  1. I got 2 for my boys, put a full light kit in each one, then got another for myself and ended up putting lights in that one as well. Not an easy task in that tiny little body. The clear chassis and yellow gears is a must have. Lol. But the outdrives are too soft for hot motors.
  2. Moved the basket to show off the chopper handlebars more. And make space for a headlight maybe. New footplates from the razor e100 scooter deck that I chopped up for the front motor. And a partial chain guard.
  3. I've heard Japanese people never make mistakes and the man who created all these erasers has been banished to live in America, all his erasers are being distributed to the west to erase all the political mistakes, distribution is set to continue for the next 2000 years. The man from Japan is laughing now..
  4. Isn't that £135?. Which is the cut off point for VAT, I think it was last time I looked at Tamico prices, used to use them loads before all this Edit to add: 165euros =£146.65 today
  5. I'll have to do some maths if I remember how, and see if I've lost time or gained it. Thanks for the further confusion, I thought I had sussed it out.. Has anyone mentioned aliens yet?
  6. I'm confused!!!!? Easily done.. I bought the 40th anniversary when I was 40,, I didn't think I was 45 yet but there's already a 45th anniversary?? And one day, I'm going to be 50??? Edit 2 add. 40 years of Tamiya?, Vs 45 years of Tamiya RC, I think I'm ok now, where did that time go?
  7. If you don't mind modifying the original chassis, you can make it fast enough to be fun. Brushless 1/18th scale combo. Lipo racing pack Receiver and radio. Upgraded steering servo. The quick drive range is totally underrated, bulletproof, is it the one with the 2 speed gearbox?. I've had the buggy version at +40mph regularly.
  8. Google kyosho double dare+Tamiyaclub , I think it maybe one of a similar series?. https://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=111774
  9. Kyosho car crusher series?
  10. You may laugh,... I used to regularly dream about pulling wheelies in my 1/1 car ... It's a gearheads equivalent of taking flight, the freedom of being able to blip the nose to the sky anytime you feel is a gearheads nirvana.. It's perfectly natural but only for gearheads.
  11. Just needs a cupholder,,,, for my beer...lol. I actually want to put a motorcycle headlight on the front, big round chrome one, And a trailer to carry all the batteries I'm going to need when I want to cover some distance on it..
  12. Paint it black!!! New footplate/ electronics cover/ battery stay. Ground clearance Handlebars as footpegs, fitted to bottom of bike frame after chopping off the bottom bracket from bike frame. Metal bracket for additional batteries for extra runtime or more speed once I upgrade the controller. (The e100 ESC runs on 36volts but the ESC from the bigger e300 will only run on 24volts.) Rumour has it that "Dexter" started his career on electric scooters??? 2 wheel drive!!!!
  13. A Tamiya that keeps up with a Traxxas on the trails?? Some say that my Clodbuster could keep up with any Traxxas and beat all of them if it wanted to, All we know is that it's called the Clodbuster. Buy 2 Clods, sell most of one kit apart from the axles.. you can then offset the cost of the extra axle by selling the additional parts.. Keep up with a TRX???. Run right over the top of it. 😄😁 Stretched 4wd also works well.
  14. Craft yourself a mould from granite with your bare hands and 3 weeks after you produce your very own body, they will release it.
  15. Kubelwagen, and schwimmwagen(it's gotta schwim!!!) Trekker would also be cool, or a Type 181/Thing depending on location. A scale model of a working VW engine would be cool. Moving pistons, pushrods and cams, with LED,s to represent fire ...in 1/10 would be great.. Make a great upgrade for the influx of air-cooled VW's released recently..
  16. Blazing blazer And Monster beetle!!!!!, Oh!!!, They already did the monster beetle? Ok. I'm guessing a fully interchangeable chassis, with symmetrical front and back with spacers and an option for one motor or 2, or join them all together to make a Tamiya human,,,,, errrrr, I mean radio controlled centipede..... Edit 2add: recently watched human centipede, I don't recommend. Lol
  17. Rocker Chopper has spawned another motor on the front. It's now 2 wheel drive. Still have all my fingers and nobody has died yet Some say that before health and safety was invented, kids were allowed to have fun???
  18. But if you save the seeds, the cost goes down. I don't even like tomatoes or buy them in the shop but home grown ones are so much tastier.. Edit to add, did you know that you can graft a potato plant to a tomato plant and harvest potatoes and tomatoes from the same plant!!!!
  19. Where are you buying your seeds from? Just don't swap your cow for magic beans and I think you'll be fine.
  20. Oh, so you're a pedaler?, I thought they were a dying breed since my invention of Rocker Chopper. The forums only 2 wheel drive electric scooter. Or Rasta bike which still has the pedals, but I'm not a pedaler.
