TurnipJF 9192 Posted January 13, 2020 41 minutes ago, Badcrumble said: I have been trying to work it out. Aha! It is cable wrap! http://blog.rcmart.com/rc-rcmart-18th-anniversary-birthday-mega-sale-plus-a-special-gift-for-all-of-you/ It is indeed! Very handy stuff. I use it on my M-03, M-05, TL-01 and other such cars with transverse batteries to stop the battery cables from escaping the shell and dragging on the ground. I also use it to keep the external LiPo alarm attached to the battery strap when using LiPo in a car with a TBLE-02 ESC, and for keeping the transponder secure in my racers. I prefer it to sticky-back velcro as it doesn't require me to stick anything to the chassis permanently. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have 2 rolls of the stuff and cables that always annoy me (Novafox is the worst, mostly because I can't be bothered taking the car apart to swap the ESC plug over to XT60 so need an adapter) so I can finally do something about it. Not what I should do, but a far easier thing that will alleviate some of the pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blista 1519 Posted January 16, 2020 Picked up two of the new TT02 hard black chassis. When the blue and white ones came out they disappeared pretty quick so this time I got them as soon as they released. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dampers look like trf 53571🤔 nice upgrade if not "period", original pink and blue dampers are pretty rare now but at least you got the pink motor plate👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badcrumble 4204 Posted January 16, 2020 The most amazing bundle of M05 hop-ups arrived yesterday from @Percymon. My M05-RA will now be a far more special build. A torque tuned motor is on its way and there are a few more bits I would like to add. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superluminal 3750 Posted January 16, 2020 Some bearings from RCBearings.The last of the bits I have been slowly collecting over the last 18 months to put into what will hopefully be an awesome Top Force. Now I just need to buy the Top Force. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
