Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / November 2005

Radio Shack here in the US has just stocked GP 3300 stick pack cells on
their shelves and on their website. Selling for 25 bucks each.
They come with a Tamiya connector, are not matched cells, but some
people I know who have run them say they are pretty darn good packs.

Anybody know of any groups specifically tailored to the Kyosho mini-z's. I
just discovered these things and I can't believe how much fun they are.

Anyone seen them fitted to a Sav?  I hear they have no offset and as such
foul on the shocks - anyone know if this is true?  Apparantly fitting Revo
wheels to the Sav gives the same problem.
Anyone?

I want to spend around a hundred bucks, but maybe a bit more for a good
charger that will charge 2  (6 or 7 cell) packs. I was ready to get the
"ice" but it only handles 1 pack at a time. I really like all the features
of the ice but don't want to buy 2 of them.

What trade publications do RC companies and hobby retailers read
regularly?

I want to build my son a big CAT Mining truck.  It will be 5' long,
2' high and have 10" wheels.  I think it would be cool if I could
make it a remote control truck.  Is it possible to get RC components
that could control it?  I don't want it to go fast, and would like to

Curious what is the correct pullstart from HPI that will crossover to an
Ofna Force .28?
Would I need the regular pullstart (.21BB) like for a Savage .25 or the
newer style like that would fit the 4.6?

Just entered the world of micros after racing only 10th scale electrics.  Am interested in both of these models and was wondering if someone could recommend  REQUIRED hop-ups that also don't break the bank... - especially for the RS4.
Thanks in advance.

Anyone know where i may find one?

Hi all, I'm having too much fun with the new spool in the back of my E-maxx.
So much fun in fact that I want to do it to my Savage :)   <big evil grin>
Then I'd like to put some sort of highly limited (but not totally) slip diff
in the front of both trucks.  Ages ago I saw a Torsen ...

Hey all,
    I was offered a 1/10 Kyosho Nissan 300ZX brand new Built but I have no
clue how much it's worth or when it was made. Any one out there have a
clue where to look? I already checked ebay.

Well that's quite a fan base you have up there Dic but the fact stil
remains you backed down from a race I understand on a bulliten boar
you invincible but I'd say that my 6 year old daughter coudl beat yo
on a dirt track probably because you race like a P&%*y but I understan
