    Awesome!! Shame the weather is terrible for outdoors running….

  2. Anyone as excited as me about the 4s Mojave?  Still not sure why they discontinued the EXB 1/7th but this seems like a really nice option.

      Yes, certainly looking forward to it. I’ve been after a 3s /4s basher for a while, but nothings taken my fancy across the board - The new Mojave ticks all the boxes though!

  5. Anyone had a dashcam fitted by Halfords. Im happy to do the front but the rear looks a real pain to do.

      If you run the cable down the edges it’ll be straight forward. Very easy to hide the wiring. The nextbase models come with a little pry tool making it easier to flex the plastic.

  7. Popped into TTP models in Coleshill today, picked up a few bits and a new chassis to build. Up there with the best customer service I have ever received. Very friendly and even offered to knock some money off due to purchasing instore. Anyone looking for Tamiya parts and kits check TTP models out.

  10. So i offered someone £500 MORE than the asking price for a vintage Tamiya but the seller is adamant that it’s going to the buyer who wanted it first.

     

    I completely understand the term ‘first come first served’ but it’s costing you £500. Fair play for not being greedy but you’re selling  yourself short!!

      It’s a 1982 3 speed Hilux. I wouldn’t have approached the seller but the buyer has not even paid lol

      Boom racing were bringing one out in Jan 23, but not heard anything since - this will definitely win on price though!

  13. Terrible news of Ken Block passing. RIP 

  14. SC Models are doing 10% off everything today. 

  15. I’ve had a deadbolt, I’ve had a sendero, now I want a new crawler, I think I’m too fussy for FTX should I just go for the Trx4 sport or full fat?

    would an SCA-1e scratch my itch or is that lesser quality over my previous?

    1. 53HRA

      Definitely full fat TRX4. I’ve had mine for years, went through a phase of wanting fast RC cars and put the TRX4 for sale. A guy came to buy it, tested it and was happy to pay in cash, but I simply couldn’t let it go. In the end I had to turn him away and apologised three times -  It’s the only 1/10th crawler / scaler I’ve genuinely loved and have time for…

  17. MB Models are clearing most of their Arrma range. Wish I could get that last Infraction.

  20. With multiple RC sold, my cupboard is starting to empty out. Not quite sure how i feel about that, might need to order an SCX6 Honcho to fill the void. Hm? No, i'm not addicted, you are addicted.

      My manual states 2 or 3s and I’ve always run on 2. Don’t think the ESC is different on the Honcho but I did notice it said 3s on the recommendations?

      I already have the Jeep version  but there’s something about the SCX6, hence wanting the Honcho version too.
       

      It is just another level up from 1/10 crawlers.  The only 1/10 crawler I touch now is the TRX4. …RC4WDs never get run, SCX10.II is on the shelf as well… 

       

      Get one and you won’t regret it!
