Peter_B 997 Posted May 20, 2017 Today the postie brought a re-release Hotshot prop shaft and set of prop shaft joints. Yesterday, I received some radshape suspension mounts, some lexan scissors and a pair of sprue cutters. Thursday it was an rcbearings ballrace set, plus extra rubber shielded bearings. Earlier in the week a Core RC radio set, charger and servo were delivered. All of the above for the Boomerang kit that I picked up yesterday. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wooders28 4723 Posted May 20, 2017 Quiet week then @Peter_B 🙄😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter_B 997 Posted May 20, 2017 @Wooders28 yeah fairly quiet considering that's the first RC stuff I've bought for over 20 years Next week I'm expecting some paint, masking tape and LiFe battery pack for the transmitter. I did actually already get a battery pack, but didn't pay close enough attention and ordered the wrong one, so will have to return it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is a common class here that most clubs race and I have toyed with it as the second class if I do buy a touring car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iluvmud 812 Posted May 22, 2017 Got some bearings in preparation for the GF06 and some TA02 axle thingies... and my holy grail..... original super champ decals 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does that kit need all of them, or do you stock up every so often? My TBLE-02S arrived today so my Bommerang can go again. Seems strange that I can get one from the other side of the world for 1/3 of the price locally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha I think you're in the majority, once my stuff is in the country I'll be pacing around the house, looking at the letterbox and checking the tracking every 10mins.

The time between "Left origin" and "Arrived at destination" is the roughest.
