Default Bank holiday Monday..... RC CAR THRASH!!!

Right chaps,

Myself and a few others are gonna go out with the cars at some point tomorrow.
Now please be aware that due to the weather this is on a "Play by ear" basis.

If the weathers cr@p then i certainly wont be going out.

I'll post times and locations at about 7.30am tomorrow. But expect it to be around the Basildon area if its am and possibly elsewhere if its more like pm.

Whos up for it?

1. Frayz - 3.3 Jato
2. Dazza - Everything bar the kitchen sink
3. Wilf 01
4.
5.

Make sure you check the thread early in the morning. As times are all subject to change.

PLEASE BRING SPARE CRYSTALS TOO

Rainfall totals of 15 to 30 mm are likely in some spots.

If it does bringen up or at lest dry out.. anyone fancy a jolly out this way. If it really dries we have a few grass fields around.

If we wanna run or tarmac we can always run in a carpark or up bradwell somewhere.

well, if we are going to use a carpark, after 4pm would be best, as people will be all over the shops today.

else we might get lucky and it dries out.

i've got my v-one-s parts now, so could even have a nitro drifter later today.

tiny, i'll pick up the spare shell for you as well.

off to get the hex drivers out now!!!!!

ps: my gs storm servos are running really slow... any ideas???

might have to change them!!! futaba s3003's)

Slow servos normally mean low battery voltage mate.. check the connections and try another receiver pack.
