thanks jim.
i have been having trouble with the car and have had trouble getting any support. the car is good when i can get it too stay together. i would like too add that i am not a heavy driver or a newbie, i have been doing this for years and am relatively quick normally. (please god someone back me up ) i do realise that i am driving a prototype to speak of but it really is not living up too all the hype. i am not giving up and will continue too struggle on but a little support would be gratefully recieved.
and now for the slating i will surely recieve.

Anyone wanting help with the Cobra 811 ring my dad Jeff at Elite R/C in Halifax. The shop number is 01422 373010. The shop is open monday tuesday thursday 09:30 till 18:30, friday 09:30 till 18:00 and saturday 09:00 till 17:00. Closed weds and sunday. He runs the cobra and stocks alot of spares. Regarding the shock stand offs my dad is just an average club driver and has never broke a standoff on his cobra and he will admit does have some heavy crashes at times.

Ring him for any help and support.

PS MR WOLF YOU HAVE HAD PHONE NUMBERS AND EMAIL ADDRESS PM'ED TO YOU BEFORE PLEASE RING

this is probably my mistake as the only time i have rung is on a wednesday and thursday, i did try on thursday and got no reply allthough his dad give me there home number so i think this may have been the problem, but i can testify as too the fact that the shock standoffs did snap and after a light landing after the main jump at herts, it may have just been a couple of weak ones but it did put pay to a good meeting at that point. until i retrofitted losi ones. i would like to put the record straight at this point i have had NO trouble at all with elite r/c and they have been in touch via pm and given me phone numbers too get in touch i think it just been a case of ships passing in the night, and they have always responded too any queries i have had.
