  1. Here is a classic kyosho on road car. It’s in 7/10 condition. I bought it over the winter and somewhat restored it. I fully stripped it and cleaned it but didn’t actually replace anything except the glow plug. The front bumper is a bit cracked from when the batteries fell out of the controller and it ran away, but other than that it is perfect - other than a bit of oil on the chassis. It is so original - it has stiffer front springs from when it was built and even comes with a period correct glow plug - which is not in the engine. The glow plug in it has the copper washer - just so you know. It will come with 2 shells, both of which are slightly tatty, the astra not fitting perfectly. They are also original. The original controller will be included, with that mile long antenna! The engine runs perfectly, idling for an entire tank and giving plenty of power with a nice consistent smoke trail. It’s got the upgraded (period) exhaust. Overall, brilliant car, just not for me as i’m far more into bashing. DM me for any more info/pictures. £105 £115 posted £120 with a hump pack - will come with a AA battery holder otherwise. £130 ‘fully specced’
  2. Team associated mt10 - don’t have any experience myself but look really durable and fun on YouTube and I think there’s a thread on here for em. Ive got and old savage nitro that I scored for £150. Absolute tank and pulls wheelies even with a 12 year old nitro engine. I’m not an extreme basher by any means but it’s landed from about 8 foot onto one wheel and survived. If you’d wanna do nitro I would recommend 👍
  3. Bought it! £40 and a 45 minute round trip in London so not too bad really 😁 I think it’s a (get ready for this catchy name) Kyosho Pureten alpha 2 with a gx12 engine. When I got it home I first thought the engine was locked, the carb was locked, the front diff was stripped and the servos were dead. Anyway, the engine was so gummed up with old jellied nitro that it wouldn’t budge and same for the carb. Copious amounts of degreaser and jiggling later, engine is free, smooth and the carb works perfectly. The engine even looks pretty un-run. The servos do work (with a charged battery 😂) and the diff issue was just a grubscrew. All in all a pretty good looking car that i hope to run this afternoon 🤞 Sorry for the long post 😁
  4. Got back from holiday and was treated to some trailing arms, a wheelie bar and a header 😁
  5. Ran it! The wheelie bar was rarely troubled on the loose leaves and sticks but the couple of times it stopped sliding and hooked up even slightly it worked great! Now I just need to get used to that disgusting green 🤮 Also, anyone know how to change a username? Mine is a little bit outdated now a couple cars have left!
  6. Printed a rather garish green wheelie bar and fitted it to the old savage x. Took a while at 100% infill but they feel super sturdy. Gotta give credit to alexandrik on thingiverse for the design and it is a fab remodel of the original. I have actually bought a Chinese wheelie bar but I cannot wait the 3 weeks for it to come so I printed this 😁 p.s. it’s very green
  7. A new painted savage x body! I cannot be bothered to paint it myself and I think that this one looks awesome! I don’t really want to drive it now because I don’t wanna smash it up 😂 Anyway here’s a pic: Ps: Apologies for the messy workbench!
  8. Drove it! Took it over to my mate’s and had a braap around the hole near his house! Love this savage even more now! IMG_3748.MOV Apologies for the portrait my mate recorded it for his YouTube shorts 😂
  9. Get and old iPad mate! Check out dankpods’ video on the icraig and you’ll see what I mean. He does joke around ALOT which I find funny but there is some very useful info in there.
  10. Udr? Seems pretty good as a more scale slash! I don’t have one but they look pretty good, if a bit old!
  11. Off road definitely!! Sorry that is quite a big thing to forget 😂 Some sort of used FTX Vantage/carnage is probably what I’m looking for
  12. My friend would like to get into rc but doesn’t want to blow a whole load of money on something he might not enjoy. (Classic beginner scenario lol) I have not had much joy with the usual but have found a few! Any suggestions or cars actually for sale will be greatly appreciated!!
