Wow, she cleaned up real good!

Hi folks. Recently been itching to get a 1/8 scale 4x4 buggy for a backyard basher (we also have a motocross track we take our r/c's to at the local fairgrounds). There's no competitive racing near by so I don't do any racing. I recently purchased a...

Just picked up one of these and everything is there except the manual. Does anyone have a copy they could scan and upload here? Always wanted one of these to tinker with but never could find one till now.

I was at my LHS recently and saw this thing sitting on the shelf with some other Tamiya mini 4WD and science kits, so I had to buy it for $8. I carefully cut open the plastic seal on the bottom so I could open it. I still have my mini 4wd track and...

Last post

The inside art reminds me of the Marui Wheelie Jeep (CJ7?), and the box art reminds me of the Rockbuster or Cyclone or any other Grasshopper clone. Like others have said, for $8 it would not have been on the shelf when I left either. :wink:

I've seen it mentioned that the drivetrain of the Aristocraft Dolphin is compatible with the Samurai. Since I am currently rebuilding a Samurai and needed a few things I ordered a Dolphin gear set and front diff.

I'll keep the Dolphin parts on the...

Last post

The design of the whole Dolphin leans very heavily on the Samurai , the modular layout of components is the same , even the mounting of the bumper is the same design , the rear gearbox (disregarding quality control) may actually be better ?
I think...

Are Savox servos really worth the 2-3X price difference over a comparable Hitec?

Reason for asking is I was looking at a metal gear Hitec, and a MG Savox. The Hitec's specs outperformed the Savox by a sizable margin in all areas, like torque, and...

Application dictates requirements and in some cases warrants the extra expense. For running in the yard, I went with an old HITEC HS-425BB. These have been around forever, are cost effective, low draw, and have plenty of speed and torque for my...

This is the build thread for my Kangaroo. I first learned of this model a few months ago. Seeing as how I'm mainly into vintage R/C's that are rare, uncommon, unpopular, obscure, etc... I instantly fell in love with it. I ended up buying one a...

Hey lowgear did I send you a bunch of kangaroo stuff back then? I probably did,. Not sure anyone else would have been chasing parts for this one. Crazy it's been that long

Wow, once you mentioned it, it caused me to remember that you did! :shock:...

First post

In the late 2000s I bought a Hitec Eclipse Pro Car 3-channel programmable FM transmitter to run all of my faster RC cars (well, the ones that actually saw a track... :lol: ). Now I would like to convert it to 2.4 GHz by swapping the module.

The spectrum modules being discontinued is a pain, I want to cannibalise one to convert a Futaba Magnum to 2.4 so I can use spectrum receivers.
