Hi Tonafio,

We have a purpose built track just for your hobby....do not worry about tearing up the ground, no problem on that.

The only time we do not open the track is when it rains (after the rain, it remains closed), that is to prevent damage to the ground as the earth is loose after rain.

We are sure you will enjoy bashing at Turf Hope to see you soon.

Cheers

Well Its kinda decent for its price. Thought after sometime my idle needle tends to be loose now. So it tends to lean out while playing. And its not the glow plug its the warmer that i need to buy new 1 first. Ha ha I think my warmer batts died already

My nitrocrap engine is dead. Got a OS 30VG yday. Did u change to the alum 3piece clutch? I'm afraid the torque frm aftermarket engines will chew the stock clutch shoes.

Default os 30

sidewayz.im using the os 30 too.i use aluminium as original clutches burn off fast.be sure to break engine properly.the sleeve wears down quick as per my experience.the sts 30 i got for my nito spyder seems to be more lasting.Also get spare engine bearings(Nova ones r good)the original wears fast --my 2 cents worth.

Hi Kaine, tks for the info. Will get the alum clutch shoes. The STS is more reliable? Does the STS 30 come with pull start?

tks!

Oh I feel the pain. I use the stock cluth and shoe only change the spur gear to the heavy duty 1. That seems to be enough for me the engine kinda chews thrpugh the plastic 1 easily. I learnt to put a return spring at the trottle control so its pushes the trottle to nutrel when out of range of tx
