  1. Put some fans no the motor helps keep it cool
  2. Hi m8 it's a very easy swap at 1st you think it's a big job but soon as you get in to it it's not as hard as you think guys on here said the same thing to me few years ago and iv swapped mine over about 7 or 8 times now on 3 diffrent chassies of cars. Just take bit for bit at a time .
  3. Welcome to rc and fixing them . Once you fixed them a few times you understand what to watch out for . One thing I found is I started rc cars late in the year and it was cold and many parts broke on my cars but soon as it warmed up the parts was not braking as much so I think the warm plastics are more flexible an not prone to snapping .and giving your self a bit of room to bash is a good one too .
  4. I'm from caerphilly so I'm not far I'd pop along see what's about yeaa
  5. Hi I think it looks mean an i agree in matt black would look the dogs dangles . But all them screws at the front wow that got to be a braking point there . Does it come with alloy chassis or carbon might be stronger . .
  6. Well stripped the carnage down got thro the peanut butter an bits of metal to find iv stripped 5 teeth of the big cog in the gear box . I had a pair spare so iv swapped an fitted all back together. One of the small shims all bent out a shape and catching when you turned the wheels . All nice and smooth again . Bashing weds Swansea beach .
  7. Hi all after a wild day bashing my carnage about towards the last 20mins of my last batt the carnage started to make a rough clicking sound so I thought might be a stone in the pinon/gear no all clear and night an tight so soon as I pulled the trigger slow built up speed it was quiet but flying start there the noise was back so I think it's my cogs in the back might be bit worn as it's my hobbywing set up so time to open the car up and see what iv broken or worn

  18. Loved to get back on my bike been about 4 years now it's been sitting in the garage . I go out once a week and start it up check it over and wrap it up again till next week an repeat . Got arthritis in my hands and changing gear (clutch leaver ) is getting stronger every day compared to my hand .as my bike is a 96reg they dont do assisted clutch .unless custom job with £1000 or so . An as it's a Honda you need real grip on there clutches unlike Kawasaki light as a feather. Lol
