Ah, didn’t read the post properly 😂

I had this on one of my cars and it was just a grub screw had come loose on the rear driveshaft, so a simple fix.

Hi Ricky, I’ll take this if still available 👍 Mike

Should be plenty of options that meet your criteria https://www.modelsport.co.uk/electric/chargers/?&sort=PriceLow&page=3&stock=1 Something like this? https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/skyrc-s65-ac-charger-65w-438918 up to this https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/overlander-rc6-vsr-80watt-7a-output-ac-dc-lipo-balance-charger-408440 Mike

Finished the strip, clean and rebuild of my truggy. Had a good look for broken parts and was surprised to only find a couple of minor issues, which I’ll either ignore for now or had spares for already; happy days 😀 Also lengthened and rerouted the esc switch to keep the wires clear of the drivetrain.

That looks nice; it’s a bit larger than I was looking for but that may actually be a good thing then I’d get a smaller buggy for me & the kids to play with. Tempted by that; thanks for pointing it out 👍

Yeah, and they don’t want the parts back either, so I guess they may end up on here (I’m trying to resist the temptation to upgrade to the ET48 2.0 which these are the spare parts for!)

The wrong parts from RPRC! They’ve been great about it and are shipping out the correct parts.

Yeah I guess that’s the obvious answer and Amazon appears to have a good deal on them at the moment. Do you know what the spares availability is like for them?

Hi All, I have a Losi Mini T which is fun but too difficult to get parts for now. I have a wanted up, but don’t hold out much hope. What mini Truggy would be recommended for general running around the garden / bashing / jumping etc? I’d prioritise something with good spares / hop up supplies. Cheers, Mike

Hi All, I have a mini t 1.0 version, which I need rear drive cups for so if anyone has some / rollers / part builds I’d be interested in them. cheers, Mike

Right; peeled open the end and it’s obvious now why the order is important! All soldered back up now and the cells are reading ok. Just need a little duct tape to neaten it up and it should be usable again. Thanks all.

Ok thanks, I’ll strip it back and see. That may give me some more wire to work with too as they have been cut a bit short.

Ok thanks everyone. Is the order of wires is obvious right to left? Or might they be an odd order?

Ok cheers guys, will take a look. I got one from Amazon prime coming tomorrow; only £40 and just for bashing so will hopefully be ok.

Totally unrelated to my question about buying new LiPos (😅), I’ve managed to cut through the balance cable wires on this LiPo, can I just solder them up? Does it matter what order they are connected up?

Cheers I’ll take a look. Turnigy Graphene 5000; they fit the battery tray perfectly, although that’s just what I’ve had before so no real loyalty.

Hi All, I haven’t done anything RC related for ages, but after pulling my ET48 out of storage, I need a new 4s LiPo. I’ve always used HobbyKing for them before but they only seem to ship here from the global store, which is £40+ shipping costs. Where is best for picking up LiPos from now? The ones I want are £60 a pop anyways, so I can’t afford £40 shipping on top. cheers, Mike

I saw this on Instagram; thought it looked pretty cool: https://www.theverge.com/2020/1/16/21069634/toy-rc-car-drift-real-suspension-reddit A lot of work has gone into that I think! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And that is everything sold. Now to arrange the shipping - I didnt expect it to all sell so quickly, got a lot to do over the next couple of days!

PMs replies to; servo is sold. Have an offer on the roller, wheels and shell, so that is on hold for now. had an offer to split the motor / esc, so if anyone wants just the esc then let me know. I was thinking 25 motor / 30 esc.

ALL SOLD Hi All, Looking to sell my Vaterra Ascender, which I bought as a kit and never really finished building it. Ran round my garden a few times but realised that I enjoyed building it but only really like running my Tekno ET48. Shortened the wheelbase and tried to convert it to a D90, but never really got anywhere. So; pictures say it all really. I'm not 100% sure I have every nut and bolt as I never finished building it then may have mislayed things when I shortened it. I'm probably being overly cautious here; I dont think I've mislaid anything critical if you wanted to go back to a longer wheelbase, but I dont really know. Can come with the original shell which I started painting an overly complicated and ambitiuos way so never finished that either! Also can come with a cheap (but I think pretty nice) D90 shell and the bits and pieces for that. The insides dont fit on the Vaterra as they are, so I started cutting up the interior and covering up the windows. Comes with the orginal wheels and some cheap D90 scale wheels that will need gluing. Added magnet mounts, but appear to have lost one of the magnets But still have the post mounts. I scraped the links when removing them to shorten it, so they don't look too good but will work fine. Also comes with manual, original decals and box (box not in photos). I've tried to be honest and probably more critical than necessary, but all in all, let's call it a project! No idea on price, so I'll say £120 delivered for the roller no electrics, wheels and D90 shell & bits. SOLD Tekin FXR / 35T brushed combo - Bought for this car, barely used. Did a bit of wearing it in but literally drove round my garden for maybe 15 minutes total on top of that. £55 delivered. SOLD Tekin hotwire. Again bought for this car, only used once. £15 delivered. SOLD Castle 10 Amp Bec and Link V3. £20 for both delivered. SOLD PowerHD LW20 20KG Servo - Bought used on here but again; never really used. £15 delivered. SOLD Cheers, Mike

Can't help you with model, but putting some pictures up on the thread may assist the more knowledgeable. How old is it? I assume you didn't buy from new so you may have a mash-up of a few different models, for example the engine may have been changed / added afterwards.

OK, thanks for checking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What are the dimensions of the 4s pack? If it fits my ET48 I’ll take it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
