  4. Dot 4 break oil, slap it on leave for a few mins then remove, probably have to repeat few times if doing a full shell, doesnt damage the lexan in anyway.

  16. How do you get a car to do this in the air, is it something to do with steering while airborn, check out the clip at about 13 seconds in.
  17. ijumprc makes some lovely vids, great editing . and obviously djmedic, he got me hooked, I bought a truggy flux and thought I could just run it and maybe a little clean now and again and that would be it lmao 4 cars and hundreds of pounds later....................how very nieve.
  18. With j e models closing , I thought to myself , what did people do before the internet arrived, ive only been serious about the hobby since this year so ive always bought online and thought nothing of it. Has the internet brought more followers to the world of rc, or has it always been this popular, did you old timers physically visit hobby stores in the flesh to buy cars , parts ect. I remember being a nipper and standing in beaties gazing up at the top shelf and dreaming of maybe one day owning one of those tamiya hornets. I dont think I would be in this hobby if it wasnt for the internet. A sign of the times...........
  19. I recently got parts from them that I couldnt get elsewhere, sorry to see them go.
  20. Nice work mate, what air brush and compressor you using? Do you free hand and stencil?
  21. Sounds like its just a battery issue, 15/20 mins on that size nimh sounds about right, I would stop running the car when it starts playing up and recharge.
  22. I have the firestorm 10t , converted it to brushless with turnigy trackstar combo, I got the highest kv available , the esc is 80a, so far everything runs sweet, and the temperatures are very good, I got the waterproof model so the programme card didnt work I had to buy the programme box, dont know if it was a one off or set like this from stock but it was very sluggish running from standing, then it would kick in and go, thought it had bad cogging until I got the programme box and found that the top speed and punch are set very low. Once this was changed it ran perfectly on a 2s, will be getting 3s soon so cant comment on that just yet. Overall very pleased with the combo and plenty of speed for the firestorm, and at a good price. I got mine from the uk , a very good ebay shop called rcstockroom2012, very helpful and very quick delivery
