Hi,

It's a bit like pot luck from Tower using the standard USPS shipping. Generally the smaller the package, the faster it gets here. The best I've had was 5 days; most things seem to take 2-3 weeks. So good luck ordering a new A arm and expect it by the next meet (get a good LHS as a backup!) Maybe a US East Coast supplier like LPH is faster?

Cheers

Steve, good move on the B4, you'll love it. It'll be a shame to see the Super Hornet not on the track though

Twisty, now why would he sell his BJ4, the best 4WD on the market?! I tell you what, I reckon last meet it could have been the worst 4WD on our track. I managed a full face-forward 360 roll off the main jump before it even touched down. In slo-mo it would have looked unreal. It normal-mo, it was not too good.

Hate to admit it, but the XX4 is looking like THE car for our track.....or is that just the MH factor making it look easy?

Pretty sure the checkpoint is just a Duratrax ICE in red and with a higher price tag. I have one the Duratrax models on the way I have only heard good things.

Its a clone but it has backlight built in so there is no need to void warranty and also has a higher discharge which is pointless if I got lipo, Ive settled with the Orion Avionics, 80 bucks is hard to beat with the features its got.

Has a few other features over the ICE charger, but nearly the same thing.

No way champ.... There is only enough room in this world for one Fuhrer... My R/C stable is bleak without a 4wd. There are to many 4wd's on the market atm for me to make a decision on which one to add to the TT house of R/C..
