After all these years it's time to revive this thread. Last night I bought my own!
It has the other body variant, similar to a losi xx.
So the big question, how does it drive?

it's here!

A slipper would be very welcome to join it and the servo saver needs improvement desperately. The suspension arms look dried out so they'll get cooked or I'll design new ones and get them printed.

Anyone with firsthand experience with a Hobby World (Jamara / HobbyLand / etc) Valiant II? It seems to have a few names, and sold through multiple distributors starting in 1993. Jamara in Europe, HobbyLand in US?

Seems to be a TRX-1 clone with an...

Spotted this as part of a Ultima pro rebuild in an auction site here in New Zealand.
Managed to convince the guy to seperate it and sell it to me.
Going into my JRX-Pro build, not that many vintage 20 plus year old Losi parts around in this country,...

I have a handful of yellow label and white label Losi Revolution motors. One yellow label and one white label motor does not have what I believe to be the correct original endbells, and it's difficult as all heck to find out exactly what endbells...

First post

Traxxas provides the silicon grease for the nylon gears but I was wondering what grease the delrin on aluminum likes and also how often should you open the gearbox to re grease? Should you fill the case with grease or just light on the gears or any...

Last post

It's always been my understanding that no grease is needed unless there are two or more metal gears. So the delrin/aluminum/nylon combo you're using doesn't need any. I tend to put just a tiny bit of ball diff lube on though. It's gonna happen...

Can anyone advise me on what pinion to start around with a sport tune motor.

23t i think.

Racing on a medium seize 10th scale track.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers.

Mark..

Here's the conversion formula, in case anyone is wondering.

D = Diametrical pitch (ie 32, 48 or 64 pitch)
M = Module (ie 0.8, 0.6, 0.4)

M = 25.4/D
or
D = 25.4/M
