  1. Ok an update, I managed to find a losi 8ight battery tray so that's on its way from the states and have received the traxxas rx box. Waiting on the Vse mount and will order the Max8 once i've figured out which connectors are best XT90 or EC5 ? Would two of these batteries be suitable for run the Hyper ? https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-battery-nano-tech-5000mah-2s-45-90c-lipo-pack-xt-90.html?queryID=ba4c25d1628d0117f51c4573bfba696a&objectID=69258&indexName=hbk_live_magento_en_us_products Cheers
  2. the stripped down and clean is coming along so am ordering the parts in i need to complete this but may need your advice guys. any alternative battery tray suggestion as the losi 8ight is not only like hens teeth to get hold of but also not sure mounting the esc directly by the rear wheel is a good idea as it will get covered in crap. what max8 combo kv should i be looking at - 2200kv ?? it'll be a basher so 4s batteries should work but what amps and c rating should i go for Cheers Lisa
  3. Wow Virdi your Hyper looks great, lovely clean lines 👍 May I ask the parts you used for the conversion please ? Cheers Lisa
  4. Agh that's abit sh!t about HPI, what happened ? They were one of the big players back when I was heavily into RC. Thank you for pointing to the states I'll go googling. My car has RPM arms and T-Bone bumpers so hopefully they'll last but the consumable parts are worn and need replacing ideally. Cheers guys 👍
  5. Returning to RC and bashing my E-firestorm but am finding out that this model is now discontinued - wondering where you guys get your replacement parts from these days ? Looking for : Spur Gears Diff shafts Rear axle Cheers Lisa
  6. Hey, I been a while since I was heavily into RC, life and work just sort of took over .............. Anyhow with working from home whilst in lock down I've dragged the old Hyper 7TQ out of the shed with the idea of going brushless. My RC knowledge is fairly out of date so am looking for a little shove in the right direction please, I've done some reading up and have come up with the parts list below, Any advice if I've missed anything, got it wrong or should be looking at better alternative components would be much appreciated. Hoboa Hyper SS motor mount Either EZrun Max8 combo or Quicrun WP-8bl150 ESC plus ........... ?? motor Losi 8e battery tray 20kg steering servo ....... any recomendations ? Any upgrade parts required ? It would be a general basher, I dont want stupid power just fun, reliable and tough Thanks 👍
  7. Hi, Looking to resurrect my Losi micro Baja - thinking the ESC may have frazzled therefore am looking for a donor micro t vehicle Money ready and waiting Thank you Li
  8. Thanks for your thoughts much appreciated - I hadn't considered the f4 70-200L it's constant f factor would be awesome but i just do photography as a hobby so would it be better to save some more pennies then go for the Canon 70-300 L f4/5.6 as more zoom Maybe more use than faster shutter speed ?? Hey HappyLad long time mate Thanks for the input think I'll save more and maybe get a nice 2nd hand prime with the pennies I have at the mo
  9. Hey all, I've being getting into photography quite abit lately and have finally upgraded my bridge camera to a canon 70D with 15-85mm lens but am now looking for some more zoom so i can captured more wildlife and thought maybe the camera guru's might be able to help - aawwww go on ........... please Not got much of a budget but i've found these two which seem to get decent reviews - any views/advise good or bad would be awesome Canon EF-S 55-250mm F/4-5.6 IS STM Lens Pro's : I can get this for a very decent price of under
