  1. You could have a different crystal in each reciever but then you would have to have ten different transmitter crystals(one for each reciever), Or you could have the whole lot on the same frequency. Dont know if that was of any help.
  2. I use a Traxxas EVX speedo in my TxT-1 and find that its not very smooth or responsive, But very twitchy on throttle input[!]. It's set-up right(Atleast i think it is[?]). Does any one else have this problem with their EVX.
  3. In one of the Rc car action "touring cars" special, Richard trujillo drag raced his Honda Civic against a Tamiya Honda Civic
  4. There was a post made by a guy from modelsport and he said that he remembered when they sold blazing blazers for £60. Now in all fairness that doesn't seem to be that much, i can understand that inflation and foreign exchange would have a massive effect on that price but not any where near $1000, that is just over-exaggerating for the fun of it. As said before it has been proven by 'Tamiya Fever' that it can be done and around the price of a 1/14th scale truck. I think at this stage every one knows that it would never be the same but there is always hope. Oh and Tamiya fever, the truck is looking great keep up the good work, It maybe the only thing giving hope to some people
  5. you would have to check with tamiya or wait till its released and see if the limited edition sticker is on the box
  6. If it did happen that the hilux was re-released then they would probably put an ESC in it and update the weak points of the truck like they did with the XR311, its weak point was the torsion bars so they put on shocks. All we can do is hope its re-released, Better start prayin'
  7. i use brake fluid or i have heard that oven cleaner can be used aswell
  8. Not sure if you have easons where you are but they can get rc car or any other magazine you want , you just have to ask them to get it in for you if they dont have it
  9. RC car is good, one of the members does a great article on vintage rc models every month. well worth getting
  10. DJTheo, If it works for you and you're happy eith it, than i wont argue with ya.
  11. i hear that brushless motors are good for drifting, but for normal motors i would say a tuned motor with lots of turns so you have plenty of power to break traction, just my 2 cents
  12. Cheers, just needed to know
  13. Does anyone know are the grasshopper tyres the same size as blazing blazer tyres
  14. quote:WD-40 is more a cleaner, protectant and water remover then an oil, so I wouldn't use it to lubricate any gearbox, I use it only to clean parts or as an after run spray oil for my nitro engines as it removes humdity and protects from oxidation.id="quote">id="quote">DJTheo, i wouldn't use it on your nitro engines either as you said before WD-40 is not a lubricant and one of the purposes of after run oil is to keep the engine well lubricated, Also WD-40 doesn't remove water it just moves it or 'Displaces' it hence the name 'Water displcaement - 40'
  15. Thats a mouthful, so i'll take it you are against the ban then.
  16. quote: Now you need to put the parts in nice blisters and sell them as vintage and discontinued in eBay LOLCheers. id="quote">id="quote"> A frog re-release[], Or a bunch of Frogs ready to assemble
  17. i have a xr311 project i might sell, email me
  18. I am one of three people that race with a wheel radio in my club out of sixty people, i tried sticks but found them too figgity and people cant understand why, then they try my wheel radio and its the same situation just vice versa. how about a stick radio with a wheel instead of a stick for steering now every one's happy[], Now that would give ya something to talk about.
  19. so many choices first the bruiser/mounty now this, i cant choose which do you want to give me
  20. well it is the 50th model
  21. which ever comes my way first[]
  22. Probably because anyone who would have spent that money on it knows that if he waits a few weeks he can have all the Nib lunchboxes he'll ever want for a fraction of that guys price. Have you noticed with the grasshoppers on ebay that all the MRC grasshopper copies are coming out all of a sudden, i never even knew there was a copy until recently.
  23. 22nd of june when they are to be released, or so i hear
  24. I thought they looked alot like blackfoots when i seen it first, but was pretty sure they weren't.
