it must have cost them a fortune to sterilise all that dirt!

coolness! 24 hours into the new site and we got us a good ol fashioned aussie blue goin down!you 2, wizz fizz spoons and spit at 20 paces at dawn!

it’s probably because i’m on dialup but i’m not getting the amazing load times you guys are. still, it’s mostly better than before.

[betty.k]

well i must be a walking question mark then!

[betty.k]

i wouldn’t get too excited about them, they’re 1:28 and non propo. they’re kinda like mildly tuneable palm runners.

[betty.k]

i think it looks pretty slick! well done!

[betty.k]

coolness! there”s all sorts of new stuff to look at!

oh and thanks for keeping my ball!

hi there, welcome aboard!
there’s a bit of a crew that meetup in sydney, this thread is the most recent:
http://www.ausmicro.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2588&FORUM_ID=1&CAT_ID=1&Topic_Title=Sunday+Races%2E%2E%2E%2E%2E%2E%2E%2ESydney+GTG%21%21%21%21&Forum_Title=GENERAL+CHAT:8ball:

i will be!! i’m definately bringing 2 xmods. probably won’t bother with anything larger.
maybe i’ll bring a couple of bcg’s!:D:8ball:

[betty.k]

rcmart have just stocked up, although a full set of oil shocks is us$50+!! BEFORE shipping!:dead::8ball:

[betty.k]

funny thing is, all these techno dinosaurs we have still go strong, never crashed. if i sneeze near a modern pc it needs a reboot!:8ball:

[betty.k]

looks like the next big thing is servo robots. i’ll bet they costa fair bit, lotsa electronic gizmos in them!:8ball:

[betty.k]

i use an apple IIe monitor with my wireless cam!:D AND i remember when mum used to bring home the data reels from work. along with the punch cards!:8ball:

[betty.k]

remember the commodore 64 tape drive?:D:8ball:

[betty.k]

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:

[betty.k]

strange, these are my newest batteries.

so what batteries do people find the most reliable? i would have thought sanyo’s would be good but now i’m confused. and what mah rating seems to be the safest?:8ball:

[betty.k]

crikey! this is an oldie, good value but:8ball:

cj over at pimp city is getting some in
http://www.cjshobbies.net/phpBB2/
i’m sure it’s only a matter of time before they’re in rcmart.

once i get these babies installed i’ll be able to run with 1:10’s without a care in the world! in fact they would be wise to keep outta MY way!:D:8ball:

[betty.k]

funny you should mention that:smiley2: already got 2 sets awaiting arrival at my distributor!:p:8ball:

[betty.k]

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:

[betty.k]

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:

[betty.k]

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:

[betty.k]

definately gonna try! i missed the first one, sounds like it was fun. crikey, i better get some skillz under me belt!:p:8ball:
