I was wounding what you guys are running for tires .
I am curretly running proline excavators baja rears all the way around with addaptors but was thinking of trying something else.
was leaning towards putting 2 baja fronts since they are skinnier.
or should I keep the fat tire all the way around??

from the looks of what I have read around the other forums is that the proline trenchers and hostile mx/mxt hard seem to be the ticket .

Well I have a update on my tire selection I did pick up some proline trenchers for the hpi style 2 rears an 2 fronts these fit an clear awesome an are a little taller than the excavators rears I had on all 4 corners.I have also put a set on my baja an these things work vary well in 2wd .I will have to wait for a new engine to try on the FS..soon ..they do clear vary well an look awesome with the fshopups body.

much better!!
how do you like the lipo charger you are using?
every time i look at that body i cringe, so much time went into that carbon fiber insert into the front, we swore never to do it again, so you have a once off Fshopups body, consider yourself special lol ;D

I love the charger[triton eq about $125usd],it's been a good one .but only goes up to 5000 mah on the lipos/life ect. but so far it is all I need.
All I can say about the body is that everyone loves the way it looks ,you guys pulled it off.I need some decals so passer by's will know who made it.lol hint hint ;D
I need another 5th scale so I can get you make me another one off.. ;D ;D I am thinking a buggy..

yea we thinking of putting up one site just for bodies and then make stickers for that name.. we will see, TBH we dont wanna advertise as its very busy and would not like to dissapoint people by having long waiting times. also our bodies are different as we blend with kevlar and insert real CF, not as easy as it sounds. The technique used is derived from the F1 racing sector |

The technique used is derived from the F1 racing sector I think your going in the right direction with that name change.. I think if people know up front that it's custom then it should not be a problem if you keep them in the loop if it's more than a couple of weeks..For me if you just send a email saying you havent forgot me I am good..you know.. ;D After looking at my body I know I would never been able to do it ..hell even fix it will be a challange but I will learn if it ever needs it..then I'll have too paint it.. |
