  1. Did anyone ever use those cheap orion motors? they were about 3 quid if I remember rightly? Or is anyone else sitting on them?

      They were old stock from around 2008, that's why they were so cheap

      im right in saying a 12th pan car would be ideal for these?

      Yep, they were stupid low T and are meant to run on 1s or 4cell nimhs 

  2. roughly how much is a gen1 xmod worth? cant find a uk listing on ebay to compare....

  3. about to head out for a bash... one mof my 3s packs wont balance properly. should i be worried about a diffference of 0.159 volts? or just take the pack and keep an eye on it?

      Keep an eye out. I'd cut off earlier than normal then recharge and do the same again. Might just want cycling a bit. I use one of those small led things in a window where I can see it and check every so often.

      Well I decided to go for it before anyone answered. Within 2 mins of use all the cells had balanced themselves. 5 mins later the spur gave way...  Just my luck.

      appear to have an issue with the xerun 150 in the hyper too. havent checked it out yet though

  4. Why do I decide now is the best time to buy an ecx amp mt kit? No stock at modelsport and I'm unwilling to spend a third more on an ebay jobbie. Grump. Anyone got an unbuilt one they wanna sell?

      He should be very happy, a great rig for the price :good:

      Indeed! I wanted to buy one sooner but decided i would rebuild an old one for him. Since then I've re-decided that the moneys better spent on a more quality rig,,,,

      BAH!! email today saying its on backorder.... awaiting an email to say whether they will have more in time for christmas...

       

  5. hmmm, just replaced the servo in the hyper to discover that it still wont centre properly. even under no load it does it, both with old servo and brand new one. both powerhd, ones an LF20 the other a LW20 (new). no tightness in the steering mechanism itself. RX problem or 2 dud servos?

      Hopefully mine was a one off - i've never had trouble with the standards.  I will be honest and say I only ordered the WP one as the blue finish matched a build...

       

      No loss in the end as even though RCMart refused to help out, paypal stepped in.

      indeed i remember reading the thread. ive ordered from modelsport so i shouldnt have that issue should something go wrong.
