaced it with the metal one linked above and its been fine since
  15. 2.4ghz radios, you can buy a cheap set anywhere or just pick up a second hand set on here, driveshafts ive never tried those metal ones but you can get upgraded plastic ones that withstand brushless no problem but i cant remember which ones off the top of my head, 2s lipo would probably be quick enough but 3s would probably still be usable, when you say alloy hexs that bolt into the wheels do you mean alloy hexs to use hex wheels instead of the stock ones that just use the pin? if so, yes you can and I dunno if they were available when you last used it but theres alot of rpm and anza parts out now which will make it indestructable if you ever break any of your stock parts its worth upgrading because the parts arent mega expensive Id also advise buying one of these if your running lipos and brushless http://www.modelsport.co.uk/traxxas-planetary-gear-differential-with-steel-ring-gear/rc-car-products/31675 The stock plastic one doesnt last long
  16. Well the season for us boarders is upon us, anyone going anywhere or have a new goodies this year? Im consiering a new board for my holiday on february. Still got my salmon drift 156 but I want something wider for carving on but still wanna stay in the region of 156-160. May aswell get a new set of bindings at the same time
  17. Happy new year lads, hope your not all too wrecked. Thank God for auto correct. Had about 3 goes at posting this...
  18. Happy new year lads, hope your all having a good night
  19. If you go for the rustler get yourself metal diff gears, the main gear is plastic out the box and ive stripped about 2 of or 3 of them on my bandit before I bought the metal one for a grand total of about 4 quid
  20. It will be all go for me in february (given that I pass my test) and planning on buying a few goodies to get the baja going again and a bit more bashable
  21. Gorpo hero 4 for snowboarding and the cars, clothes and the usual smellies and chocolate
