this is funny, check this out guys. I just happen to be going through the tamiya thread and found this thread again.
as you may well remember, TonyV bumped up a 1 year old thread with his problematic 501x, which has nothing to do with this thread by the way.

Noted: TonyV has now purchased a SX3(belt drive), gee he is the biggest hypocrite alive
