    Newbie question

    Also blue loctite all the screws that are screwed into metal. Failure to do so will allow them to loosen up prematurely

    Sold / Found Lookin for some axial swag....

    Howdy guys n gals. I was out in the garage and goin thru some stuff I'm either never gonna build or was an impulse buy that I never use. All RCNT and PP rules apply. Prices include shipping. 1) HPI RS4 Evo 3. Pretty well stock with a newer f150 body. I believe it has the .12SS engine. Put on a...

    Recommendations for an 8 yr. old

    Actually you guys all have a very good point. I based my assumptions on 1/10 and didn't even think about minis. ECX could be a good way to go

    Recommendations for an 8 yr. old

    Welcome to the site Ralph. I think you will find it very difficult for anyone to give you a good entry level vehicle for $100. Most rtr (ready to run) will cost you in the neighborhood of $300 just for the vehicle. When you factor in batteries, charger and a couple of odds and ends I would feel...

    Looking for winter project

    The 8ight was considered the top buggy/truggy when I got back into rc about 7ish years ago. I owned a v1 buggy and a v2 truggy that were solid performers on and off the track. I bought them used so I never had a chance to do the build but the product support was outstanding (back then) and the...

    Looking for winter project

    Team Associated makes some great kits. Look onto their 8th scale buggy. Fit and finish is solid from my experience and the directions are top notch too. Truggy wise all I've ever dealt with was the 8ight. Nice druggy but I suppose a bit outdated at this point. I'm not even sure they have any new...

    Something weird with servo?

    I'm still in the early stages but I purchased the Heyok BEC for a MOG I'm working on and it was pretty convenient that its literally plug and play. Still tuning the electronics and getting the bugs worke out but I do like it. I have a NIP Castle BEC I can let go if you decide to go that route...

    Axial JK Rubicon Build

    How do you like Al's stuff? I just bought his 3channel winch controller and no brainer BEC for a build. First time I'll be trying it out.

    Hulks TF2!

    How much higher does the lift make the truck? I would think worse case is you may have to fab up some mounting tabs for the bumper.

    Problem with Nitro RC

    There is a "sticky" at the top of the nitro thread that will help you get a better tune for the car. Congrats on breaking your cherry on doing your own work to install the part. If you truly get addicted soon enough you will be making your own cars!!

    Hulks TF2!

    Like the "marbled" type look you have going on with the cab. Also like the "new" bed. They were the first thing to rot out on these things back in the day on the 1:1. To the best of my knowledge the stingers from RC4WD are all interchangeable on RC4WD products. When you want to use em on a SCX...

    Dual Exhaust

    For just a few more $ you can go with an ERCM pipe. Everything I've seen says they would be the pipe to run for power and speed.

    Problem with Nitro RC

    I do it all the time as well. If you have a good tune going and your temps are not high run 2,3,4 tanks till you shut it down although I typically break something by the time I get to a 3rd or 4th tank. Glad you got it figured out. Did you do the work yourself?

    Problem with Nitro RC

    The age of the OWB doesn't have nearly as much bearing as the amount of fuel it has seen. The engine would have to be removed in order to remove it and properly clean it. Back in the day with the original .15 Tmaxx you used to be able to drill a hole in the EZ start case and just squirt some...

    Interco TSL SX Super Swamper 2.8"

    You wont find anything for a 2.8" beadlock to my knowledge. The only one I know of is the Mad Torque from Exceed has 2.8 beadlocks and IMO theres nothing scale about the appearance at all and I believe they are 100% plastic. You may have to glue my friend..

    Veterans, thank you!

    Its much appreciated from the likes of me and my family. Without the veterans we wouldn't be able to enjoy the simple things in life like this addiction or even our own families in comfort. Thank you all!!
