    definately had it on nimh, didn’t wanna get caught out with that one!:D
    i tried another, i got 6335ma into it! and that was doing it manually too.
    average discharge was about 500 ma.
    i ended up individually discharging them to .9v and charging at 1c. got 534ma in.
    i have a feeling my previous cheapy charger had alot to do with the state of my batts.:8ball:

    i think your best bet is to order from ausmicro. they’re guaranteed to work and i’m confident shipping will be cheaper than dinball:8ball:

    hiya menty!

    have a hunt back in the forums, i’m sure we’ve covered this one before in lotsa detail. basically for the rear axle you gotta yank them off by twisting and pulling.:8ball:

    coolness!:p sounds like an excellent beginning for a pretty decent racer! i’m thinking 4 cells, an iwaver pcb and something will need to be done about that “h plate” when it goes.

    so how’s the body? nice detail? precise painting?:8ball:

    sounds obvious but are you certain it’s the servo? check all the steering linkages to be sure. i’ve had one that i got second hand and i use it in my rs4 mt without a prob:8ball:
