What's shoo goo?

I had them fitted, I still found they marked the body and rattled way too much! Haha, I've got some foam ones coming so will get them fitted as soon as possible. Oh I like the 90 in your profile pic! ?

That's great. Thank you so much for the help.

Excellent, thank you, not to sound stupid but do I stick them on the underside of the shell?

Yeah, that's what I though, it'll be moving about a bit. The paint is a metallic blue, I may have something to touch it in with but not too sure. I'll look for something I can stick on too, even it it's a small amount of electrical tape? That might do?

Thanks, I just thought the paint would last a bit longer! Haha, as for upgrade parts yes, I've got a set of wheel bearings sat here to be fitted instead of the bushings!

Do they tend to cut corners, I thought Traxxas were good quality?

Hey, I had my Traxxas Bigfoot out for it's first run yesterday, and when I came back I'd noticed where the body pins fit in they'd managed to rub through the paint on the shell, so where they clip in is now clear. I'm guessing Traxxas mustn't put a massive amount of paint on their shells, like I say it was only the first run. My ecx circuit has been out serval times and no marks like these ones. Any one else found this to happen after their first run with their traxxas. Cheers Rob

Yup, I got it ordered yesterday and it was here today actually before the post. I've just plugged it into my truck and it's working, I might be heading out tomorrow so I'll fully charge it and give it a run or two. Cheers.

I watched the FTX crawler vid too, I've been around Land rovers all my life and would like one of those FTX 90's but in honesty it looked the worst out of the three, it looked squashed! If I was to go for one it be the Bronco.

Well I managed to get one for a quid less, so we'll see how I get on with it. It says they have a 30 day returns for either money back or exchange, so if this one isn't great I'd exchange it.

Cool video dude, I like that bronco!

Ive just looked and as you say, very hit or miss. I'll have a bit think. It's just I'm not ready to go to Lipo yet and other 7 cell 8.4 batteries are quite expensive.

Thanks, worth a go then?

Hey, I'm looking at a Floureon battery on good ol Ebay. It's the nimh version 4200 for my Traxxas Bigfoot. Has any one had experience with them? They seem quite cheap, just wondered if they're any good or not? If you can help please let me know your opinion. Cheers Rob

Hey, I'm looking to upgrade a few bits on my ecx circuit 2wd. I want to start off with a few suspension/steering upgrades. I'm looking at the ecx alu upgrade shock but was also wondering if any from other manufacturers may fit ie traxxas etc. The ecx ones are quite expensive but only have plastic caps. If anyone can point me in the right direction that'd be great. I may just go for the ecx ones but if there is better for the money that will fit please let me know. Cheers Rob

Thanks for the reply. I've bit the bullet and went for a tbr bumper so we'll see how it goes. Cheers

Hey, I'm looking for a better bumper for the front and maybe the rear of my ecx circuit. I know that T bone racing do them but they seem expensive coming fro the USA and what not. £22.70 posted then more than likely an import fee on top of that, Just seems steep. Anyone know of anywhere in the uk or closer to home that does aftermarket bumpers for my Circuit? Cheers Rob

Thanks for getting back, I'll make do with the new maverick one, see how long it lasts, the original was only on its second run! You're not sounding harsh at all! If I'm honest I don't really want to put massive Buck into it, I got it seriously cheap and want to try keep it that way! Haha

Hi, sorry I'm just getting back to you both now, I keep forgetting to switch the reply notification on! I've bought a new Maverick ms-28 which I think is a direst replacement for the stock one. I'm a noob so wasn't sure what to look for in an upgraded one. From what I understand the standard ong is 1.7 kg. if you can recommend an aftermarket on in case it should happen again that'd be great. Cheers Rob

Hey, I've just had my Barren out fir a bit play in the drive way. No major bangs into anything and the steering stopped, it only steered to the right fully and only a small amount to the left. When I power the car up it still goes forward and back but there's a constant buzzing /whizzing sound and when I try to steer and nothing happens. Any ideas on what it maybe? I just wonder if something isn't meshing in the steering properly? Please help. New to rc so be kind! Haha cheers Rob

Hey, I've a stupid question here, I've just tried to mount the Maverick ion front bumper to my Himoto barren, it seems the screw is too short as the washer on the screw makes it bottom out, it also seems that the screw only threads in at the very end of the threads ( need the head) . Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to what size screw I need and if there's any other ways to mount it, I have seen them mounted on the Barren so I guess they fit, I just thought it'd be a simple fit with the original screw but I guess not. Many thanks Rob

Oh really, I'll get some 80wt then. Thanks.

Hey, Ive just got one of these, well the Himoto barren version, which I got quite a saving on! I've seen in here that the Maverick ion mt bumpers fit, does anyone actually have a quick pic of the bumper fitted? Also what weight shock oil to go for 60wt? Cheers Rob

Hey, sorry I'm just getting back to you all now. I don't think my tyrrs have foam in them? I've just decided to leave the be. They'll be right! Cheers
