      Uninsured drivers are a bit of a special case. Since they have no insurance to pay you, you are pretty much on your own. Some policies do cover against damage from uninsured drivers, but not all. You can in theory sue for damages - some insurance companies will even help with that, but remember a big reason people drive without insurance is that they don't have much money so it might not get you much.

      Uninsured drivers are a special type of scum.....

      I'm happy to wait too but gotta watch the parts aren't over the vat allowance of £15. If it is over, slap another £20 on it :ack:

      I don't think any RC at the minute is sought after. The market seems a little dull everywhere right now but that may just be the tine of the year ?

      Yea jim just havent used any of them in ages so may aswell sell a few. Probably gonna hold onto the baja flux. And i need to strip down fully and rebuild both savages then ill probably post them for sale here. And yes the trophy is nitro its the hot bodies lightning so the older version but has updated parts and works perfectly.

      Yea I was a bit like that, then I took the ST-1 out & had a great time & ended up with a savage XL, after selling a load of cars off!

      But It would be a loss of the best rc I've had so I won't go to hard finding anyone to view lol.

    3. Oh How Original

      It's not worth it, unless you can at least see a video of it starting from cold and it's a reputable member of the forums.

      Also a 5sc bumper and km remote light kit.

  6. Are the hobao hyper 7 .21 engines any good? Never tried them

    1. evssv

      I think deep fried is best, with a sauce of your choice and rice,chips or noodles.

      Try wrapping one in pastry and cooking on a medium heat for a couple of hours, serve with spuds, veg and gravy.

    1. RCbutcher

      RCbutcher

      Seems about right for them if new lol. Otherwise ide wait for a full set around that price in used condition.

      Would losi 8 shocks fit?

    2. RCbutcher

      RCbutcher

      Another possible option and cheaper is the hpi apache shocks they are the same I think but ther plastic

    3. rctech132

      rctech132

      They're for a trophy buggy so any buggy shocks should fit... 97mm at the front and 112mm at the back

      its been in the shed for a while and looking rather dirty but i enjoy cleaning... I can already see its missing a front driveshaft and a centre dog bone but comes with servos so we'll see if they work that'll save me some money

    3. RCbutcher

      RCbutcher

      That sounds good mate isn't that the same thing the vorza came from?

    4. rctech132

      rctech132

      I'm not sure about the vorza but it's basically exactly the same as the trophy buggy...

  9. can someone recommend a good waterproof metal geared servo that'll do the steering on a 1/8 monster truck.

  10. No one would have a cheap cheap baja roller/ project/ pile of parts that they'd be looking to get rid of would they?

    1. MAZ

      MAZ

      There's a couple of rollers on this Facebook page:

      Any bits in particular?

    3. rctech132

      rctech132

      Maz I've requested to join group as its a closed group.. cheers for the link though. And smeghead28 none in particular but preferably a large bundle if not nearly complete don't mind about condition as I'm looking for a long term project to build up a second baja this time with a proper engine though

  11. steering servo in the savage gave up on me again today.... getting sick of replacing things that shouldn't be breaking no bump or jump landing just stops..

      Them servos are crap mate

    3. shdaxner

      shdaxner

      Yeah to be fair that particular servo is pretty useless - this has been a brilliant servo for me so far http://www.modelsport.co.uk/savox-monster-torque-high-voltage-metal-gear-standard-digital-servo/rc-car-products/378700

    4. RCbutcher

      rctech132

      Smeghead28 yes and no.. they're both running now but the savage could do with some new hexes as they're bodged up atm. And the baja I'm just thinking of things to make it stronger to prevent future breaks

    3. rctech132

      rctech132

      or I'm considering XL'ing my savage flux

    4. jordan_bench10

      Dtop me a pm if you considering xling the flux mate

  13. whats the best way to make a savage flux XL... theres the hpi conversion kit... or is alza chassis and get the axles separate a better option.

    2. smeghead28

      smeghead28

      Works best if you hve the original tools,the wheel wrench and the multi spanner.The spanner holds the sock body and there is a section in the wheel wrench tool to remove the top with.

    3. Noj

      Noj

      Don't fill them from the top, only the bottom :)

    4. rctech132

      rctech132

      why not from the top? (which is how i filled them now lol)

  15. Realised I had a spare brake disk... So the savy x4.6 is back together again and about to start her up for the first time in months

    1. Bigjimknickers

  16. Are the mad max beadlocks for the baja any good?

      Assumed you wanted to change now since you asked if Mad Max are good.

    3. rctech132

      rctech132

      mainly because i like the orange colour and those were the first ones i saw in orange! lol and I'm just thinking ahead

      Ahh fair enough bud, well Silverback are the only ones to buy :) top quality beadlocks and top quality service from Neil.

  17. Advice on the best batteries that fit in a baja flux to run 8s?

      I'm assuming they fit hight wise? Stupid question as you said you used them but they look quite tall

    3. Noj

      Noj

      I lay them down, Tug stands them up. I have plenty of added padding to stop them sliding about... :)

    4. rctech132

      rctech132

      Are you using the stock battery box though or have you strapped them down inside he chassis

      Great. Until you go ploughing into that lake at Oxshott & it's goes pop..

    4. rctech132

      rctech132

      Jim I'll be more careful with this one as if those electrics go boom it's almost the same price as buying a whole new 10th scale haha

  20. What sort of price would I be looking at getting for an iPhone 4s 16gb in black (unlocked). The screen has no marks whatsoever as it's always had a screen protector on it. The back has a few very light scratches and some marks which I think is just old dust and dirt from being inside a case. Brushed aluminium sides are also spotless.
