  1. I agree, it's great fun and good value on the whole but spares availaibility is pretty poor. Not sure if this is because it's still a fairly new car for Associated or the pandemic slowing down supply chains. I have done a bit of damage, 2 front A arms, front skid plate and bumper and a bit of damage to the body around the rear spoiler! I haven't held back though so it's a bit of inexperience of 3S and childish excitement on my part!
  2. Yes I am, it was $28 (just over £21) so not cheap but they seem to be the only place with any stock and as I said it was here in four days from despatch from California
  3. I ordered two sets of arms direct from associated, it was $28 delivery from California but it arrived in 4 days so pretty good really! Went for a 2 hour bash with the new arms today and so far so good! I've emailed RPM and they are looking to make aluminium versions in the next few months.
  4. I've bought one of these and running on 3s, I have to say I'm very impressed with the speed and handling although my inexperience has cost me the dreaded front suspension arm😩. I'm hoping it's because of lockdown but I couldn't find any anywhere! Associated now have them so I've ordered a couple of extra sets, let's hope someone makes a stronger upgrade soon! It's great seeing the videos of what this truck is capable of cant wait to get mine out again!
  5. Thanks Everyone, The Corally's do look really good, I'd not considered 2WD have you had any issues with rough terrain in 2WD compared to 4WD? What sort ofspeeds can you get with them?
  6. Hi Everyone, I met up with a friend who's just bought an Arrma Granite and I was very impressed! I've not had a car since my Tamiya Supershot in the 80's and I can't believe how much they've come on! Those old days of Ni-Cd batteries, ceramic resistors and the servo operated speed controllers😂 Anyway as I'm now hooked I was thinking about getting an electric RC car and with a budget of around £200 I was looking at the Absima AT3.4BL truggy, has anyone got any experince of these good or bad? I can't find many reviews for them but they look pretty good and slightly better than the FTX Carnage? If anyone has any other recommendations that would be great. Thanks
