Whats the shipping like from Hobbythek in terms of $$? Do they still use Fed Ex?

 

[dc2 man]

nice one kwakr,i use hobbythek and find them great.

hope it goes ok for you,looking forward to seeing your build,the ht versions are nice all the essential key upgrades.

enjoy....

 

[Kwakr]

thanks dc2.....once i finally get off the night shifts..ill tackle it...think i might just run it stock forst..then throw in the upgraded parts as needed.....

Joe..shipping is $200...Dhl is who they use now i believe...didnt take very long....
Funny..even with exchange rate, duty and shipping, it still come out cheaper than stores around here

Now, i just need to find a pipe....was looking at the samba.....dunno which route to go though?!?

 

[Ducky]

Sweet matey, look forward to seeing some pictures of the Baja! Pipe wise there are a lot of choices....is noise a problem where you are?

 

[Kwakr]

Noise isnt really an issues....what do you suggest??

 

[mooman007uk]

I got mine from hobbythek this time last year and shipping was $180CAD...I think total for the HT and shipping was $1180CAD it's more now though cos of crap xchange rates.
get the jetpro pipe for marder/baja...definitely loud but goes real nice.

if you want this part for your FG,

I have one in stock locally(Toronto) I can sell you at cost. I bought it for my Comp FG Baja 4wd this week and found out it doesn't work with the 4wd version so its of no use to me. Its still NIP too.. PM me if interested.

best of luck with it now,cant wait to see what you think of it running??

have you ran it yet?
which engine have you in it?

very nice man,good car.

 

[Kwakr]

I have the G270 4-bolt in it....pico failsafe....
i just took it out for a quick test run....small little break in period...and i think i cooked the one brake servo!!!!!
Was using a hitec 645mg servo..wonder if i should go stronger......hmmmm

 

[dc2 man]

ahh crap,bit early to be cooking servos .

how did that happen?
i went stronger and got the ds thunder tiger high speed/torque servo it is very good,you can see it on my thread.

hiteks are good too though,amazing that cooked.....

 

[Kwakr]

i dunno how it cooked...i always set my end points and travel....maybe defective.....i must mail it in....see hwat happens...but now i get another....i had just a teaser run!!

man did you check your battery wasnt pluged in the wrong way????

check that you didnt do this,maybe you did and you didnt notice,it would immediatly fry your servo/servos/reciever/ depending on how long you left it plugged in the wrong way around...

 

[Kwakr]

Weird...but wouldnt that cook all of them?? Its just the one servo gone....the other two are working fine....

 

[dc2 man]

all depends if you pluged it in for a second and reliased you had it in wrong way and changed the right way around fast,all depends on how long you had it pluged in the wrong way if this was the case.

it does happen....

its the only thing i can think of that would cause this on a brand new machine,i would contact hobbythek anyway and get them to replace it asap!
