I dont get it why would they send you an empty box they must very upsetting for you?

Thanks, its bad enough bodging one paint job let alone bodging the layer its going to be sprayed on. Also Tamiya imperfections i dont believe it i just dont!

Do you need to prime soild bodyshells or just spray them with your chosen colour?

Hi people, The high lift looks great, but i dont like the big black arieal sticking out the top of it could you use the telescopic arieal that is used on the 1/14 tractor trucks or is that just not possible? Thanks

Good idea i never thought of that! Well i may go for the skysports radio gear seems workable so thanks for the advice!

Yes i have seen the skyports and it looks okay but i read that the throttle is is on the right handside which would be odd to use plus planes have throttle sticks on the the trannies that stay in the position that you put them in and dont snap back to neutral like rc car transmitters, so this may make diriving things abit akward unless you can fix this somehow? Thanks

I prefer the stick types more thanks

Hi all another question.... I am going to buy either the new hi-lift or a Globe Liner but i have no 4ch radio, which is the best suited for rc cars? I dont want to fly anything and most 4ch radio gear i have looked at has been expensive and some very cheap almost to cheap to seem anygood, so any previous experiences would be good to hear about! Thanks

I forgot about the spur gear and it needing the main driveshaft so i will as mention above take the front driveshafts out so cheers for saving me 15mins taking it apart and puting it back together again! I will take the front driveshafts out and give it a proper bashing to see if i can control it i will let you know how i get on and thanks for the info.

Hello all, I have a decent TT-01 with all the hops-ups that make it more managable but want to make it into a 2wd as 4wd is getting abit boring. It has a 12 turn motor and if i just took out the drive shaft the gearbox should hold? The tt-01 is used for the desert gator i think or somthing similiar and if it has the smae chasis/gearbox and that is 2wd then my tt-01 road car should last okay?

I like the look of the new F350 but it does look abit toyish and i cant decide wether or not to wait for this or buy a globe liner as i want one Tamiya modal that is a "scale" model. I sometimes think the F350 looks abit to much like a toy but it looks good none the less when is it going to be released anyway?

I want one of these now plus I need the radio gear and the mfu unit as i NEED lights and sound and I will need bearings a spare shell and the 100000000 Tamiya Hop-ups so hopefully if its released in Sept 2097 I will be first in the queue with my YEN or you can all buy me one which if you think about it does make sense! When is this thing being released Sept. 2006? I might buy a King Hauler instead they look really good to!

Thanks hzero i will let it get a little warm and try it again see if i can make it last abit longer!

I have a decent (ish) peak charger and it stopped after about 45 mins so i assumed it was charged. I think the battery was left totally flat for a week which i think may have ruined it :-( . I prefer Ni-cads as they are much less agro and more durable than the Ni-mahs which cant overheat or be left flat, they seem to much like hard work for a slacker like me!

Hi all, I have a Nimah race pack which is good quality and i charged it watching that it did not heat up while charging. I used my 1700 race pack then used my 3000 Ni-mah for the first time and it lasted about a quarter of the time. Have i bought a dud or do they need to get slighlty warm whilst charging? Over to you Bling_it
