that's not even including the servo unit yet 1400's can only go for 8 minutes max on my car haha! I have a 4200 and 3800, but funny the 3800 lasts longer... not to mention the 4200 is a matched cell pack, as in each cell's voltage is matched. I'm going to invest in a good 5ampere charger soon so that can get more kick out of my batts

Yes it will, but I'd rather a enjoy a short period than sulk for a long period got it second hand for RM70, but new it runs for around RM100. Intelec brand IIANM

my current one also is 2.5 and it cant give me serious juice, so thats also why i wanna get a better one

300-400 depending on brand. and for most of them you have to buy seperate transformer..

lol no la... like this

650 + 300 (basic remote and servo) + 200 (basic charger and 3300mAH standard battery buy together)

all this buy together RM1100 can get kua

wow, you actually went through sawing it yourself, salute you

seconded, Eric, you dont need a better charger either for starter's kit, I just want a better charger because I want more kick from it. besides, above 3amp charger will shorten the battery life drastically. FYI I'm selling my Ansmann 2.5amp charger, going for RM70

sorry, I just got my pay yesterday so that's when all the spending ideas come into mind

there are production drift tyres from Tamiya, and Yokomo for the matter and I believe they are the only ones with them but Tamiya's drift tyres aren't very drift friendly unless on even tiles. IIANM these are the only production drift tires available in the market today

TAMIYA TYPE-D - http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLVZ0&P=M

YOKOMO SINGLE RING - http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLTV0&P=M

YOKOMO DOUBLE RING & TYPE-D - http://www.yokomousa.com/tires/drift_tires.htm

Well, the Tamiya's are just hard and soft on each side, the Yoke single ring is basically 70% plastic ring in the middle and 15% rubber on each end. Double ring is same as single ring only with smaller rings, and type-D is same as Tamiya's type-D but better engineered.

probably got the wrong measurements bro, might wanna try some smaller pipes. or just get new cheap rims and pre cut ABS or PVC

eric, whats your budget?

wah, thats a very tight budget... RM700 would probably mean that everything is second hand, even battery and bodyshell.. I will ask around for you tomorrow

nvm, for now I'll keep asking first, most of the carkits on sale are atleast RM500 with electronics already.

alpha, just richen your engine, no other tuning needed. couple with abs and careful driving should be just nice

oops, then you can step it down a little la. I dont know too much about nitros so I cant help you much, sorry ya

eric, you can change it to the rubber sponge tyres to play normally (touring), and your budget seems ngam ngam for everything brand new, so whatcha waiting for?

dandan2, your car can drift, but there some things you need to do to the engine first, read up on sites for tips. we use ABS or PVC for tyres btw

sorry ah, very busy le these days, just started working and all tell you what, you can call Tamiya Underground at 0377290553 and ask them if they've got the stuffs available. yep, that should definetly be enough

good to see nitro drifters surfacing, the scene now too many EP drifters and I'm guessing only 30% have played nitro before..

actually it's not a Toycity but yes it's the on at B2 with the track at the side. then get some help for buying parts la, I'm sure some people are willing. heck if I'm going there also you can tumpang some parts and I courier it to you

shah alam lor, and I dont think so near lowyat got ler.. tomorrow I'll be playing at SS19 Subang

told you dont go toycity mar, the one you saw in IOI is the XB. need bearings, suspension and a better motor, and yes it will in the end be more expensive than the TT01D

I'm no genius but my thinking is you'll need the running air to cool the engine and in drifting you won't get that much air since it's going slow or sideways (you could cut a hole on each side of the shell I suppose)

TAMIYA UNDERGROUND

haha, sorry I wasn't shouting, just thought that I've told you it before and apparently you didn't notice so I make a new short-straight-to-the-point-keeping-it-simple message.

scared you miss it again ler

eric, I recommend the Futaba MJ, 200 something only NEW

aiyo bro, some more I got no credit you want me to SMS you how to fix the servo aparaaaa, so I guess now you got it all fixed already? very fast in assembling la you, I used to be the fastest coming in at 3 days but you ah.. damn!
