Deleted a duplicate post that somehow happened...

EDIT: Redpixel, I found another seller with the correct springs, available in both 35mm and 40mm:

These are just spring steel, not stainless...but I just did a search for "0.8mm spring 13mm" and found several hits. Here's a set of stainless springs:

I'm looking for some info on this old buggy. Its made by a company called BlueBird and looks to be a clone of the kyosho's circuit 20 buggies.

Last post

The RC28 is good cheap fun, but there is a LOT of room for improvement on this rebranded Exceed buggy. For starters, the lack of a real front suspension. The buggy has arms with living hinges that allow some movement, but its way stiffer than the...

I've also been working on an aluminum chassis for the 1:28 scale cars. I made a quick prototype by hand, it's seems pretty feasible and I think looks great. The compoenets I designed for the gold pan version above would pretty much apply to this...

Has anyone done some kind of hop up on a Tamiya buggy? I'm specifically wondering about swapping out the ESC and putting in a bigger brushless setup.

I was thinking a fast Hot Shot might fun and a fast Sand Scorcher would be fun too.

Last post

no worries, i havent seen any reviews, but i have the pistol grip dx2s and the dx3 and both are good radios to use, lower end of the market, i dont use any gizmos when driving, just throttle, steer and brake sometimes

My friend and I finished building a few crawler courses at a shale pit on my parent's property. We're trying to get a few people to start a club and hold a few events this summer. If anyone is near the area, send me a PM for details. :wink:

I like the stuff on the roof of the Jeep! Lucky... You have an AWD Talon turbo wow! That is a cool car. At first I thought the Talon was a finely detailed RC car, until I saw the last pic of the engine. I was like dang that thing looks freakin'...

When I entered crawler in the search it returned 52 pages of posts mentioning crawler.
Maybe we could have a section for scalers, foff, desert bugs, rockracers and crawlers?

Last post

My first crawler build has come to the point it can be run.
This morning I took my daughter along and she ended up running the car for about half a pack.
In the evening I returned with a friend who just got his rtr axial this week.
I'm quite happy...

I was bored tonight, and decided that I'd paint an F150 Raptor body I got recently, and put it on one of my crawlers, since I didn't like the body that came with it.
I've never painted a body before, so I had no idea how long it would take, with...

That Ford truck body looks great, R Cane! I think it's pretty realistic, the black trim and fender flares are nice details. 8)

To get a low-gloss black finish, I just sprayed Pactra Outlaw Black on the outside of the Lexan (I did this Barracuda...

I know very little about the crawling scene but have always wanted a bruiser or hi lift in my collection. While really getting lost on ebay tonight I saw this, thought it was kinda cool looking (aside from the awful body but I'm sure a proline lid...
