Today postie brought me 10 locking wheel nuts, an air compressor and two new airbrushed. He also failed getting two packets through the letter box so got those to collect now. Hopefully this week I'll get something most days, ive certainly bought enough stuff

[Tamiya Era]

Another LOVELY Day....

[Grastens]

All in great condition... Fabulous!

F103GT damper arrived two days ago, and 2 sets of Avante lightweight wheels arrived for me; they shall be dyed...

Edit: And some black lightweight rear wheels for my Astute arrived anyways, sparing the immediate need to dye.

A second boat has arrived to join the fleet!

Not Tamiya unfortunately, but I will probably be using some Tamiya servo mounts when I replace the toy-grade radio gear with proper hobby-grade stuff.

Wanted one of these for ages.

As the B44.2 has come out the B44.1 is now £100 cheaper. Hoping to have some spare cash end of the month to buy one.

Flippin eck, how stylish is that box?! I want one of those now!

Today another missed delivery (load of tamiya paint I suspect) and some bearings that did fit through the letterbox.

The royal mail are going to stop leaving those cards and leave all your precious tamiya parcels with your neighbour unless you opt out.

Some is registered/sign for but biggest issue is I've been leaving for work abut earlier this week so have missed my postie.

Today I got my budget motor and battery. Motor is the newer TACON "380 short can" design only 40mm long vs standard 50mm "540" can. It seems this motor is even lighter than the "380" EZRUN motors due to the shorter can. Hopefully performance doesn't suffer on a heavier 2WD buggy. The battery is my first from the Gens ace brand.

No deliveries, but did manage to collect from the local depot...

4 pairs of Answer RC tyre foams

1 Losi Excelorin 10.5T brushless sensored motor

10 bottles of Tamiya XF paint and a big bottle of thinner

Correction, neighbour just brought me the delivery from Seidel's..

Top Force A parts

Top Force Wing stay x2

Top Force D parts

Top Force decals

Top Force screw bags A, B and C

Top Force tape bag

Another Red Card for me, the sorting office is in the middle of town which has free 1hr parking but is constantly clogged up with people not wanting to use the £3 p/hr car park the other side of the road, as a result theres allways a qeue for these spaces and you get some inconsiderate barge through and park, Makes my blood boil after a stressful day at work. So I'm saving myself a possible ABH charge by having it redirected to my local post office.

[Grastens]

Astute universal joints and ten 1150 bearings arrived. Initially I thought my Astute D1 parts arrived today, but that was sadly not the case. Still, happy with the arrivals.

[Percymon]

This morning, my lovely jubbly postie brought me..

2 sets of hybrid spike tyres

1 set lightweight white Avante wheels

1 TA01 alloy motor mount

1 alloy motor heat sink

1 pair alloy servo mounts

[mtbkym01]

MFC-01

Telescopic Antenna

3-Racing light system

Buggy Champ Ball Diff

Frog Aluminium Wheel adapter

Lightweight white wheels

Superstock RZ

Got some black RIT dye on order to dye the rear lightweights for my madcap project

[XV Pilot]

In the post today I received a red card indicating that my RC boat gubbins wouldn't fit through the letterbox slot.

Luckily they are waiting at the depot a few minutes' walk away, so my wife has volunteered to go get them while I am at work tomorrow.

[PaPeRo]

Got another set of different branded big bore shocks..these will be installed on a Sand Master. The other set will go on a VW Baja Bug.

Comparison pic between the two sets.

[djmcnz]

Just arrived... glad I was working from home today (although the post office is only 300 meters away from my house).

The Technigold in the bashed box is because it is new and was only €30 -

The Dyna-Run and wheel adapters are for my yet-to-be-fully-planned Taisan Porsche upgrade project... (58157+53166+?)

Lol - it's because you already have too much stuff! The postman knows... the postman knows...

More items arrived for our boat project:

Tamiya TS paint for the canopy, and a waterproof ESC and servo.

In the past I have used waterproof servos from Futaba, but since this HPI one is half the price, I thought I might give it a try. It isn't particularly torquey, but it is quick enough and should be fine for rudder duty.

Its that modern day D1ck Turpin who's to blame, otherwise known as matman
