Re: Traxxas nitro buggy alternative body

I did this to my Bandit:

Maybe you can do something similar, it is a nice and roomy body :) It is a shell from Kamtec.

Re: Race Modified; Mardave Meteor Project

I miss buggies like this, all new models are so complex! I like the idea of a super basic club racer, sure you give up performance but make it up with easy maintenance.

Come on Mardave, re-release the Cobra :) The club scene needs it.

Re: Alternative body for Bandit idea. Thoughts request...

Thanks for the inspiration, that's very cool!

I'm planning to race the Bandit like I did a couple of years ago, only for fun :) Best I've ever managed is a 3rd place trophy and I'm so out of practise that I'm not worried about doing well. Just driving :D

Re: Alternative body for Bandit idea. Thoughts request...

I don't want to mess around with the suspension too much, it drives well as it is. Shocks are like this right now.

Re: Alternative body for Bandit idea. Thoughts request...

I'm about to try this :) Ordered the body after a couple of years of thinking about it ;) So yeah, here it goes... As the parts arrive I'll work on this and post the results. The aim is to have a very low version of a Sand Scorcher with the paint scheme to match, I'll do this to my Bandit rather tha...

Re: TRX-B (poor mans TRX3) and SRT-R (you guessed it!)

This is really cool! I hope it becomes a bit of a trend :) And FWIW, I don't think there's much wrong with "just a damn Bandit" :D It is amazing it has been sold for so very long! I'm about to start racing again and not with my Losi 22... looking to sell that, going to start again with my ...

Re: rustler vxl differential

The issue is potentially something else, like for example more resistance on one wheel than the other due to broken bearings or something is catching like a pin that's backing out. If you want a better diff that gives you some limited slip action, you could try the sealed Hot Racing diff case, I use...

Re: Race Rustler build

Reading this with interest :) I did a similar thing with a Bandit, and after a lot of work, time, and money it ended up LOTS better than it started. Be warned though, I recently bought a Losi 22 and after a little work it already is WAY better than the Bandit ever was on grippy surfaces. The bandit ...

Re: TL-01 rebuild

Nice to see someone paying the TL01 some attention, I have two of them neither of which runs right now :(

One needs a new set of gears and shocks, the other one a chassis. Mix'em both and I could have a running TL01 :)

Re: New project, think it's a TRX3???

I have a Mardave Cobra that I got very cheap, so maybe I will keep that for bashing! Double lucky man! Another car I've always wanted from when they were new, I still remember the understated boxes they came in. Next you will tell me that you have Tamiya Dyna Storm ;) Anyway, sorry to deviate from ...

Re: Street Devil

The Street Devil is such a beautiful car. The world of RC needs more hot rods, lovely looking RC you have there :) Sounds crazy, but I'd love to race something like it :D
