Is the diff starting to come apart internally?Originally Posted by bmwrp8
Mine used to do this when one side of the marauder diff locked up! Can also happen if you've got crap on one drive tyre that causes a difference in traction between sides of the car. - these had foam/rubber glued tyres didnt they? You got a tyre spinning on the rim?
I say used to, gave it away to a cousin's kid in the end cos I just found I didnt have the time to play with this kit any more - shame really, used to love the 2 stroke scream and a semi-guided missile going past
I am into trucks and planes.
Have only 1 Nitro "supercharged" powered aerobatic plane, the rest are 1/4 and above the size of the real ones, powered by 7 hp 50cc gasoline engines with auto advance electronic ignition

Hmm, I always did like the tmaxx, just when I could eventually afford it - I no longer had time to play with it!Originally Posted by Turbo Ready
I used to have a Tamia (sp?) Mini Cooper that was a fwd electric R/C car - fitted it out with a stock 11 wound motor and the sheer speed it could build up was incredible - used to outrun most of my nitro kit.
Battery tech has moved on considerably these days too, so I bet you get decent run times out of them now
I have a Kyosho V-One S. Never really got into it though. It was always a pain in the ass to start. It now resides in a closet at my parent's house 500 miles away.
My T-MAXX is actually Nitro and yes batteries cam a longggggggggggggg way within the last decade.Originally Posted by Ferret
My truck has a complete racing setup, stock out of the box it does 45 MPH now probably 52 MPH with the bigger racing engine which revs to 25,000 RPM with the two speed auto tranny. We also made a snow mobile conversion kit for them.
I am actually getting rid of mine, I have no time for it, you can see ad here.
