Grumpy pants 4485 Posted April 23, 2022 Large box of SRB spares from the very kind man @jonboy1. Something for another weekend when I have the time for myself and some Tamiya time. Leaves me just odds and sods to pick up now for my vintage Sand Scorcher to run in our back garden. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tbird232ci 333 Posted April 23, 2022 I got this MF01x for a pretty good price. It came with some pretty nice aluminum wheels and I forgot to take a picture of those. Also, pardon the picture looking a bit blown out. I tried a different lens and just couldn't get it too look how I wanted it to. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImALlama 1370 Posted April 23, 2022 These arrived along with some paint (not pictured), and about 20 mins later I as digging through spares and found out I already had them , except the motor. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badcrumble 4203 Posted April 25, 2022 Some solid servo horns for my monsterised CR-01. Two to be used for 4WS. That leaves one spare for the SMT10 when it gets built. Unless that goes 4WS too, then I’ll need to order some more… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bavee 1032 Posted April 26, 2022 Some bits and bobs for the Tamiya Stadium Blitzer I am building: In a way I really don't like buying these cheap radio's. But they cost EUR 30 complete... One Futaba receiver alone wil set me back EUR 45. Driving me crazy. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeffSpicoli 1363 Posted April 26, 2022 Fast Eddy bearings showed up, Sanwa MT44 on order. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JeffSpicoli 1363 Posted April 26, 2022 big ups to desert hobbies in Arizona for excellent service, my Sanwa was shipped within 2 hours of placing the order. I'm so sick of paying for something and these websites think they're doing us a favor, and sitting on my money for days. I'll continue to use them as long as the service level remains high like this. My expectation is 24-36 hrs to ship in stock items, so kudos for good service. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naturbo2000 1271 Posted April 28, 2022 It doesn't weigh much and could do with a sponge for the wheel, but I'm finally moving up to the land of 2.4GHz. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy pants 4485 Posted April 28, 2022 My new to me Wild One turned up, quick once over says it’s ok. A bit dirty, but seems undamaged and complete. A few things to do at the weekend, but hopefully some ‘dad’ time to check it out properly 💥 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy pants 4485 Posted April 30, 2022 And here she is - grubby but complete and a lightly used runner which should be perfect for my needs 😂 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy pants 4485 Posted April 30, 2022 An SRB front suspension arm and a pair of steering rods in a trade with @KEV THE REV. Thanks Kev 👍 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InsaneJim69 1584 Posted April 30, 2022 A Protoform 190mm touring car xlite body for my E4JS. And a can of Tamiya PS9 Green. Gonna do the 1998 BTCC Laguna livery on it for my runner 👍. Something a bit different, I was going to do the 1997 livery but yellow PS paint seemed to be out of stock everywhere 🙄. James. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tbird232ci 333 Posted April 30, 2022 I've had a few acquisitions this week. I finally took some pictures and had time to post. I'm still struggling to figure out how to get this camera to do what I want it to. Got a nice M04 for a price I was happy with. It has bearings, and a Trinity motor I haven't identified yet. It'll likely get pulled apart, cleaned, new bearings and a silver can put in it. Stadium Blitzer that has seen better days. Overall it's in good shape. Really needs an in-depth scrubbing and maybe some work on the plastics. I mentioned in another thread that I'm an 87-88 Thunderbird enthusiast. There was a dude selling one of these New Brights for 300 dollars in a Facebook group. After he got laughed off of the group, I found one on eBay with a starting bid of 10 dollars. My max bid was 40 dollars. Over priced, but I wanted it. I got outbid. He then relisted it due to non payment. Once again, I got outbid and he relisted. Angrily, I set up a sniper service, and won it at it's starting bid of 10 dollars. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
