  1. Thats a very cool video. On a side note after putting a new motor in the wr8 after about ten minutes it snapped another shaft so that was a very expensive ten minutes. What can I be doing wrong? I think I'm meshing it right but I've had nothing but problems since the rebuild. At first it was just opinion coming off but two snapped shafts is beyond a joke. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. You will break so many parts! Mark my words!
  3. Sounds good! This for road racing only? It will be......mental!
  4. Has anyone got the D8T Tessman edition and have they put Lipos in it?
  5. Have you done it? Is it easy? Do you have some links for the parts needed?
  6. Got my girlfriend one of these for Christmas. She loves it but already asking for me to do a lipo mod, are you tempted?
  7. Yeah definitely bent chassis. Is it going to be bad to run it like that? (Do damage to drive train)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I need to check it tonight. I watched a video which shows some plastic squished in the tray and that may be my indicator. It didn't have any big or particularly hard landings, so I'll be very surprised but hey ho. Innovative chassis next?
  9. Hi I have never been to a meetup before but live in the Matlock area. Do you go anywhere around here often? I perhaps wouldn't have chosen up here, quite prone to trouble from youths. There's not a bad quarry far from me.
  10. what probs did u have mate??but yeah they r awesome trucks for sure!! It started off on first run within 30 seconds I lost a drive pin out of the Cvd. So was gutted. Then I had an issue with rear CVDs popping out. I've had to adjust the camber a lot to ensure they don't pop out. I had a spur gear go pretty quickly. I've got an issue with the car going full throttle then cutting out. Possibly the RX but thunder tiger support is pretty poor. All the spares for the common faults I bought I haven't yet had to use!! I'm pretty sure I've forgot a couple of things but must have been minor. Latest one is really confusing me. I have a chassis brace. My mate used it last so I'm blaming him. However now to get the brace on I have to bend the front shock tower forward to make it fit. But in doing so the body posts don't line up. I don't even know how this makes sense. Only thing I can think is the chassis is bent but I can't see anything obvious. Can someone post a picture of theirs so I can compare? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I went for an MT4 G3 a couple of months back and now love it. I had quite a few teething problems but I think I've mainly sorted them out now.
  12. It was. Got it for a good price. Was pleased as I've always regretted selling my shell. It's just going to sit on a shelf. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Just picked up a 2013 Brand New Roller. The wheels are original but slick tyres for some reason. But still happy to have finally got the original shell once again just to stare at
  14. Thanks Dollar Hobbyz have them in stock but the HPI part numbers are different. Just wanted to make sure
  15. Does the savage XS or Bullet motor fit?
  16. I think a little too much
  17. Thanks! I've only just seen the replies, didnt get notified :/ I missed out on the Dollarhobbyz, its just sat around doing nothing at the moment. Any one know any good other motors to replace it with?
  18. So haven't been out for ages. Every time I went out the pinion came off. First chance with some time to spare and five seconds in the motor shaft sheeted. Can these be replaced or is it new motor? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Thanks guys - I guess tomorrow evening will be spent running the batteries down manually to then put in storage must get a voltage checker. Just hope one I haven't ruined my batteries.
  20. do you know how I can tell? I see. Maybe it's that then. Basically sometimes I charge all four packs with intentions of going out and don't get out so sometimes they can be fully charged. Am I better using a discharge function then?
  21. Hi all, I'm wanting to put my lipos into storage as the nights are drawing in. I've been using my Core UAC-50 to do this, setting it to storage mode, setting to 1.0a and setting the battery type. Everytime I do this, the charger gets to 2 hours and says "Time". When I come to recharge, it takes 5 mins or so to get to full. Am I doing something wrong? James
  22. Looking good. Do you have every permitation of the ken block WR8 now?
  23. I think I'll wait for this now! As I was just about to purchase the 2014 one!
  24. Cheers - ordered. Will reduce the pain!
  25. Just this? http://www.wheelspinmodels.co.uk/i/4389/ How long does it take you to charge? Thanks for your help.
