  1. There just the wires off the motor kill button. My spring went in the button so I just cut it off. They go to the flywheel magneto thingy. Yeah so if you're showing closed while open you must have a short on the kill button or the magneto or even possibly on the killswitch. Also check you're spark plug. I had a issue with power draining and it turned out to be a bad plug. Also if you've not got you're receiver and transmitter plugged in and on the switchblade if you got one it will keep the circuit closed!
  2. Yup 100% The only thing I can think is it was warm in the house and I use a ammo box but I've charged other batteries in there with no issue. Maybe it could be my charger is faulty as the temperature was indicated on there and my cut off is set to 50c so it wasn't charging. The batteries where not hot to touch and have not balloned or vent. So not really sure to be honest. Maybe I'm charging them to high as within 10 mins it had charged from 30% to 50% but now has decreased to 45%.
  3. So I brought 2 of these batteries and I'm using a Skyrc D100 charger. So they where in some sort of storage state and where about 30% charged. So today I tried to charge them to use tomorrow but after a 5 mins charging I noticed they both hit 57c(ish) I'm pretty sure they shouldn't get that hot but I'm not 100%.

  5. Considering the price of current MCD this could possibly hit the 3k mark
  6. So to start get rid of any switchblade they are overpriced and ****. I've had 2 of them and they only last a couple of weeks. I've had a dynamite for last 5 months and never had a issue with it. When you had you're bump did the engine stop and not get restarted? Check the engine compression you could've pooped the ring! I highly doubt there is any issue with the carb as its technically over fueling which could also cause the engine to flood. The kill swith on the engine just take it off completely. It works in the way the when the circuit is open the engine will fire, if the circuit complete or close then engine will not fire. I put a pic of my killswitch! I just have bare wires. As it is now it will start. If I connect the wires the engine won't start. I also have a remote dynamite kill switch
  7. Them switchblades are ****! Get a Dynamite they much better
  8. Could be a number of reasons. I'm in Dagenham even now any then so could have a look at it. It most likely fuel. You hot a list of things to check. The fuel filter, airfilter, check for spark. Clean the carb. Check the piston through the plug hole. Does it have failsafes
  9. To create sections. It's air dry nylon clay and worked better than I expected. If one battery blows I don't wanna lose both hopefully
  10. I have a few in the lid just for condensation ect but I mainly use them when I'm doing other stuff and can't watch it so say. When I say this maybe I'll be doing the washing up or hoovering ect otherwise if I'm just watching TV or on the computer I'll charge it in the open in front of me
  11. So I though ild upload my storage box and my dual charging box.
  12. Mostly the screw on bottom of chassis. The rest usually stay in but anything metal on metal.
  13. You want the choke open while running ect the plastic bags just for starting
  14. The chokes just to cut the air intake and fill the engine with fuel so a plastic bag over a airfilter for a pull or 2 does the same job as a choke. By all means you can use you're hand to cover the filter but it gets oily
  15. Remove the choke. Keep a plastic bag handy and put that over the airfilter to act as a choke when you need to
  16. I'd say that's from you're gearbox
  17. Just any 15kg digital servo. I use a 10kg re3ly servo with no problems. I even trim the voltage down
  18. I've a ammo box, I drilled a hole and run some extentions. Packed that area with clay. And then I have 3 zip locks of sand
  19. No chance. I've 2 high voltage servos as soon as they both working the amp discharge is too much for the 6v
  20. No Bournemouth bashing 🤣 I know this is old but I thought ild reply. The Ilford BMX club guy bitched at me the other day 😂
