Well funny you should ask actually Nath, I have got it running again mate and ill make a proper post about it in a couple hours

I thought that 6.8 seconds to 100 felt fast on my motorbike... but 4.8 to 200... that kind of acceleration on bicycle wheels is absolutely insane! 😵

Hello mate, welcome to the forum Your 144001 is working fine. The provided 1500mah lipo will only last about 15 minutes before it's completely drained & needs charging again.

If you're referring to the 2200mah lipos as posted by @Forbez on the previous page then yes, they will be fine 👍

Nice one Jack, it looks good mate

@Stormbringer

Woo! Those parts have arrived already 😁 And the new 25kg servo Now just need to drill & re tap the mount that has the pin snapped off inside of it, put it all back together with the new servo (which should make a big difference hopefully) and she's good to go again 👍

And 10 minutes later another parcel arrives The other parts to finish fixing my truggy, awesome 😁 & a new, much better servo And it all turned up a lot earlier than expected. 4 weeks quicker than my previous order, lol. Part of me wants to believe it's because they wanted to make amends for last time... but no. That's definitely not the case, haha. I think it's just luck of the draw these days with anything you buy from China. Anyway, today was a good day none the less

Double sided sticky pads. 40 of 'em for £4.95

Yes mate we do, as soon as this bloody rain stops lol

Stickered up my new shell for the ZD truggy. Couple on the wing aswell Representin'

@Stormbringer Looks awesome mate! Goes like a little rocketship and looks really stable over all that rough ground.

Forum stickers ☺️

@danny boy That's gorgeous mate 😍

That thing is awesome mate 👍 I also like the way you simultaneously caught it & stopped the recording at the end there

They're coming in thick & fast today! A couple of 2 into 1 Deans adapters so that I can run two 2s batteries on my ZD truggy which just has a single cable ESC.

'Bout time Nath! 😄 welcome to the forum mate

Another parcel! Batteries this time. A pair of 2s 5100mah 70c Sunpadow lipo's. I've heard good things about this brand so I'm expecting pretty decent performance. They look nice anyway 😄

Haha, yeah I hope so. I believe that they had to spell it that way because there's already a registered company called 'Worktough'. All seems decent enough though for RC stuff & home DIY 👍

New cordless drill & tool set. Needed something like this for a while.

The other bits I ordered have been dispatched. Estimated delivery date 2nd June.. could be worse I guess, lol. Unfortunately couldn't find the front bumper parts in orange so had to get them in this silver/grey colour. Also decided to get myself a 25kg servo to replace the current one when it goes. It's only 9kg anyway so not really enough torque for a 1/8 truggy and I don't think it's going to last much longer tbh. This one should be much better though 👍

Good luck with it @.AJ.

@walkbythesea Great looking model mate, I really like that

You're welcome mate. I'm not sure about a list, but I can tell you from my own experience that the shocks are a tad weak, can easily bend a shock shaft on a hard impact. Also the motor mount, mine has come loose twice now and the motor shifted forward off the pinion. Apart from that my 144001 & 124018 have both held up really well. They're built well for the price, and they're lightweight, and for me they've actually broken less than models that are 3/4x the cost.
