  1. yep although i believe april has been touted as when they are due back in stock
  2. Notice the ciggies.Its not just me thats driven to them whiole im building then
  3. cheers.it was actually to go in my scania,so not really a crawler just to slow it down a bit,and a bit more Grunt rater than speed
  4. cheers guys i`ll go with the 9turn and 35 then. After thisdiscussion your all going to hate me but will a teu 101 handle a largher amount of turns? as in a crawler motor? its only if i change to less winds that i need a suitable esc am i correct?
  5. Cheers Andy,im hopefully getting mine on saturday so keep yer inbox clear.....
  6. cheers Henk.The lhs is sold out so its on hold till the weekend anyway
  7. i honestly dont know yet.Im off to the lhs tonight after work(arent home lunchtimes fun!!!) hopefully to come home armed with one but as for locking the rear steering i really dont know.How much harder to steer are they with it unlocked or are they more awkward to turn without rear steer?
  8. cheers berman
  9. A couple of nice bic Z`s down the side will do. Nothing like a sharp dressed pumpkin!!!
  10. Another quickie guys.With the clodbuster do you have the option of locking off the rear steering so its just a front wheel steer? and would you recommend it or not? Cheers all Phil
  11. Hi All. Another daft question, when painting a lexan body (urgh shudder!!) i know you paint on the inside and and use the polycarb sprays as opposed to ordinary auto paint,but do you apply decals on the outside first or just the same as normal?ie paint then decals nearly forgot,whats best to smooth the rough cut edges out.i dont want to dive in with sand paaper and scratch it to badword
  12. Well Mr Postie brought me a shiny new parma gravedigger body hence all the questions on lunchbox wheels etc
  13. cheers matey.just a straight fit on? or was there any fiddling about needed
  14. snap.i have one in my scania.Seems to be very controllable in first gear,2nd and 3rd can be a bit quick though
  15. What would i need to do?Change knuckles or something or would they fit straight on?Its probably going to be the spare tl-01b chassis i have that gets the treatment Wheres Henk when you need him
  16. funny you should say that....... i meant to ask gruntfuggly what the difference in the amps was,like how much difference to the run times speed etc is there but it seems even more complicated than that.
  17. Cheers Mark.so i take it these are more race bred set ups than standard brushed motors?
  18. Sorry to keep bugging you all with this but would something like this be ok? pointy clicky looky please and what size battery should i be looking at for it,lipo i presume would be best but other than that a nimh high ma/h would do? And do they work with standard 27mhz radio gear? Cheers for your patience guys
  19. thanks,but thats another question to add to the list.say i`m running it in a TL-01 (seeing as i have an ample supply of them!!)Would it fit straight in and perform ok stock or would i need to change gearing or anything?
  20. cheers spetz.what shoud i be looking for?
  21. What exactly would i need to put a brushless system in one of my cars?Could someone please explain it in plain english for thicko please.i really am struggling with all this amps etc
  22. Personally i have enjoyed each of them cos theyve all been different.But personally i have found that the CC-01 and the scania R470 were really good enjoyable builds, The scania especially as it is a bit of a challenge with the gearbox,having to paint body parts before assembly and haveing patience.I am pleased i am not the only one who has had a less than satisfactory experience building an ansmann
  23. Does it help any? i have made sure the screw heads are all flush and everything is lined up properly but theres just a slight catch on it and it annoys me.Also are there any effects of grease on plastic?
  24. Hi All.Do any of you know of an England based lighting supplier for ready made light sets or that does to your specs?There was a guy on Ebay i`ve used before but he seems to be de registered now. Cheers Phil
  25. Hi all.Is it worth putting a thin smear of grease on the fifth wheel to help the trailer slide in and out of the coupling easier?Ala 1:1 trucks?
