    New to 1/5 RC Cars

    One guy in finland makes them. I heard that mold is broken so it might at least take some time to get one. And you need longer chassis.

    not running a killswitch heres what can happen

    When you get first runaway, that is so scary moment that you will have killswitch before next run. My battery broke and me running after WOT raging car in local park was horrible experience. That youtube video reminded me about my own onroad car. I took too much risk highhigh speed bend and I...

    T2000 Anyone?!?

    I see good and bad things about t2000. belt could work in grass butt with gravel its going to be PAIN.... also cant understand double shocks. Second pair is just for looks. Baja size single shocks can handle weight for sure. And good thing is that KM is making their own desings so hpi...

    Not rolling backwards freely

    I think worst parts on KM are bad bolts and nuts made of tin. Usually if I take KM bolt out it goes instantly to trash can. I think their size is between metric and inch or..... something used in china. good car, 90% good assembled, 10% badly assembled and with 100% soft&cheapoasitcanbe bolts...

    Predictions please

    I think nitro will disappear because they are hard to live with etc etc. Main reason people bought them was that nitro had more hobby than toy feeling and ofcourse real engine noise. Largescale will take nitros place as A rc with noise smell and real feeling. Electric is real winner, atleast if...

    Bargain

    Its just matter of expections.... Any powertool costing less than half price of "real mccoy" cant be just as good as real one. I have bought quality tools and cheapo tools. Usually I am disapointed when expensive tools aint lasting from century to century. Cheapos doesn't last to next year but I...

    radio probs

    I had similar problem. Actually it leaded runaway..... I had faulty battery. It ran few mins ok and always started cutting just likethat. New battery with good charger (with deltapeak) is always good thing. Actually I think cheap rtr wallchargers will destroy accu sooner or later. Personally I...

    engine problem

    New fuel lines didnt help but problem is now solved. Took motor from my onroad and put new 29cc cy cylinder and voila!! problem solved. Actually clutch,cyl and flywheel were pretty much done so I bought new 27cc cy to onroad. I might need bit taller gearing or even 2 speed to match revs to...

    can`t decide

    FG desing is simple and easy to maintain. But FG desing lookslike it has just put together without thinking handling. Actually my neighbour first saw my carson attack (marder clone) he said "oh cool, did you make it yourself..." maybe 4wd would be only thing to make buy fg (or similar) and then...

    engine problem

    Topend is basic 29cc 36mm cy. It sounds like lack of fuel but I am not sure anymore. Oilseals might be problem but there isnt any clearence on bearings. It might be related to heating because letting engine cool 5 mins gives 1 or 2 WOTs maybe bit better than before. Whatever is causing problem i...

    Marder upgrades.....

    You said your car is like new, reliable and stock. If you sacrifice stock (I mean power) you will sacrifice like new and reliable. But for example with pipe your buggy awakes rest of sleeping stock horses. Power is fun, power is expensive and with power you find yourself spending much more time...

    add another DX450 owner

    I needed brushless setup for rustler, new member of my rc family. So logical place to get it fast was from anderson bike. 4000kv with 3s moves rustler like hell. So I needed new brushless setup for bike. And there is no sense to buy similar or weaker motor. And I ordered ezrun 6000kv. Boy that...

    Whats wrong with me

    Now with new wheels...... next driving session and basegasket leak. Actually that gasket which came with topend kit felt really crap when installing it. After taking of cylinder it looked like there was just "teflon" covering, just bits of actual gasket. Now gasket replaced with diy made from...

    Whats wrong with me

    Yeap 100% sure it was tight... tight as hell when opened it. And I believe if bolt is loose wheel will drop before rounding. Otherside looks worn too same. I looked rim last night and it looked pretty worn. I believe that great gripping hostiles aint very soft to drivetrain. There is always...

    Whats wrong with me

    And again.... This time with new dogbones. Half tank later wheel center rounded and heated hub so I burned my fingers as well. They were maybe 5-10 liters old genuine hpi products and otherside seems pretty torn also. I am not so sure about hpi quality anymore. Suggestions about stronger wheels.
