As per the title, looking for a Gmade R1 Delrin Skid Plate, hopefully someone has 1 in their spares that they no longer need.

£63 from eBay, never used Aliexpress. Is it worth the hassle?

Been looking at the Gt5 on EBay and although it says UK stock all the company addresses are in China. I'd read a few negative reviews on Amazon which had put me off slightly, but as with everything on Amazon someone will give it only 1 star and slag it off.

Can anyone recommend a decent transmitter for 4 wheel steering? Is the bargain priced Flysky Gt5 any good or should I be looking at a Spectrum Dx5 Pro / Rugged or something in between (price wise). Obviously price is a consideration but if the Gt5 is likely to pack in after a few months and it's come from China, then returns would be an issue and perhaps I'd be better off spending more and order from the UK. What are people using and what are your thoughts? I'm planning on getting my Gmade R1 electrics off Santa and I'm going for a 4 WS build but it's all new to me. Planned Electrics: Hobbywing 1080 ESC HH 35 T 540 Trailmaster Sport Power HD LF 20 Servos (not planning on going near water, plus red suits the colour scheme better than blue 😀) Thanks in advance.

What's the plan mate? Line with this without shoe glue and scrimm tape? Have you done this before and is it any good?

Yes mate. They look good value for money, it's hard to get unbiased opinions so just thought I'd ask. Cheers pal.

What's your initial impression?

Where's the servo horn from mate?

Been there mate.

I'd never heard of this model, got to admit I really like it.

Standing by for out the box pics....

I do like a weathered body.

Love the body shell mate, did you do the paint?

Time tunnel models sell the kit without motor or ESC, then there's a drop down menu to add different spec motor/ESC etc. No one sells the kit with a servo so that's a given.

Like the look mate. 👍

I was planning on getting the C10, but another eBay code meant this was too much of a bargain to miss.

Nice. Bigger isn't always better mate (that's what I tell the wife anyway), I've got a Duke 390 but now I prefer the simple pleasure of a 125 twist and go scooter, go figure?

Bigger than I thought to be honest.

For scale purposes, how big was the mountain?

Going on a TT 02D, still waiting on a couple of things on backorder to finish it though.

6 months on backorder, but I think it was worth the wait.

I got them from our friend Align-Trex on eBay, they had another 20% off offer at the time, Junfac J90026.

Some R1 goodies.

Is that a Squadron of Spitfires in the background?

You just missed a 20% discount on eBay Align-Trex earlier this week mate.
