Newbie here - been into the hobby for a few months now (see website in my
.sig for my RC).

Thought i'd share the calamity that was our last outing with the RC's :)  We
were messing with our RC's in B&Q car park, K&N fell off my mates and
jammed the throttle servo open.  50mph+ - missed the front, £500, splitter
of my other mates 51 reg Corsa by inches, hit a decent plastic toolbox that
was FULL of little bits.

The RC was fine :)  Flipped into a hedge, was quicky cut out.  Spares/tools
EVERYWHERE - was pretty funny once we'd picked them all up :)

Best you'd get back into B&Q and get another one of those toolboxes
then...at least you were in the right place.
And is that the PC version of Sonic I see hidden away there LOL....!!!

The Protech? Where do you order your spares from?  Know of anywhere online
except www.gmmodels.co.uk ?  It wasn't actually my car that hit the toolbox
it was my mates Sinyth AX5 :)
