yeah i know.. im thinking of getting a wattage microflyer .. there 70 bux from the bloke in fairfield.. i mean that will do for fun.. im not srs about flying just wanna chase birds and stuff

[merc-blue]

kero how much does it cost to get a slowstick up and running i really wanna get one but am limited casue looks like a decent radio is super expensive

[merc-blue]

miniowned the frewer is a basic mini shell doesnt have all the fancy bits the montecarlo has its just a plain very bassic min and the would be really cheap over therew say 15ish pounds

[merc-blue]

minioned if u can track down the tamiya monte carlo body/body parts set best bet is probly http://www.tamiyaclub.com but remember tamiya shells are WEAK and one crash and they look MESSED up

[merc-blue]

ok.. well mini-g that depends cause there is a ta03 and a ta03R gear diff im runing the 03-r cause it lighter

[merc-blue]

nah the ta03 uses plates and has a race bearing (not sure is mantaray does)

[merc-blue]

TA03 ball diff is good tighten it up and it may aswell be a spool..

[merc-blue]

shit yeah that one was exceptionaly bad wasnt it.. i’ll edit it

[merc-blue]

there bassicaly more efficent that the dogbones and also when ur steering is “full lock” they dont pinch like the dogbones do so it allows u to acctually use full lock.. also gotta trim ur EPA down with alloy uprights or u can tear up ur servo gears then u steer past the max the knuckle will allow

ok guys no pics yet but this is what the beast has
Hollow carbon Gear Shafts
TA03 Ball Diff
Hardened Ball Diff Outdrives
Tamiya Mini Universal drive shafts
Stainless Steel suspension hinge pins
Front Ti turnbuckles
Tamiya TRF shocks
alloy front uprights
rear toe in uprights
antiroll bar kit
alloy motor mount
and probly others i forgot :S
of the lot the parts i recomend mostly are
antiroll bars
unis
bearings (a given)
ball diff
trf shocks (or mini CVAs if ur cheap)
rear toe in uprights
front aloy uprights
once u got that u got a good racer once u got more it just tweaks the car
but seriously anti roll bars are arwsome ina mini make it really easy to adjust suspention and help stop it rolling the alloy uprights wont bend like all the stock ones do the ball diff just well.. it make quite a difference in ur steering and same with unis .. (never have understeer again) the rear toe in will keep the “twitchy” car stable (the mo3L is extreamly stable with this) and the trf shocks cause there oh so smooth and easy to adjust
also running x pattern tyres (love em) and a cooper body (untill i can be bothered getting a bmw mini).. will edit and fix this up later with more indepth info

[merc-blue]

hey boys shold go down to that place in essedon and show some of them snobby 1:10 drivers that 1:28 is a force to be reconned with and also kick some mini-z ass

[merc-blue]

minioned there are many different nitro minis.. the best is probly the HPI mini pro the eletric version i also very good.. remember guys there are alot of 1:12 shells around becasue xray and yokomo make 1:12 tourers..
finaly later today (probly in lunch break im gonna post my m03 build up/hop up guide

[merc-blue]

yeah i know… i was getting across the point that i dont have anythign that works

[merc-blue]

rudder..

[merc-blue]

rc mart is back up

[merc-blue]

yeah arron RCMart is down ive been trying to get on all morning

[merc-blue]

yeah ive been told some are shonky some are great (poor quality control) but if u get a shonky one u can “hack” it to kill a good one.. or just hack a good one to be better

[merc-blue]

it looks like fun.. i might have to get one

[merc-blue]

mazda 6 is the most popular body for racing out there.. lol
as for 3600s.. not legal yet better off plying less for 3300s and maintaining ur punch.. 300mah isnt worth it specialy seeing there is useually modding required

[merc-blue]

dont think the binary is legal.
honestly NOTHING is faster the the EA trinity.. a mate of mine simon qualified 2nd at the nationals on one of them.. harris RC are great they supply good motors and batterys
if ya go the money, knowlage and skills the AE will not let u down but remember ur gonna need a comm lathe and stuff (good batts, charger, radio, tyre warmers?, etc) for stock racing

[merc-blue]

kev want the BEST stock motor localy cant go past the EA tuned trinitys.. can get them from harrisRC
