I only own one RC car, the Mad Monkey of course, I've driven it far. I've upgraded it to the very most, it's pretty damn fast, I don't like to boast. A carbon fibre rear shock tower, and a brushless motor to supply all the power. But now I think it's starting to get old, Model Sport was giving away a new car, so I was told. As I put pen to paper I started to rhyme, it was the 28th of November, I was running out of time. Flashbacks started in front of my face, I was only 13, my very first race. I noticed my opposition was oh so much bigger, but as the light turned green, I squeezed hard on the trigger. As my car shot off like a bullet, I realised that they had beaten me to it. At the first corner I felt my tyres give way, I span out of control, this wasn't my day. The second corner was worse than the first, I slammed into the side and began to curse! By the third corner I was in last place, the leader had lapped me at such a pace. Suddenly my car became very still, my ESC was smoking, this would cost quite a bill! As I thought to myself "back to the drawing board" I still had big ambitions of being RC Lord! I ran back to my car to unplug the deans, this poem was written by Tim aged 14.

I have recently kited out an old 1:18 car. It includes: X-Ray supersize motor Savox Motor HPI micro ESC Flysky receiver

Ok thank you

I need to change the shocks on my buggy, however I can not seem to be able to find any 95mm shock (which is the size I need), The ones I have found are 100mm does this matter and are they worth it? http://www.modelsport.co.uk/ansmann-racing-100mm-1-10-aluminium-damper-set-truggy-4-4900-0015-/rc-car-products/371935

cheers guys for all the feed back.

What should I use my 3rd channel for on my receiver? I don't know if I should put something on the third channel and if so, what? Many thanks.

I'm not sure but I have figured it out now, but thank you very much for the help.

My manual says to configure my ECS to my transmitter I need to press the push button and follow some commands, but I do not know where or what the push button is. Please help.

Where can I find spare parts for Team Durango RC cars?

I am looking to go into 2wd short-course racing. Thanks for the help.

I own a Mad Monkey, and my maximum for all four shocks will be around

I am looking to go into short-course racing however I do not know what people are racing at the moment. Are they all custom built (like the buggy races) or are they very much HPI and Traxxas?

My shocks have recently broken on my 1:10 buggy, and I am looking to replace all of them. The front ones measure at 75mm and the rear at 95mm. Any recommendations?

I have a Mad Monkey and I must say it is very good for a beginners car. However I have found it very difficult to trim properly. Also the shocks are easily broken, but apart from that it is a very good car. I recommend getting one.

I am looking to buy some new shocks for my Ansmann Mad Monkey. The original shocks were 95mm in length, but I am now looking to upgrade them. I have found some threaded shocks, which seem to be good, however they are 100mm in length. Can I still use them?
