Hey guys, Does anyone know where I can get a 2 female to male battery adaptor? I’ve got three things running off the battery (lights, ESC and winch). I’ve got both the lights and ESC one one adaptor (came with the light kit), but not sure how to power the winch unless I get another battery. Also, I can seem to figure out how to mount the winch... Jay

Hey, I’ve just had an Amazon parcel with a stack of kit arrive. I’ll fit it all and post up some pics. I’m an amateur, so don’t judge me on the pics! Jay

Hey Wetman, I got post extenders and that has sorted it. Thank you! I’m now going lockdown loco with this car and I’m looking at buying a winch, sound system and smoke generator. Do you have any advice? Take care, Jay

Thank you! I’ll take a look at longer posts. in meantime, I’m wiring up extra lights, which is always fun :-( Jay

Hey guys, lighting should be with me soon. I do have a couple of questions, I’ve ordered some Traxxus decals / metal parts to add to the body shell, which should fit, and I’ve tested the fit of the shell on the chassis; 1. Can you recommend other parts to fit? 2. The rear of the body shell sits so low and is practically touching the wheels (even on the first pin hole). Have I done something wrong? Take care and stay healthy! Jay

Thank you!

Ah! Thanks, guys. Any recommendation on the right kit?

Hey guys, Long time no speak... I’ve been working on the Defender 90 kit (the decals took AGES). I wondered what these parts are for and I seem to be missing additional red lights? The kit came with only two, but the instructions seem to say that 6 are required! Jay

Hello all, So, I finally got my Lunchie running with a GoolRC motor and ESC, but I’m having trouble with the stutter. It does eventually go, but the delay between forward and reverse is taking the fun out of driving it. Video below... Any advice? Jay

Thanks, dude. Stock is bad across the board, but managed to order these; Sku Price Qty Subtotal Futaba S3003 Standard Servo

Hey guys, I’ve just got a King Yellow for my birthday. I’m going to upgrade the bearings and shocks, but do you guys have any recommendations on servos? I have a spare motor, ESC and receiver. I do need a transmitter, too. thank you! Jay

Hello all, I hope you’re all well. So, I was gifted a King Yellow for my birthday, and I’m a little scared. I had a long build of the Lunchie, which is still giving me a little grief. Any, I need a fair bit of kit to start the KL (servo, receiver, transmitter, ESC, etc). Do you guys have any recommendations? Jay

Hey Keith, I’m ready when you are. Jay

Done. Motor mounted. It looks worryingly close to the shock.

Ah! Leave this with me!

Cool. It looks like I’ll need a longer shaft?

Thanks, Keith! What time are you up till? It’s taken my half and hour just to remove the ******* grub screw from the old motor. Jay

Hey guys, My TBLE-02 and Gool Motor and ESC have arrived! However, the Gool’s ESC connections don’t marry up with the battery. Can we use the TBLE-02? also, can someone help me with set-up, so I don’t fry something again? I’ll fit the motor in the meantime. Jay

Hey Guys, Any tips on how to correct the camber on my LB? Jay

Thankfully, I’ve got two spare packs of bearings :-) This looks like a super complicated build, so it should keep off the streets for a few nights! J

Guys, Whilst I’m waiting, I’ve ordered the King Yellow (I need something to build). Any tips on this model? Keep safe, guys. Jay

Hmmmm.... this sounds like a step too far for a newbie like me!

BTW, are LiPo batteries a good investment. I’ve read a lot of horror stories about them blowing up and burning houses down...! Jay
