ok i got it back with the help of a plier haha ... sometimes i lose control and wham! it flies into a drain .. haha but no biggie .. got it out and have more fun again hahaha .. i guess the only issue now is the battery. It runs out really fast ... probably finish in about 15-20mins. And takes 8 hours to charge .. man .. how am I going to have fun lol. Can you guys recommend me the cheapest available decent charger .. preferably can charge <3hrs. I don't mind 2nd hand. And I tink I should get another battery pack also. The 1 with the package is 1800mAh. What should i get and how much would it approximately be?

Another thing I would like to know would is ..

how to do a wheelie? I tried getting it up but can't get it to stay up for more than a sec.

Thanks alot guys. This is one of the best hobbies ever!

Try winnie.
Tell her what its going to be used for and your budget.
then she'll show you if she got any in your range.

Wheelie, try reversing then go into forwards, that should flip up the truck.

But to maintain a wheelie you need more power ie: better motor + batt...

cheers

agree, stronger motor (high speed, High torque) to do longer wheelie!!!

LOL it'll be flying instead haah .. even now with the stock motor i'm trying very hard to control it at full speed haha .. anyways i managed to do a longer wheelie .. i find that reversing in a direction then moving forward in the opposite direction make it very easy to execute a wheelie .. the difficult part is balancing it. It'll either drop forward or backwards haha ..
