  1. 3 Racing carbon steering set arrived over the weekend, so fitted it this morning.
  2. There seems to be quite a few DB01 on eBay? I got mine on UK eBay from a Japanese seller for about the same price as a Dark Impact.
  3. The moment of truth has arrived. My latest Buyee order is currently sitting in UK customs... It's a consolidated order of a couple of cars (one NIB) and a few hop ups. All in all, if i got charged VAT it could be another £50. Still cheaper than buying in UK and couldn't get many of the bits or one of the kits anywhere else. Went through the hassle of having to have the grease/oil removed from the box. A process that took them 7 days in the end, even though I agreed to them removing it within one day. Chased it on day three, they said it sometimes takes 3-4 days to process. Chased on day 5 and they said, sometimes it takes 5 days to process it...
  4. Up to you obviously, but as i said, only use on metal to metal as Loctite can degrade plastic.
  5. Can't comment on the static kits, but for the lunchbox you only use loctite for screws that are being screwed into something else metal. Do NOT use it on plastic parts.
  6. Carbon reinforced tub for the TB04 Pro, it seems the Pro will become an R. Wasn't sure to get this or not, at least this way I'll have a spare tub!
  7. Seconded on the Wera Hex plus. You can also get them with T shaped handles if you prefer.
  8. Funny you should say this, as I did a Mon-tech body the other days using their masks, and afterwards thought to my self how much better they were compared to the Tamiya ones.
  9. Had a few minutes spare, so got a run in on the driveway with the M05. Much faster track than last month for sure! Only practised for a handful of laps before getting a measured run in. Felt like I was in the groove towards the end. What a blast!
  10. Ha, I dipped my toe in this week and bought a second hand Flashforge Finder 3 for a very good price. I got this model as it's very simple to use, it's often used in schools etc. I've only got as far as downloading Cura (slicing software) and Fusion 360 (free CAD software), and doing 1 test print of a train which didn't quite come out as planned (need to adjust nozzle heat and rotate the model before printing I think). Like you, I plan on making / designing parts, but more likely things like servo mounts and braces or scale parts for my CC02.
  11. 3 racing steering set for M07 build and some GPM alloy parts for the TB04 build. All from Record.
  12. Some bits and pieces for the M07 that's not he way, including a Dino body (yes it's not front wheel drive) and some fluorine coated suspension balls for the TB04 pro.
  13. Decided my M05, set up for rally with the RA front knuckes/hubs is too high for postal racing...maybe the M07 that is on the way will be ready for this round. Otherwise i'll give it a go with a TT02.
  14. Buyee? I saw a CC01 Hilux on there and almost bought it.
