scorcher-tec

Hi been bashing a while but my lad and I fancy some light-hearted track fun. I live in Mid Wales and was wondering if anyone know where the nearest track is (for fun practising) Thanks in Advance Mark

Hi all Thx I will check on the HPC site and on the hobbyking site someone said they used a spur from a kyosho so I will try a 48 pitch thanks again Mark

Hi I have one of those turnigy brushless buggies which is a copy of the ultima db. the brass pinion is shredded does anyone know what pitch the DB's pinion is as they are supposed to fit thanks in advance Mark

Hi Good point 2wd - 1:10 -1:8 scale baja type off roader thanks

Hi All I am sure this topic has been covered somewhere but i never get much success searching the forums. I am planning a custom built off road rc and need a good gearbox/dif as a starting point want a good strong one for brushless power also easy to get parts for. It does need to be available now so a vintage one would be impractical. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Mark

hi all I have a scorcher with a sensored 13'5 turn brushless in. It runs lovely loads of slow speed drifts etc. The problem i have is when i start from standing the take off is really bad, it sounds like the ball diff is slipping but it seems tight enough :/ not sure what to do i have thought of putting the old final drive back in for the sand Thanks in advance for any advice mark

Hi TA-Mark I am gonna use a 13.5t brushless and 2 cell lipo in my scorcher I have seen the slipper clucth mod by yourself and Rulok which both use the 78t 23t combination. is this not the best ratio? is 82t and 19t better? if I use the set up I am planning will I not need a slipper? it is only going on the beach thanks in advance Mark

hi i am trying to track down a 78 tooth spur gear for a df-03 so i can do this http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...4&sid=28851 i have found a pack of gears on the bay but can't get any info on the amount of teeth. can anyone point me in the right direction to get one. thanks in advance Mark

hi all thanks for the advice and the pics there is a big difference in size best save up )

Thought it might get a response

Hi all I have my eye on a slash and was wondering what the 1/16 ones were like and if any one could post a picture to show me their size next to a 1/10 slash and or a srb to help me decide. Thanks In advance Mark

Hi Thanks guys i am looking into that part no. I will reply with my findings.

**** :/ Thanks for the reply

Hi All I have searched the forums and not come up with this topic. Does anyone know what part no the Tamiya srb Ball plates are i have a broken one. Not sure why or how ( probably a badly built i am a noob after all). Need to gat one from somewhere no idea where i have checked the bay but don't know it's part no. Thanks in advance Mark

hi yes it supports loads of battery types nicd nimh lipo life etc thanks for the info

hi all I have a b6 type charger which i use for charging lipo batteries but i want to charge some NIMH batteries 3800mah. my question is this what Amp should i charge at and for how long (does the b6 type of charger stop when battery full like with my lipos?) thanks in advance mark

thanks will check ebay

hi my 6 year old son wrecked my MB :/ nothing to serious just a broken steering arm(upright). looked on the bay and "k" parts were £35 :/ too much for a basher does anyone know if the blackfoot extreme ones will fit ok? thanks mark

hi yes i do use lipos i have 7.4v 3000mah 30c i think i realise it would be overkill but i think like you said it might be fun (also i would have it for other cars in the future) would these stutter i have heard some sensorless systems can stutter at low revs

hi all me again what are your thoughts on this brushless combo? was thinking of putting it in a scorcher (i know it is an old chassis but what the badword) but i am a newb and dont know if: 1 too much heat 2 this is one of the stuttering sets 3 which would be the better one the 8.5t or the 13.5t? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/eZrun-RC-1-10-12-CAR...=item1c0b37eb4d 8.5t http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/eZrun-RC-1-10-12-CAR...=item19b52309be 13.5t thanks mark

thanks again )

lol

back again does the tamiya esc have a 23 turn motor limit?

thank you

i realise that but if i have a esc which would have been use for nimh and therefore didnt have a 6v cut off could i use it for lipos if i put a separate voltage cut of or are the controllers different
