I know wht you mean Dan, Mine runs smooth as silk and quiet to boot, the only time i get a bit of belt jump is when i hit full brakes from top end.

I've never run reverse as its not the done thing to reverse into the path of an F1 who's lapping you for the 3rd time.

DanB4 13-11-2009 11:45 PM

and there's nothing more annoying than running like a madman to marshall a car only for it to reverse then shoot off on it's merry way just as you reach it in the middle of the track....I'm sure we've all experienced it!

I had reverse ages ago but it was on a 2 belt car - the Losi XXX-S/XXX-4 single belt design is very innovative but as said previously is designed so the belt is under tension when going forwards - in reverse it gets slack and the tensioning pulley spits the dummy.

jim76 14-11-2009 12:24 AM

Oh dear... You were being serious.

I have lost faith in mankind.

DanB4 14-11-2009 07:52 AM

Those are my pics taken on my bed with my servo installed!

Maybe I should buy it back?? How does £856.79 sound Stampy? Fair offer? :o

How much is it worth guys? I know how much I sold it for anyway!

Talk about perseverence.......or not! He didn't even try it! The motor installation must have been too much to handle perhaps.

jhammond 14-11-2009 08:01 AM

They're your photographs!

The cheek. I presume he doesn't actually have your servo? And one can probably conclude that it's probably wrecked now.

I bet he's asked people to contact him via PM so that he can actually ask for silly money! Again; criminal. And to think he'll probably now litter the Losi section of the forum proclaiming his advice is correct and creditable.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

Julius.

Indeed they are my photographs taken on the bed I am lying in right now with my 6 week old baby lying on my chest (great feeling)! I am on my iPod touch and it sometimes changes my words so apologies for any confusion!

The servo is in my cupboard so no it wouldn't come with that servo I can promise you.

I wonder what it does look like now? Wonder if the teeth on the spur still look like that?!

Oh well maybe he doesn't have/know what a camera is or how to upload pics?? Just to make people aware that the car may well not look like that now!

He paid £95 posted, I was quite satisfied with that figure, it also went out with a ton of spares

Nige 14-11-2009 09:23 AM

I can see this becoming yet another Stampy locked thread.....

Aren't you just pulling our chain, come on you've only had it for minutes. People have offered to help if you take it to a club, now you're just giving lots of people ammunition against you if you're being serious about selling it. You don't like the abuse, so why antagonise people. Surely you must have learnt by now!

:wtf:

Col 14-11-2009 10:27 AM

I've pm'd an offer...

I'll learn from my mistakes with this one, it was a good car and shame it hasn't gone to a good home. In his defence, at least I received the money!

mambamax 14-11-2009 11:41 AM

So why did you buy it in the first place?

I've changed cars ONCE this year from a B4 to a XXCR

Cat SX was an extra addition for 4WD.

:eh?:

Go and buy a Mardave - can't go wrong with those. Different class I know..

All the best racing it, I sent you numerous pictures before you bought it so it's strange that you now think it's ugly....never mind, I can't figure you out to be honest, one of life's mystery's!:lol:

I am going out for lunch, go and race the car and enjoy your hobby.

Give us strength!

We have someone like this at out club up in Scotland, another 'special' racer.....I'll always remember when he was smoking (tobacco or some other substance) whilst he was marshalling for the A final at a big meeting and then when he raced, Andy Moore was marshalling where he crashed and he shouted "Come on marshall for f's sake wake up!".......I nearly wet myself.....all the A finalists have nicknames for him, he is now quite legendary!

Maybe they're brothers? :cry:

Bye!

You're a total waste of bandwidth space and time...you're known to toss away your cars in a real quick fashion...so what shall we call you? A Tosser? :lol:

bigchris 14-11-2009 12:09 PM

just to add Dan in a sound guy whom i have bought rc parts off of before ,plus he organises one of the best RC events in the UK which attracts the top drivers from around the world , i dont imagine Mr VXL boy to have the same reputation...:mad:
