Hey boys, I just bought a new drift car. Used to be into RC cars heaps.

Years ago like 15yrs ago had a Kyosho Ultima Pro...was a lot of fun.

Then i got a NEO Nitro road car. Stacked it pretty bad and never really fixed it.

So i thought i would just buy a cheap electric car and have a bit of fun. Its been nearly 10 yrs since i last had a bit of fun with these. Just running a Trueno shell.

OK....

I have seen some nice toys, im heading to Hobby Habbit on Daws Road, on Saturday if anyone is keen pop on in and have a play, around 1-ish.

I Would rather be @ the Schutzi Fest, but it out of the buget this week........

I will take some pics to inspire all you RC nerds to come out - and have some fun.:banana:

I have a 1/10 scale Nitro car for sale if someone wants it, been in storage for over a year, needs slight repair to front balljoint but already have the part just lost interest and never got around to fixing itm PM me if your keen. 911 shell

I got an electric one i picked up from a pawn broker about a year ago... went through a bit of water and killed the receiver, just ordered a new one.

I have no idea what it is, if someone knows their RC cars etc, please do let me know... its got Traxxas gear inside it with a traxxas remote but i cant find any info on it??

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
