  1. Ahh I see, fair enough. I'm looking at buying a gallon of Byrons at the weekend so that'll keep me going for a while lol.
  2. Yeah first one that came up. I think I'll be buying some at the end of the week if I get tempted enough ^^ Do you mean it was less smokey? Or more?
  3. Okay thanks! I will look into the prices for the said fuels above
  4. I was looking for a thread like this lol. I am pretty new to R/C's in general, although I know how they work pretty well and how to fix them etc etc. Just wanted to get my name out there and see what ya'll think of R/C's overall. What's the biggest challenge you've faced so far with your car? Regards Matthew
  5. Probably been covered a million times already. I would just like to know for my self. What 25% Nitro fuel does everyone recommend and not recommend? Any particular brands to trust? Any to stay away from? Why? Regards Matthew Peace!

      @ shdaxner Basic is at Halton R.A.F in Buckinghamshire. Going for Engineering. Then after my 5 year training program and 4 years of service I should hopefully get the opportunity to become a pilot :D

      @capri-boy Yes sir sure is :)

  8. Wondering if anyone in Dunstable or surrendering areas fancy a bash at some point?
  9. Getting tense now 3hrs, ooo!
  10. So does anyone know what the silver one is? We have recently got one that had sat for about 10 years at step-dads work. Although I know nothing about it at all!
  11. I am so glad you said about that air filter xD We have a few lying around (From restoring classic cars) and I was so tempted to put it on. Although I left it off just in-case. I'm guessing that they don't stop enough crap or something right?
  12. Okay thank you guys. I guess then most of it is just common sense. Would it be okay to be leaving fuel in for like a week or so? Or like pretty much drain it all when you can?
  13. Hey! I am relatively new to Nitro's. Although I think I know my way around them pretty well. I have only had my first proper working nitro a week and I was wondering what the big no no things are to do with them. Both tuning and physically running them. I really don't want to put it in an irreparable state, just because I done something stupid lol. Regards Matthew
  14. You know you want it
  15. Less than 24 hours left!
  16. I have my old VX-18 for sale on eBay at the moment. Runs well although never had a chance to actually test it on a moving vehicle as I couldn't find the right clutch bell. Fires up and Idles well. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/R-c-Nitro-Car-Engine-VX-18-/191557266638?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2c99b3ecce Kind Regards Matthew
  17. What kept going wrong with it? Was it a specific part or just various things breaking? What makes them a lesser quality product?
  18. Okay will do, looking at the prices of things I would need to spend no more than
  19. Thank you for replying so fast. I have google some different ACME nitros and came up with a conclusion that it's an ACME Cyclone Pro! Cheers for your help
  20. http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/gallery/album/3869-/ Hello, I have recently purchased an R/C Nitro Car from Ebay. I bought it on the terms of not knowing what make/model it is. The owner said it had been sitting for atleast 2 years with out running or anything. Although it ran when in use. It is branded with HPI Racing components everywhere so I contacted them to see if they had any ideas, but they didn't recognize it as their own I need a few components to make it work, Radio equipment, a clutch also finally a 2 speed clutch bell housing. For obvious reasons I don't know what to buy in terms of the clutch side as this is my first car, and I don't know compatibility options with different components on different cars. It would be great if someone could help me out with my problem. Kind Regards Matthew.
