  1. Built but not used other then a couple of minutes in the garden to make sure everything was ok, then put on shelf for a month or two.

     

    30KG Steering servo

    TRX4 Motor with 1080 Crawler ESC

    G Made tyres on beadlocks

    ProLine Hilux 1985 shell

     

    To be honest, i cut the shell fine, painted it but messed the hole up. It bugged me for a bit so i put in on the shelf and just never got back to using it, im not really using any cars currently.

     

    All you will need is battery, transmitter and receiver and good to go

    Tried deleting my pictures on forum but still over limit

  2. Think i bought this last August~October, put it all together and span the wheels on blocks and never got round to taking it on the road.

    Also have original box and instructions, there is a pinion on the motor ready (cant remember the teeth), steering servo. All that will be missing are batteries, transmitter and receiver.

     

    The ESC and Motor was bought just for this car so its not been used in anything else. I would be happy to split the combo

    Castle Combo posted £335

    Combo together posted £600

  3. Any advice on how to setup the rear diff as open? Atm it has 1 large shim, 1 small. Then i got star, star, circle LSD plates then gear. insert cross pins and gears, then gear, circle, star, star, large shim, small shim.

     

    Problem i have now its jammed when the diff is put together. Should i be removing either 2 large or the 2 small shims?

  4. there any pinion options that do a bigger grub screw? I got RW one atm, pinion its self is fine but i had a crash, pinion come loose (did have TL on it) tightened it back up and im sure its rounded....

     

    Still really impressed with how it handles stock, balanced and just glides over bumps.

     

    Might gear down a bit running 38/39 and its a bit hot to touch, but when i checked on castle link it said 138f which is well below reccomended

  5. My boy got the previous one, it takes a bashing well and keeps going. Once a tyre exploded on 3s, but we were on a very rough terrain, not even suitable for 1/8 let alone a 1/10. Second breakage was a pin in the drive shaft, but i did run his car over a few times with a Outcast 8s exb so might of been my fault ;f

    Been having a look at these fans on Facebook etc, omg I can’t believe the price of them are these guys who are making them serious? 
     

    There charging like between $50 to as much as $100 for a simple 12v 40mm computer fan that cost like £4 on Aliexpress ! 
     

    Okay I get there adding a a cover and a mount a little bit of wire covering and a plug but come on that’s stupid money ! Why would anyone be stupid enough to buy one when you can do it yourself for a fraction of the costs ? 
     

    Now I have to admit I’m not really a fan guy but I do feel once you have it geared correctly adding more cooling will help protect the motors performance and life span. So I’m going to make my own a found a guy that makes simple but effective 3D printed mounts so I’ve ordered them and I ordered a few fans of Aliexpress total spend was £25 and few pence but that’s got me a double and a single which would have been upwards of $120 if I’d of gone with the scammers 😂. I’ll show you guys once the bits show up 👍

     

    What i did mate, i made 3 for me, 1 for my Max 5 ESC and a few for mates, cost me about £30 for 47 cfm fans, mounting, i even got the cable shrouding and heat shrink so it look all tidy. Noisy buggers though 28k rpm lol
