I have a feeling hobao have stopped supporting it completely now.

Our UK distributor rarely has the parts in stock and even rc mart seems to be low on most parts for it now.

Pretty poor on hobao's part really as I was going to keep mine for a long time as it is as competitive as any other tc

Yeah, I too love this car.

This has happened to me pretty much every time I've purchased a car from one of the smaller companies, -they all discontinue and stop supporting the car. I am pretty much going to stick w/ big name manufacturers from here on out.

But, I plan to get at least 1 more racing season out of my H4.

Same. I've got plenty of spares to get me by and I rarely break anything anyway.

It's just frustrating as hobao are still producing their other lines so what's to stop them keep the moulds and a small supply of h4 parts to keep us going..

is it possible to put a gear diff in front of the car instead of having the Differential Spool in front?

Sure thing, the rear diff goes right in.

I ran the Gravity 2.5 million diff fluid and found the car turned better but lost acceleration in certain circumstances. I went back to the spool a long time ago.

Does anybody knows if the front double joint shaft (Part# 22248) are compatible with another Brand? I broke two in 2 days. This shafts are weak. I'll be thinking about other double joint shafts may be compatible? Tamiya, X ray?, to replace it and see if they are stronger? Thank you...

Is there still a market out there for resale? I've got a few rollers and a bunch of new parts that I've been trying to unload with no luck. Any feedback would be appreciated. Price points etc.
