Proper got the bug for my old hobby of Carp fishing, dont see me getting so much time for rc cars so i will be going through and moving on a lot of models
-
I think i need to move on some models, some are not being used thinking rock buggy, FTX fury 2.0 rock van, have to think it over
-
Keep the ones that stand out/get most use and sell off the rest, ive done it over the past year or so and couldn’t be happier with my stuffs, dont get me wrong, there will ALWAYS be another model pop up that you fancy, that’s perfectly normal. Then if you get the urge to spend on rc, go through them all upgrading a bit at a time. Wont take long before you have a fleet of perfect rc that you can enjoy for many years to come.
just my own thoughts though.

Pre ordered the Hobby plus Arktos 6x6 in Blue from Modelsport
-
trying to find a bodyshell 340mm wheelbase to fit the Kyosho Tacoma, nothing out there, tried an Arrma infraction 4x4 mega body seemed like it would fit according to Arrma specs but no it wont, should not of bought this truck

-
Very significant birthday looming in a couple of weeks, and not my 21st, wondering if i should load up the credit card and treat myself to a basher, i will sort of struggle to use one but i do know a nice spot a few miles down the road

Im finding it hard to commit to getting it, lot of cash for a rig that truth told wont get much use, but seems very capable, so at this stage im very undecided as to what i get, i could of been very tempted with the new MJX 1/10th MT basher, but early reports are saying it needs updating to a V2 and now its hard to get already. This is gonna be a tough decision

Sad times are with my family, my daughters snow white cat Albie is to be put to sleep on Monday, we are so upset, he is 11 years old so not that old but he has just stopped eating and is losing weight, vet says its a cancer
-
FB marketplace, OMG what a nest of scammers, im done with it
-
OMG, i have done a very bad thing, maybe i need trussing up in the stocks and pelted with rotten fruit.....placed an order for my first ever Traxxarse
-
-
Im hearing rumours that MJX are bringing out a 1/10th hypergo MT, and that it will trash Arrma bl3 stuff as full metal gears all way through and 4S out of box, should be a total winner

@Kpowell911.....unlike the Arrma you would not need parts for it ha ha
-
@Kpowell911 Even if I go to my LHS for parts for my 16889A-Pro (which is sold as an FTX Tracer in this country) I still have to wait for them to come in. I ordered a couple of front bumpers for it then, when I got home, I ordered a couple from Ali Express. Got the Ali Express ones first 🤣
-
Going to list the Crossrc Unimog NT4 for sale, been out with it again today and just not gelling with it, if i keep it it wont get used so no point
-
I am now finished with Injora, latest order from them is more than likely going in bin, one wheel wont disassemble to get tyre on so money wasted again

@Kpowell911, i do find the 1/10th wheels and tyres okay, but really having a hard time with the 1/18th sets, i have managed to drill out the offending hex bolt but the wheel took a hit and not so nice looking but at least they are fitted now
-
Really want another Ford F-150 trail/crawler but seems only Traxxas doing them now in hi trail 1/18 and 1/10
-
I see Wheelspin models are having a Tamiya open day April 20th
-
Searching the bay of thieves for a faster laptop just to speed up video editing figured max budget of 400 sobs and the search is totally doing my head in

Im paid gold member and running an adblocker and now i am seeing adds on right side of screen, whats going on

Does look impressive.
REminds me of my plans to build an 8 wheel FG based truck with 2 26cc motors, 4WD 4WS, I had enough parts to make it, but when I laid it out...I knew I had no way to transport it to anywhere I could run it. So it never got built.
Whilst I love a statement RC, it's no fun if you can;t take it out for a run!

Still here, will be 14 yrs in a few weeks time. Still look in from time to time, but yeah, carp weather and hardly any opportunity locally to run the cars, combined with being mega busy at work and at home has meant little chance to enjoy & share RC recently 😔 (even the helis have suffered). Do miss it and hope to be back on here more in the Spring. Hope everybody is well 👍

Bit late to the party on this one but anyway... I still poke my head in since stopping being so active towards the end of last summer. I got a bit bored of having threads turning into echo chambers with maybe 1-2 posting occasionally! Even the bigger sections seem quiet now. It's such a shame as I owe so much of my RC knowledge to forums
-
I fancy getting an Unimog crawler but cant seem to find a nice one in my lowly price range (sub £200) other than FMS fcx24

on the bonus front its a green light, did better than predicted but having had a bad experience with previous cross AT4 that uses same chassis im not sure i want to part with £400 and then have to sort problems out so still undecided, also to get the 1/10th i would have to sell another model to make room and things just dont sell lately
-
I see FTX has launched a new trail/crawler, the Gladius, 2 speed, portals and remote diff locking, amazing price , looks to be a winner but it seems to have sneaked in with no internet buzz https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/ftx-outback-gladius-1-10-4x4-rtr-1-10-trail-crawler-grey-1355592

-

@Shergar not in any rush to return to work, just wish I had an rc project to work on, though the Fiat 131 bodyshell may arrive in time

L&L models, are they usually a good shop to deal with, i seem to be having a little bit of a problem with them, ordered a body nearly a week ago showing in stock at order, had conformation email then nothing no shipped email no item now showing out of stock, so emailed to ask to cancel and refund

L&L will never give a refund. I'm surprised you even had a response from them. Made an order for a few shells a while back and only received half of what I bought. I sent multiple emails and gave them two weeks to respond but in the end had to do a PayPal dispute. If you really really need something from them use their eBay shop. It'll cost a little more but they seem to behave a bit better on there to avoid bad feedback.
