53HRA 555 Posted January 11, 2022 Rescued a Blazer from a gentleman's loft.... The owner was a 77 year old RC Plane Enthusiast who built the Blazer back in 1982 as his first RC but never bothered with it as he much preferred flying. It sat in the loft for 40 years untouched after a couple of runs. The tyres are shot, rear lights missing and the face has probably ended up in loft insulation somewhere? 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly @53HRA you should retro fit one of these 80's gems instead of his actual face 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alvinlwh 5895 Posted January 11, 2022 Got a surprise delivery today, lipo from HobbyKing delivered by Royal Mail, which had always been a strict nono. I had in the past, NiMHs, ESCs being opened for inspection and mistakingly sent for destruction. Oh, also some 1050s, perfectly legal though. And I especially love the signed declaration. Which is a straight up lie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact it is supposed to come by DPD, but I suppose it got palmed off to RM somewhere along the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if they had destroyed it who would have been responsible? Cos you arranged a legal way of doing it but somebody obviously changed the arrangements??

Cos you arranged a legal way of doing it but somebody obviously changed the arrangements?? Simple answer? PayPal buyer's protection will probably be the protection for me. The tracking number provided to me don't seem to work on DPD website or 17track. In fact, now thinking about it, it had never entered DPD stream as it is postmarked with Belgium Post. But back to your question, under UK (and EU I believe) law, seller is responsible until it is actually delivered to the buyer. During transit, it is still seller's responsibility as it is (usually) the seller that chose the shipping method and enters into a contract with the shipping company (as seen by the signature on the disclosure form).

Don't think they work on the front. On the rear, I find they with 3 degrees hubs, the wheel interfere with the shocks. Something to be aware of if you decided to use that rear hubs. The rear carbon stay is a good idea, the stock one flexs too much for my liking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The rear carbon stay is a good idea, the stock one flexs too much for my liking. Yeah, I know, I downloaded the manual and looked at all the shafts before I ordered that stuff, I just decided to grab a (likely to be uneeded) spare set anyway. Thanks for the tip on the hubs. I had a brief look at them when I ordered the bits that arrived with the car and the other order and decided not to buy them at that stage. I was more likely to run stock, at least at the rear, so your info only helps to confirm that. Cheers! And I certainly am a sucker for carbon, be it practical or just for show.

Busdriver 6209 Posted January 12, 2022 these little beauties turned up today. I have to say the packaging was superb. Each one was in an individual quality envelope and each pair were in a further hard backed envelope. Those in turn were inside a bigger hard back envelope. This kind of care transfers to the quality of the product. The guy that produced them is rightly proud of his handiwork. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
