i take it the carson 3300mah pack is a nimh type and not nicad so you could not use the riko charger for that, not sure if you ran the charger twice with the 1900mah pack if this would work or damage something. chargers are so cheap on ebay ripmax charger's are cheap and cheerful as a starter charger.

no post's for a while, just checking if weather is good if the sunday meet is still a go. trying to arrange with a couple of friends to come if the meet still on.

Just ordered a performance set for my high lift and noticed a 7 cell conversion for the keen hawk.dark impact or avante mk2. has anyone got one and what are they like, might get one just to run a 8.4v pack to just for the fun. http://www.monotuning.com/index_main.php

Just ordered mine 2, cant wait

hi all wanting to fit a role cage on my high lift and on a land rover shell i have fitted on my xc. what materials are best and how do i construct on, advice and pictures would be great.

hi there im wanting to fit a different body shell on my keen hawk, like the 959 ive seen, does anyone know where i can get some body posts from that would do the job.

thanks for that helen. regards mark x

does anyone know what motor limit the esc has in the hpi e-savage, plus what cap will the charger do, the car comes with 3300mah nimhs just wanted to run some 4200 mah or so

hi mark i could not handle that much power, and he has just bought this car the other week and bought as much power as he could, the collision was during a very fast power slide as he ran it with no adjustments, but the power is unreal.

well dont know what your talking about lol, i have a stock silver can in mine with a 20t pinion gear and find it good fun, had a 35t integy motor which was great just very slow. i find my present setup good fun. and all the rolling it does adds character to that ugly as badword shell.

i have ordered in past from dinball with no problems but i have purchased some small items from them on the 5th of this month and have not yet received, i have contacted through ebay but have had no reply.

thanks for that plain english version of setup, had no problems understanding that thanks alot, although followed to the letter still have no reverse, it may seem as though i have a faulty unit, will contact mtroniks for advice. thanks again.

ill be there for def and maybe 2-3 friends too.

hi there just noticed my error, i was looking for wheels for df-03 tyres not df-02 doh!

my friend that is as yet a member has a avante mk2, with slipper clutch, heat bars, 3racing alloy shocks, 26t pinion/82t spur and mamba max 5700 brushless motor and esc. not yet worked out how to handle it, first run and well check out the picks in the action shots area.

np thanks for the offer though.

any suggestions, i like the tyres but not the wheels, does anyone know of any other wheels that would suit the car.

i should be able to make the 8th, might get my 3 friends to come along too as they have all bought r/c cars.

clumber sounds a good choice, just got a couple of friends into the hobby but not really tested new cars out yet. both mates got a df-03 and both with mamba max 5700, insane speed and melted one of my battery packs the other day whilst testing, one other friend has just bought a hpi-ezilla of the bay so should be a good summer.

yes the front bumper is from crp, did'nt bother with rear.

hi there i run a 13t motor in my keen hawk, i have the following upgrades, slipper clutch, rear gearbox stiffener, heat bars, front cvd's and some 3racing alloy shocks rest is stock, oh i run the 26t pinion with the 82t spur gear and find this a good match.

crp have stopped selling the front shocks and was woundering which shocks fit the front.

hi there just got a original frog of the bay and was wanting to upgrade the drive train so that it could handle larger motors without causing problems, just bought new front end, newer rear shocks, pinions, new body shell, crp bumper, new chassis and the crp front shock mounts. was just going to fit something like a sport tuned in there for know and was woundering what other items i would require to convert to re-re reliability.

bought athis esc from someone off ebay. Now it runs perfect forward, but no reverse, i know you can desable the reverse function, but i can work out how to set to default or whether its a problem with the esc, ive looked at the setup sheet on the esc and on the mtroniks webpage and still dont understand the setup process, maybe im a little thick or not but i cant work out how to do it. HELP!

help is required to hop-up the suspension layout, already done a bit of work, with steering servo up front and now want to change to 4 link, but finding it difficult to find some turn buckles that are long enough for the job, does anyone know of any off the shelf parts i could buy that suit the purpose, im sure any info would helpful to lots of members.
