  1. Some tough love, the way you write and ramble makes you look like a bot, I won't call you a troll as they're usually a bit creative and funny. You could be legitimate and just an old timer whose out of touch on how to communicate effectively. I've noticed someone else quoted you and suggested you are a bot in the past and you totally ignored it and responded to another comment. So which is it?
  2. Solid suggestions here form both @Stormbringerand @m4inbrain. You will likely scratch and damage your new car at which point it's no different from any other used car, in the sense of it's used and will have some wear. There's some cracking bargains out on the for sale section on here, Facebook and eBay occasionally. Purely depends on how hands on you are, or want to be.
  3. I still have the 4.0, if she takes interest it's hers. The 8XE has a fixed mount, without a different mount that puts speed running out its sights and then sending it isn't really the best idea as just drive shafts on this thing is enough to buy a Hyper 7 roller lmao. Tbf, just a month or two ago, this was Losis current racer and selling for almost £700 a kit, so I had a good idea parts won't be cheap lol, luckily problem areas on this have been seen to. Non standard mount, aluminium carriers, carbon inserts and some other little bits. 😁 How you doing mate?
  4. Looking forward to your progress, the slash is looking solid, thick and tight, keep us updated with progress 🤗😁😜🥰
  5. @Neil Millikenthank you. I thought I bought a Losi 8XE, but it seems my chief inspector has other views...
  6. Which Dell Ft. 8 Pack special edition PC is that?
  7. I'm moving 330 miles away, no more RCs. I did not just buy a Losi 8ight XE.

      I think this one is going to live on a shelf for a bit. 

       

      I have a rebuilt and serviced 4.0 with spare parts to probably last a life time lol - and I don't want to sell as it was partly a gift from my wife, plus after all the effort put into it, just doesn't seem right to let it go.

      Keep a grab an go car just in case, you may find a great spot to run a car, if you dont find you use it then sell it at a later date

      Sound advice @Jack Reacher...that solidifies keeping the 4.0 even more 😁 as it goes I'm moving towards your neck of the woods, well actually further North. 

       

      Who knows might meet you one day, if so I'd love to see a plane in action and I do have a few losis at this point lol

  8. Subs you say? All mine (RE XXX/Sx15, Orion H2 etc.,) were tested on this, the drop at 31s is epic and its pretty low...Wibble wibble wibble.
  9. Change of genre, pretty dark tune but follows up nicely from the Lil Wayne track.
  10. Not a fan of Lil Wayne in general, but like this track:
  11. After 7 years in the slammer, Bobby is released, and drops this track:
  12. Love the DMX reference 😎
  13. Got a new motor to replace the interim 3652 Hobbywing... Surpass Hobby Rocket 3674 2500kv.
  14. The update: - Scammer-san from foreign land tried to sell me some drive cups by paypal gift only, unfortunately he's no longer responding to me so no new drive cups for me. - I got some sponsorship from CastleGENT Builders Limited and Neil Milliken Watches, yay new sticker time. - Daughter likes lady bugs/ladybirds (which is the correct term?), so a ladybirdbug sticker. - First run the drive shaft broke so two new sets from AliX, they're doing fine! - I blew the motor because it was so fun testing it that pushing it till magic smoke comes from motor and can discoloured due to heat is apparently what I did. - New 3674 2500kv motor and WP-SC8 ESC due to be slapped in. All business up top: Party at the back: Tokyo drift stance: Lady bug bird: VIdeo: VID-20220610-WA0009_01.mp4
  15. Lol we saw a female cat outside and were genuinely confused if it was an adult or a kitten. Tobi is that much bigger than the average moggy cat. Though Tobi isn't an American MC, russian bloodline. I did want to call him Vladimir Pawtine, but glad I didn't given what's going on in the world!
  16. @steephill stunning, absolutely gorgeous. I love Rottweiler's, fond memories of our neighbour's Rotttie, he was a big loud boy and a toddler version of me would grab his face, pet him and he didn't mind at all. Really miss Oscar! @Stormbringer - you can expect your recent additions to get big! Rag dolls get huge mate 😁 Our Maine Coon, Tobi whose recently grown again, he's 2.5 years old now. Apparently they continue to grow up till 4 years of age.
  17. Hi, If anyone has a set of losi center diff drive output cups to sell please let me know. They're for a rally-x but other ten parts appear to fit. Other ten parts considered too if you have them. Thanks.
  18. Whose this troll the mods allowed to join?!? Hey mate, didn't even know you were a member on here 😁 Ps he's a good egg mods and has a lot to say for my collection of RCs at this point 😉
  19. I bought a tatty 10bl120 a while back. I decided to open it and water proof the boards as much as I can. I found signs of water ingress/salt so used a bicarb bath to neutralise corrosion, then into a dehydrator and sealed with wife's nail top coat. Also replaced the puny caps with the ones I built for Big 8ight... And it turns on 😁
  20. Any recommendations on diff oils? Want this thing to handle well and slide rather than go straight/speedster.
  21. Hey I'm all for big antenna tube, for me it puts the bug into buggy! Until you land it upside down on a track and it eventually snaps off 😔
  22. What a journey bud - I'm with @Kpowell911on this they look bloody awesome, but a part of me wonders if they're literally designed to be "functional" shelf items. Whatever is going on you appear to be having fun so seems like a really good buy for you 🙂
