  1. I'm selling my FTX Mauler because I don't use it much. 
    It's in very good condition.
    It comes with the radio and manual but no box.
    It has some hop ups fitted: 
    Metal Diff Lockers Front & Rear.
    Metal C-Hubs.
    Metal Steering Knuckles.
    Metal Link Mounts Front & Rear.
    (All original parts are included).
    Also included is a functional spare wheel & tyre.

    The front body hinge has been taken off and the optional front body posts are installed instead.
    This is enables the body to be fully removed. 
    The hinge and screws are included if you want to revert it back to stock.

    I've listed it on eBay for £140 inc delivery but I will sell it here for £125 inc delivery.
    I will accept PayPal as payment and you cover the fees.  
    I will send it by Royal Mail 2nd class signed for.

  2. SOLD

     

    Up for sale is my Axial SCX24 1967 Chevrolet C10 RTR

    I bought this last March and it's been used four times in the garden.

    I went through a "Micro stage" last year and bought quite a lot.

    Now I'm selling some as I only want to keep a few.

    As you can see from the photos it's in great condition and I've put on the chrome roll bar and spot lights.

    The only other thing I've done is add some grease to the shocks.

    It also comes with the box and the accessories which include TX, battery, charger, manual, tools, spare links.

    You will need AA batteries for the controller.

    I want £110 inc delivery.

    PayPal only please and buyer covers fees.

    I will send it Royal Mail 48 Tracked and signed for. 

    Thanks for looking.

  3. Could anyone tell me what this RC is please.  This is a screen grab from my friends video and he's asking for help to identify it.

    The chassis looks very similar to an HPI Firestorm, and the body looks familiar, but I just can't place it.

    Thanks 😊👍

    Sorry to hear about your bad luck. You shouldn't have a problem getting a refund for the extra lipo's from Modelsport.

    Last year I bought a Carisma Coyote Pup and an led set for it from them.

    Long story short, first one faulty after 3 runs, new replacement sent, that one faulty after two runs, new replacement sent,

    that one faulty after one run so I rang them to ask for a full refund, including the led set, which they were happy to do, and they sent me a prepaid return post label too.

    I can't fault Modelsports customer care.

    Thanks for a great reply, i was going to link a couple of you video`s on this thread as i am subbed to your channel, and your video`s got me interested in this little crawler, i have the panhard kit in my cart at asiatees but will see if the new ftx model has it fitted, have a sneaky feeling it wont

     

    You're very welcome. I didn't know how to fit the kit when I got it and it didn't come with instructions.

    I assume you will, but in case you don't I found this video very useful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OB--09t5BmM&t=5s

    I don't know how good the spares availability is for FTX  but the Hobby Plus ones here will fit and may be cheaper too (Chrome wheels for example).

     https://www.asiatees.com/model?Hobby Plus-CR-18-Parts-Hop-Ups&brand=Hobby Plus&model=CR-18

    The other thing I've done is split the axles and lightly greased the diff gears. They were bone dry.

    I've also fitted the hop up 100T High Torque Motor, but to be honest I don't notice any difference from the stock 88T. Handy as a spare though !

    I'm very impressed with how capable these RC's are, and it's become very useful in these days of self isolation.

    Thank you for the subscription too. It's really nice to hear my videos have been helpful to other people.

    I've made some videos in my garden with my 1/24 micro crawlers over the past few days, including the RGT24 V2 Adventurer (Defender).

    I will upload them over the next few weeks.

    I've had the Hobby Plus version for a few months and they are excellent. They are exactly the same as the FTX.

    I bought the pickup because it was on a half price offer from Geekbuying in January. I also bought the other two bodysets.

    Check to see if yours has the newer panhard set up. Mine didn't and the steering was very limited. Bad bump steer too.

    I bought this conversion kit. https://www.asiatees.com/display?Hobby-Plus-CR-18-Parts-Hop-Ups-Upgrades&brand=Hobby+Plus&model=CR-18&id=162617&pid=1

    It's very cheap and easy to fit. It's made a huge difference.

    The best feature of these RC's are the tyres. Very soft and very grippy. 

    These are some videos of mine with the three different bodies  before the lockdown.

    Need to decide on driver figure but already have one i got for my wraith so will see how that looks.

     

    Hello Stretch, 

     

    HM Armed Forces Soldier Action Figures are the best size for Sawbacks. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/158679/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=HM+Armed+Forces+Soldier+Action+Figure

     

    Action Men are 12 inches tall, too big and look daft. 7" action figures like WWE wrestlers are too small and look daft .

     

     HM Armed Forces  Figures are just over 10 inches tall and look just right.

     

    Many people use them in their Sawbacks. I have one for my Sawback project. I can't show you him sat in it because I haven't put the seats in yet. 😊👍
