ride height guage and droop guages also very handy
dont tell us to wait for rcmod to put it up casue they wont have there site 100% for another 2 years.. is what im saying
and dont say u sent it to the rcmod guys casue there useless nad will be another 5 years b4 they get there site running
panda i would say the ESC limit.. the venoms are a load of crap jaguars are pretty good
lol that sounds like fin in the middle of a lecture.. “stand up” lol
nothing.. just dont expect some of aussies better 1:10 drivers to sign up to a mainly 1:28 forum
woah defmondo on ausmicro … wats next shurikarn.. hara.. masami? lol
yeah but it helps.. the other trick i have picked up is do teh top of your wheel wells with some ofcuts of polycarb and some shoo goo which would help strengthen them.. and any were where a body shell normally cracks
yeah..i think modding of the stock motor rewind down + neo mags and a water cooled system.. no problem
yeah.. pity the motors arent a canned motor.. but still i wonder wat IW will do about this.. im surely up for one if can score one at a decent price
they look sick drop a Pd in one of them nelly it up and WHOO yeah
yeah thats the way.. once ur all done.. i would suggest leaving the window masks on and doing a thick coat (via many thin coats) of white to protect ur paint from wheel rubbing or internal scraches
yes it probly would
templstowe.. i got a Xray T1r with all teh Cf and oneways and stuff so its pretty much a FK.. the new one isnt up to speed compared to 415 TC4 pro4 Mi2 and it isnt a twist on a old design like all the 415 corraly new HPI/hotbodies.. all have similar layout but have all there own twists.. the only good thing about the xray is adjustable diffs in car thats it and im sure u could transplant one into another car
mini g moulded stuff conducts more.. and i found my graphite Ta04 wasnt as good as teh CF in my evo 3 or t1.. any way.. back to the subject of the alpha .. chassis is a personal prefrence thing.. this is 100% the last xray i will drive.. next car is the new losi or new hotbodies (HPI) car. i have heard about some shift stuff in that new xray.. the new HPI is 99% likly to be the next top car (better than 415) unless tamiya brings out the fabled 416 (rumors aoubt its design) then we might have a battle but as it looks teh new car with hara and shurikarn testing should be sweet..
cabron fiber is carbon fibre plates woven hence teh purdy paten.. graphite is moulted graphite. its different. the molded stuff conducts electricity and tends to shatter
nah the proto type tc3 didnt have a 3 peice and it was arite they brought in a 3 peice to make it easy and then ive heard of the females cracking.. what eletronics etc do ya have ??
oh ok.. hmmm.. no chassis pics normaly in adverage condition.. but still for under 100 bux who cares..
TC3.. just they have torque steer issues depending on ur motor choice also spur gears strip on ur motor gearing and race style.. if ya one of them fast in fast out.. with a front one wya or spindle ur gonna tear up front bevel gears.. they tryed to do a 3 peice shaft but never heard ne thing good about it.
tc3 or 4 is a good beginners car but graphite is useually bad news with electricity and also shatters doesnt flex.. CF is stiff but flexes abit. just not a fan of teh car.. but i have a VERY agressive race style.. eg who cares about teh car/motor aslong as it last the race and does it quicklyahh so mini-g ur a racer.. i would suggest not getting the old FK its fast but ur getting bottle feed a car.. the new HPI looks TEH BOMB.. the 415 is a sweet car.. the sprint was bought as a attempt to get a reliable car after driving a evo3 (which was sweet but decided i hate shafties) the TC3 when running hott just doesnt seem the car it was rated to be (i drove someone elses).. if ya looking at a cheap belt the old FKs go cheap.. the 415 is expensive… when i get home tonight ill edit this post and expand
hmmm im tempted to get a xmod and drop in a mamba BL.. u recon the drivetrain is up to it pht.. with them kick ass foams and some alloy in there?
yeah.. AHH TC3.. one of the worst cars i have driven. can some body say torque steer.. or whoope i hit a bump there goes my spur.. needs a fair amount of $$ in a TC3 to kick ass. want a shaftie get teh evo4/pro 4 or make u life easy and wait for the pro 5 (belt).. gonna be a kickass car.. gonnna win the worlds.. mini g check out my sprint if ya want a beltie…
hmmm sounds to good to be true.. if ya get the idea.. maybe sumthing wrong.. oh well at 50 bux who cares
there are also a touring version of this car (which were not so good.. still arite) also mini-g were did u find out shafties are better.. a shaft car is CRAP for a beginner stripped spur gears and what no make there “lower maintanace” drivetrain more maintainace… unless you know how to shim out the diffs in a shaftie, a belt it ALOT more reliable.. and the belts dont snap and what not as people say they do.. i have had 2 shafties both were adverage compared to my belts
hey ph2t can i chuck my 1:10 on one of them speed checkers? .. i wonder if they get into 200 lol
yeah.. is it RTR or rolling chassis?
