So is yokomo a good/reliable make?? I dont have a esc that is no limit so would just hooking it up to a msc do the same job? Cheers Rich

Well I stripped down the motor but as I guessed there was nothing to identify it inside apart from alot of carbon dust! So having cleaned it and put it all together again I still have no idea what it is! It says "yokomo" on the Bell if that helps anyone??? Cheers Rich

Hi all I need a ta01 front upright/wheel hub as shown below: As you can see mine split Prefere with screws aswell as I lost the one I had Wheel axel not needed. Will pay and not asking for a freebie here, I`m paypal verified too Cheers Rich

Thanks for the info. I will attempt to strip the motor today and see what it says inside if anything! As for the esc this is a puzzle to me too as the size of it and amp rating also seemed too small for a car so maybe your right about it being a plane one... If anyone knows for sure please let me know! Cheers Rich

Forgot to say that the motor only has LRP ELECTRONIC written on it. So is it just a standard 27t motor? Cheers Rich

Hi can anyone give me any info on these as they were in a car I just bought, Motor Esc Motor Bel Bith Motor and Esc Soldered togeter. Normal? Cheers Rich

Any pics? Maybe what I'm looking for to start a project.... Cheers Rich

I actually think a rubber will work on ANY marker pen to be honest not just sharpie's.... Think its time to find some scrap lexan! If it does work than its one less chemical on the lexan! Cheers Rich

Here's a question....if you make a mistake with a sharpie permanent marker, would a normal pencil rubber/eraser remove the mark? I think it will as its on lexan but never tried it as yet! Anyone know? Cheers Rich

As for the price of the esc the tamiya one is too expensive to my mind and I used a Viper RV12 from modelsport.co.uk and ran Y leads to both motors! It is way cheaper than tamiya's teu103 and the Viper is waterproof and easier to setup in my opinion! This is the esc I use in my Original Clod and boy is it far better than the msc! Cheers Rich

Nowhere in the UK sells them as I`ve looked! Only available in the states it seems.... Cheers Rich

Cool! Anyone know where in the UK I can get these from? Does Hobbycraft sell them??? Cheers Rich

Well two things apply to radio gear for me....1 It has to be a stick type as I just cant get away with those wheel things....and 2 I have to be able to buy it in the UK! Cheers Rich

Now thats a problem I bet we all wish we had! Cheers Rich

Ah well as I prefere the stick type transmitter then I think the acoms would be fine for me. Never ever had ANY interference problems with the 27mhz since I started using them as a kid in 84! So the only thing I`d be switching to 2.4ghz for would be lack of ariel! Cheers Rich

Well being in the UK I've looked around and the acoms 2.4ghz is anywhere from £39 to £49 so I guess thats not too bad.... Still more than the £22 I get my 27mhz for though! Cheers Rich

And I'm guessing this is costly too! Cheers Rich

I'm used to 27mhz so what do I need with the spektrum setup? I mean I'm used to buying everything in one box so is it the same with the spektrum or is it more mix, match and hope? I can understand why the bright coloured ariels exsist, for racing to stand out etc but I would prefere clear or none at all! Cheers Rich

Hmm.... so that would mean no ariel at all from the shell! Interesting........ Cheers Rich

Cheers! Rich

I may regret asking this but....how short is short? Cheers Rich
