Hi folks. Whats the general opinion on the best transmitter out there? I want to upgrade and I want something that new or second hand on ebay comes in at about £100 (GBP)/ $200. Any usggestions? Someone said Ko Propo Vantage...
Thanks in advance for any help

it's for a factory TC3...got a 10 turn that i will be transferring to my new gravel hound
-
good shout yeah hadn't considered that. I haven't got the manual because i bought the car on ebay. where are the droop screws to be found?
-
hi stella
you got any 7 turn or 8 turn motors? need one in uK for xmas
thanks
-
thanks very much folks. I think these shocks are non standard ones. hence no droop screws. I have undone them and made sure they are unwound equally down the threads, but they still seem uneven. might be time for new ones! thanks again
-
I wonder if anyone can help. I have a TC3 and there is something wrong with the front wheels. When you lift the chassis off the ground, one wheel lowers down and the other remains stuck and will not fall down. I have completely removed the suspension and the same thing happens. Is it the case of something being loose or something else not being oiled? thanks in advance for anyone who knows how to help. J

I'm after a cheap ish new RC helicopter as an xmas present for my dad. Been looking on ebay and there are hundreds out there - majority the usual Chinese / HK £50 delivery rubbish.
Has anyone got any experience of these things? Only after a small indoors one with a short range for a laugh - but i don't want a wire one, must be real radio control. Probably £50 tops.
Thanks in advance. Jules
-
no thanks very much. very helpful indeed. i'll be in touch with results! Jules
-
thanks chaps. what should i change the gearing to? i've got bagfulls of pinions from my TT-01...

I've bought myself a Gravel Hound for christmas. Seemed sensible to have something that could go on the snow...

Hi chaps,
Has anyone tried hopping up the DF-02 gravel hound? I've sorted the bearings and drive shaft, and got a no limit ESC and 7 turn motor on the way. Waht else is worth doing? Cheers

i was wondering if anyone knew what the approx uSD cost of shipping an unbuilt kit from Hong Kong is? I have seen $50 quoted frequently on ebay. is this reasonable or just a hidden profit? Jules
-
Hi guys. I was wondering what the difference is between a re released kit (ie lunchbox) and one of the 80s kits. are they the same just new? Cheers muchly
-
Dear Stellamodels,
Do you stock the Gravel Hound kit? I would like to buy one as well as the upgraded bearings.

hi chaps. I was wondering what the practical implications are of removing a manual ESC and replacing it with an ESC.
I'm bidding on a manta ray on ebay cos I fancy a change from touring cars. It comes with all original stuff - ie manual speed controller. Does this also involve a forward reverse servo or am i getting confused? Do ESCs replace forward/rev servos and manual speed controllers?
Thanks!
-
Yeah that would be good. I joined (properly) a couple of weeks ago and it would be nice to know how many new members are joining up and how many old hands there are too.
-
I've got a Ripmax "Xtra" which I picked up from the local Antics shop for £40. It has a no limit capacity and forward/reverse. It's really good and simple to set up.
Got a 10t motor in a Factory Team TC3 with it and it's like a rocket.
-
Is a 40mhz system better than 27mhz?
My current (27mhz) seems to lose accuracy at distances over 30metres and my car snakes a bit at this kind of distance.
-
absolutely perfect! thanks ever so much

Guys - just bought a sanwa gemini II and trying to fit it to my new kit. however, the holes where the connectors from the speedo and the servo go are slightly too small for my connectors. is this a common problem? they are the same sort of holes with 3 links inside, but won't fit...any help much appreciated. merry xmas!
