  1. i think it may be time to say good bye to the Hong Nor buggy, don't see me using her very much from this point on, seems a shame to keep her on a shelf.

  2. buy 3d printer...forget about the plastic it needs to print with.... {FACEPALM}

      i knew it didn't come with one, i thought i had one already, turns out i don't, or i lost them, either or

      Wouldn't of been fast enough to record quality anyway mate. You need a San disk extreme or other action cam sd card.

      Class 10 works just on standard settings but doubt 1080 or slow motion.

      Camera, record the Baja on 7s? Doesn't need to be 8s to record it.

    4. Noj

      I seldom record ours...doesn't stop the play! ;)

      I would like a skin but always swap and change stuff around and painted would be haggle bait lol.

    3. RCbutcher

      That does look good from the pic tho. Dark epileptic uses some type of paint that looks like anodising. First you have to paint it silver then put the colour on and it looks anodized. Green would be cool.

    4. Thunderwolf

      Thunderwolf

      this is a more candy apple red.

  7. Well thats the TX painted, now for the drying time to pass before i put it together again.

      You should have had renewal emails through. I expect they may be being picked up but junk mail filters ...... silly filters have no respect for the awesomeness of the MSUK-Forum lol

    3. Thunderwolf

      Thunderwolf

      yea it was in the junk folder...of the email i don't really use anymore.

      never mind.

      i didn't thread lock them, my own fault

    3. Noj

      Noj

      Threadlock?? What trickery is this?? Never use it on the important bolts as they don't come loose, so either I bash like a girl or (which frankly feels more likely) you have a girl's grip when tightening things ;p

    4. Thunderwolf

      Thunderwolf

      the ones that came undone were done with an electric screwdriver on the highest torque setting it has

  10. interesting, i'm struggling to find a baja part more than i'm struggling to afford one...this makes a change...

  11. spent the last hour looking at bajas lol

      Do the rear wheel nuts of a baja just unscrew?

      Mine are locked up and the plastic wrench has stripped.

      So I'm wondering if your supposed to take out a grub screw or something. Or if my wheels nuts are just locked

    3. (-:AD:-)

      (-:AD:-)

      Tgem plastic things are no good for undoing wheel nuts. Either get a fancy expensive RC 24mm thing or a 24mm stocket and a T bar

    4. Noj

      Noj

      ^^ that. Keep the plastic tool as it has other uses, buy good old fashioned 24mm socket and handle..

  12. the sun is out, the flux has her wheels back on, and i found my msuk hat.....today is a good day

    1. Noj

      Noj

    3. RCbutcher

      RCbutcher

      You have plenty of rcs to barter with tho. I bet the fg would get a nice nitro offer.

      Or keep an eye on traxxas revo's the 2.5 especially can sell for

    4. Thunderwolf

      Thunderwolf

      yea but i like the rcs i have, i don't want to get rid of them lol
