Ordered a Macnum Truck for 2 sec ago..did see that Silent_bob my clubmate have te Buggy, he passed by the club yesterday and i think it looks ral good...Since i have the B4 and S2 there is no need for another one, but we do have a truck class here...

So my Q are.

Best place for spares UK or other.
Bering size where i have to upgrade and how many? can the RT5 bearing kit fit?
RC10T4 T buckles do they fit?
What rims hex/fitment does this truck use? 12mm or? can a AE converison be done ? or so

hi mate ae turnbuckles fit
and i converted the front end to t4 spec all i did was bore out the wish bones at front where the hinge pin goes through at they are a bit bigger than ae ones but other than that it was fine
ae rear cvds are avalible from team c in japan or china but the kyosho truck wheels fit (think its 12mm)
as for bearing i just looked on ebay and found them straight away for about 10pounds
spares wise not sure on that one

Ok, ordered a extra truck :D....

I buy my spares at TCModels.net
I use kyosho wheels.

Have fun with your macnum :)

Thanks Kedal

What lids do fit this truck?

Thundertigre AT-10 (old AE T3)

Here if you are interested, i have a blogg for the truck http://ansmannmacnum.blogspot.com/

Inform us what you think about the t plate in carbon.
They will change the seeting?

What is this 'CA' you refer too when sealing the Carbon Fibre ?... what product are you using?

Thanks

J

CA glue :)

pics will come, trucks are located on the local PO now :D..

Thomas, do you play table tennis?, they often seal the edge of the blade/bat with super glue (ca) and then polish it, like you are doing on the carbon

Do you play table tennis nicefrog? :) I like it, and I play it as often as I can, though I'm not a very good player.
I like go kart as well :D I had a competition today, it was the 4th race out of 10 today.

Yep, I play table tennis in competitions. I don't go kart though :). I have had a drive of one only once. I was pretty fast (faster than the owner) but I didn't have enough money for that sport :). So I just stayed with table tennis, did you see my orange and green truck :)?

Of course I've seen it :) It is a nice paint job! Looks pretty professional. I have put some stickers on mine, and it still has the starting number form the race :)
It looks pretty good with the stickers :D
So you are a good driver as well :) Glad to hear that.

Used to play on medium level..but now only rc car racing :D...

2 trucks here on the table..box of Org hopups, some other parts are located on the Local PO, il be going there in a h or so

No , Lunsfords or Losi shocks, had no time, but i have started...
