Stop!!!.... Hammertime.

Just a quick funny for the RC boys.

Has anyone else noticed that when you look on eBay now.. youre no longer interested in anything to do with the subaru.

Its all got a bit silly

Just a funny observation




Breakitdown!!!

 

true. i'm spent out on the impreza but on the rc

took the old rc up to the multi story last night. bear in mind that the fuel i have is as old as the car so about 6 years, put fresh batteries in the handset and the holder for the servos, stuck the glo start on, primed the engine, and it fired on the 3rd pull. and it kept running!

was up there for about 40 mins blasting it round. it really does need setting up though as it's not as fast as it was. to be fair it's not been used for about 3 or 4 years.

i really should get some more fuel. the stuff i have at the moment is duraglow 10. any suggestions for what to get?

 

Depending on your engine id say a safe limit would be some 20%.

Id stay away from the model technics stuff as its really quite oilly and messy.

Personally after recomendation from John1UK ive been using Byron 25% race fuel. I quite like it and the car seems to perform quite well.

Although TBH mate in your position, any fresh fuel with a 20% nitromethane mix will be fine.

Duraglow 10... funk me thats old.. i even remember that stuff lol.

Bring it to a meet and I dont mind tuning it for you

 

Engine is just the standard one that came with the kit. Kit is a kyosho something or other

Yes i've always found the fuel i have very oily and messy. can clean the car up and within minutes it's covered in oil and any muck that it picks up.

Cheers I'll pick up some fresh fuel and bring it along to the next meet. last night it seemed fine until i'd been using it for about 20 mins. i started practicing some control and it started to get sluggish. never done that before. once i gave it a few blips to full throttle it was ok again. just blasted it round after that and it was fine.

 

Sounds like a combination of a slightly rich condition and crap fuel mate.. the oil loads them up too much really.

Up to which fuel you use, byt deffo some fresh stuff is a must.

Ah.. buy yourself a fresh glowplug too.

 

i'll grab some fuel at the weekend. where about's is heaths? i know it's southend way so not too far.

the glowplug is the original that i got with the engine. i was surprised that it was still working! so yup about time for a new one.

 

Im not the best person to expalin where heaths is mate is im not from that neck of the woods and i think its in a sh1te location for finding/parking etc.

PM John1uk or give the heaths guys a call...











im sure John will be there anyway

 

Easy to find and it has it's own carpark at the rear!

 

just had a quick nose on their site. i know where they are.

just been looking at this:

Schumacher Menace 70mph RTR

The Schumacher Menace is the fastest most exciting R/C Truck ever created. The enormous .21 (3.5cc) Pro Spec engine with CNC tuned pipe system is capable of propelling this 4WD Off-Roader to an incredible 70+mph! The unique 'E-Start' system eliminates the problems associated with dated pullstart systems, simply use a standard, cordless, torque drill for effortless, reliable starting. Available with a choice of 2 painted and cut bodyshells, 90% pre-assembled or RTR (Ready to Run).

 

Persoannly wouldnt ever buy a Schumacher car... the quality of their stuff is sh!te compared to others.

A friend of mine had a Menace... looked pre-historic build quality.

 

i think i'll have to pop out to the news agents at lunch and grab a couple of mags to get up to date on what's out there.

 

Cool

 

just looked at a jato 3.3 on ebay though. rtr and not a bad price.

 

There may be a few of these around very soon!

65mph+
Rear wheel drive

Traxxas recommend them for Very experienced users only (Category 5 - highest).

Could do some real damage with something travelling that fast!

Go for it!

 

it is tempting. although i wonder if i'd be better with 4wd. would make my old kyosho seem very slow!

 

found a combo deal on line £319. says everything to get it running. doesn't list radio gear though. would be nice to be able to use my old kyosho when i want rather than butchering it for the servos.

 

Why don't you wait a little while and see some of the other Jato's in action that are sure to appear very soon!

 

A new Jato should come with everything you need except a bettery for the starter and fuel!

They can be found for around £270 delivered.
