  1. Reminds me of the old Tamiya Jeep Wrangler CC01 aswel, bit unsure of the 'vets forearm' launch colour.... Looks a decent rig tho
  2. If ya fancy a bit of old style Hardcore? I did that a few days ago:
  3. .....much much later (french accent), Pulled the trigger on the YK4083 Bronco this time tho, before Absima get their mitts on it and inflate the price, only way to beat that situation I guess? 🧐 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004881735543.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.ef7b1802evXOpG Just hope it dont get smashed to bits on its way here..... (£462 at time of posting) Edit: Model received 15/01/2023 not smashed to bits (which is nice)
  4. Wanted: Tamiya M04L Chassis. Wheels & Tyres not required, Shell not required, Electrics with or without not important but Chassis must be complete and in nice condition. Tamiya '58383' Type, Beetle etc
  5. Sweeney.

    ID please

    Definitely Tamiya Monster Beetle type tyres on it. HSP? or Himoto? Thunder Tiger? 🤔
  6. I listen to and DJ live oldschool undergound tunes from the 'Rave' days, Acid House & Hardcore pre 93 if thats relevant? Internet Radio Station I play on: https://onlyoldskoolradio.com/ Every other saturday at 10pm - Sweeney Stuff like this:
  7. Silly question probably, have these sold mate? Interested in the P47 or both/lot
  8. Just as bad or worse on price than the Spektrum Smart Series Lipo's for Aircraft
  9. They do the work I need them todo fast trail running on the flat mainly, my Kanyon is running an Absima A10 brushless, outlaw open diffs in both, RC4WD copy twin motor winch for nose weight, alloy chassis rails mod on both, Steel pinions in both, DF-4J runs a 1080 and a Surpass 5 slot 550 12 turn, both are a blast just on 2S, sitting lowish on soft springs and they look box stock other than that but go really well and cruise at walking pace very nicely.
  10. I quite fancy one of these, having bought a standard Kanyon and the DF-4J '10 Year Edition' in 2020, same chassis at the Kanyon Mountain Rescue, Kanyon + 2 speed gearbox + winch. Will still need that alloy angle brace mod doing so the mounts dont collapse on the first outing. Under no illusions here, lipstick on a pig is still a pig with lipstick on it. But I kind of like my 2
  11. Absima have done this trick twice already with the Sherpa & Yucatan, they are made by Yi-Kong, also Banggood rigs, re-badged and doubled the price! They think we dont notice aswel but guess what!? We do notice.
  12. Agree 100% I have the FTX Runt of the litter = Kanyon and im very sympathetic towards FTX/RGT rigs from a 'get what you pay for stand point'. But this is just a none starter at £449-499. £299-£350 I might have pulled the trigger but for £549 I can have the TRX4 Defender = No Brainer!
  13. £275 These were when Matteo's RC Movies's did the unboxing review via Aliexpress & Asiatee's in January 2022! Now CML want £499rrp for the FTX? Thats absolutely outrageous and offensive to the FTX customer base. £299-£350 Absolute tops or the money might just go to Traxxas for a TRX4 Defender etc. I Have a soft spot for FTX & RGT but this is really pushing the envelope.
