  1. I have to check on this. I do see the current (amp) dropping to zero when it is nearing its charge. I have to be more observant and see if it does reach 8.4v before the charge cycle ends. Thanks.
  2. Somewhere between 4.10-4.15 for each. I always use the balance charge option. I am not so much concerned about imbalance charging, but more about not reaching the full 8.4v I’ve used a Traxxas branded charger, a legit skyrc charger, and a clone skyrc, but getting similar end voltage charge.
  3. I have not checked the IR but I thought to ask anyway…. I’ve noticed that my 2s lipos are not charging to 8.4v, and will end charge at 8.3v instead. The batteries are about 4y/o and was always kept in storage charge when not in use. Does this mean the batteries are starting to decline and will near its end of life soon? No physical damage whatsoever…

    TT-02 RWD

    It actually is a decent RWD drifter should you decide to go that route...
  5. Thank you all... for one, I only notice this because I am using a very light oil and soft springs so I was expecting a very active dampening action... I re-did the assembly and I ended up just using a single red o-ring instead of 2 per the instruction... when using 2 o-rings, I find that the shaft is not as smooth and there is a reasonable friction... same goes for all of the dampers... with one o-ring, it feels freely moving... however, I am concerned if this will develop a leak not too long from now...
  6. I bought a Tamiya low friction damper part # 53155 but been having issues after assembling it... I've read that oil dampers can be sticky from sitting still for a while but should free up after compressing... however, mine seems to take a few cycles before it feels loose, then it will stiffen up again... I am using a very light oil, drilled extra holes in the pistons, and using a drift spec spring so I was actually expecting a very soft damping effect... I've tried to flush and refill the set twice but it still feels the same... this is the only Tamiya damper I'm having some issues with... all the rest that I've assembled before works as it should.... any thoughts?
  7. Yep.... I found some that is peeking my interest... but... must... resist...
  8. OMG... why didn't I think of the CTRL-F function??? now I saw something that I am tempted to get... should have kept my rant to myself...
  9. It sucks that RC kits rarely, if at all, go on sale at Tamiya USA website anymore. I remember before and during COVID, a number of kits have been put on sale and I was fortunate to be able to buy a few. I do check the site from time to time and would find random kits, but that means I have to go through page by page. Same with with spares. Unfortunately, the website does not have the ability to filter on-sale items...
  10. I've seen a few before on EBay, but what I did for mine when I needed one was use thin steel insert I found an old wiper blade I had lying around... not sure how to explain it, but when you replace a wiper insert (not the whole wiper blade assembly), there should be a think piece of metal... this one from RCMart : https://www.rcmart.com/tamiya-set-plate-4pcs-silver-for-avante-boomerang-hotshot-super-hotshot-19808143-00073109
  11. not the super mini… just the mini. I have the super mini and the red dot springs that came is not as soft as the longer silver springs that came with the mini cva set.
  12. What I’m having a hard time is finding the springs alone. I wonder if the springs has its own part number? do yoo know if the xv01 springs are same length as well? Looking for something around 30mm
  13. Anyone knows the parts number for the mini cva springs? I am looking for a few more if these to use for my drift cars as they are soft but I could not locate the part number to search. Thanks.
  14. Grrr… i just ordered a few things last week… i guess time to place another order… hehehe
