Slash Raptor R what a beast and i cant believe im saying this

@Kpowell911 im not getting one, so wont be looking for a cheap slash, just highlighting what a decent model it seems to be
-
As is the case with a lot of Traxas products .... aside from a few issues... they are decent platforms, and with the right addons can be made very good indeed. The issue I have always had with this particular brand is their continued massive over-pricing of their old models, their predatory practices as a company, and the fact that they fail to address so many issues on their trucks which it falls to the aftermarket to rectify while they just carry on selling the same old junk at ever increasing prices. £329 for a VXL 2WD Stampede anyone ..... nope. Thought not. Well the RRP is actualy £409!
And that, ladies and gentleman of the jury, is my case against Traxxas.
-
OMG! im looking at a Traxxarse and sort of liking the look of the model and the price

Thinking i will thin out the rc car collection, 2 tamiya`s can go dont get used and might reduce the crawler fleet down

Trying to find a nice DJI mini 2 at sensible price, what a pain in the rear

maybe going against the trend but heard a few horror stories with buying a used dji, seems if the drone is sold on and not removed from sellers dji account then it simply wont work and so many facebook scammers i have decided to get a used Fimi X8 mini from a friend, also its a lot less money than a used mini 2 but a very similar spec product
-
not doing another pre order, the estimated arrival always gets longer, now got to wait at least a month for the new K5 Blazer and typical that USA get there's but UK is not important
-
i am seeing facebook market place is full of scammers, listed an item 2 hours back and now dealin with 3rd scammer
-

Was gonna say, if it's 3d printed, just get the STL somewhere and print it yourself (or local if you don't have a printer).

This one?
edit: nah, that's for a Jeep.
As it sits, it's cheaper to get it here:

than importing it. Cheapest i could find that particular one from the US would be $51.47 USD, that's all in with shipping and taxes. Around £40ish.

3 items for sale on various platforms, all very well priced but all i get is the odd super lowball offer, at least i dont need quick sale so will wait it out, just cant buy anything till stuff sold

@Kpowell911 yes im trying to be sensible, TBH only thing i want is the FMS FCX24 K5 Blazer and of course a heap of brass bits from Injora and its not out in the dealers yet so no panic, i could pre order it but im trying to be good seeing as wife got made redundant
-
My wife has been made redundant again, i now have to pick up on the bills she was paying, gonna have to cut back on lots of things, TV package going, and have to sell of some RC stuff, gonna stop flying at club as its 100 mile round trip, will sell some planes and trucks its not likely she will get another job
-
Got the feeling i have been done with the purchase of the cross RC crawler, paid for it a week ago, not been given a tracking number, dont know if its been posted and now seller is not replying to message, will lodge a paypal report tonight if no reply, then claim my cash back
-
Had an amazing time at Almscliff crag crawling with the Yorkshire RC Beasts, Injora blew me away as how good it was
-
I think i may scale back on the crawling and stick more to forest trail driving
all but fell down a steep, very steep climb today trying to get the shot, time for a change, not getting any younger and a fall could have me out of work for weeks
-
Got the itch to downsize the rc fleet, generate some funds and get one decent upmarket crawler, probably sell the RS4, Texan,Carisma ford
-
New Traxxas truck, they nearly got my money.....but what could of been a super scale truck let down by the TOY GRADE black windows, this is just a no go

@PraetoR i have the carisma F-150, the traxxas looks stunning other than the issue
@Shergar lets just say you had her down to her undies mate
@BashingBrian no real easy way to remove paint just on window area, would have to strip entire shell and repaint and a clear shell would be £105 if available
-
@Lone-wolfjust use tamiya paint remover !!! easy peasy😎

-

As @.AJ. said, vans are ever more of a joke. Ive done an additon 63k miles and scrapped the side on my 2019 Berlingo, and the trade in today is about what I paid in Jan 2020! That said, the van Id want is now unaffordable, so Ill just run this one down to nothing. Its a decent van just on 70k and out of warranty now

Is there an issue with spare parts for Kyosho models, seem to be in short supply

@bertberr Have you used this site before for Kyosho spares? https://kyoshospares.co.uk

wishing you guys a Merry Xmas
-
Made a start on the Tamiya MF-01x, forgot what a pain Tam kits are, screws dotted around lots of bags probably best to just put all the screws in one tub
-
Tamiya Diff question, can the diff`s be made tighter but not fully locked
-
seems to have gone very quiet on here last few days
