Ofcom are pretty hot on radio transmission abuse, mostly because it's dangerous if flying models go out of control. But yes, I agree, 27 is crowded so 40 is safer on paper. J.

That'd be nice. I'd like some more realistic buggies from Tamiya, like in the 80s. J.

So is 27 or 40 better for cars? J.

Well it hasn't arrived yet and it's driving me nuts! Still, more time for restoration... [] J.

Very cool. I'm a sucker for Beetle body. J.

Oh bum...[] I'll be looking for another Cheetah then! J.

Any idea if XR311 torsion bars fit? They are metal so will be stronger. Sadly the bumber has been repaired but seems strong. J.

Well it finally arrived and doesn't seem too bad. It needs a new paint job desparately, new rear torsion bars and a good clean. Tyres seem good thankfully. There are new pics in my showroom. Tomorrow I search for spares! J.

Of course, the solution is to buy two of each model, or three if you're a MIB fan [] This has the added side effect of tripling Tamiyas profits meaning they can build even more models that we need to buy three of, which in turn...[] J.

Ugh, that's £24 gone then...

Do Cheetah spare tyres come in pairs or set of 4? If it's pairs I'm looking at a pricey repair! J.

I can see why originality is appealing, but I'm buying my cars to run and I know my original Cheetah burned out its MSC, so the new one will get an ESC and new suspension. It may be a poor cousin, but I'll love it anyway [] J.

34, going on 22 []

'course it's not rude [] In short, my Mums DNA got in a fight with my Dads DNA and I appeared with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, which makes things different [] Find out more here http://www.jtsma.org.uk/ J.

I'll keep you all posted [] J.
