no its not but trying to mesh the pinion gear to spur gear is a nightmare

[jim76]

ha ha ha ha!!
should have looked at one before buying then shouldn't you!!!
there is an easy way, but i'm not going to tell you!

[stampede vxlboy]

ok thanks jimmy i wanted to get it ready for the weekend for racing at batley but iwill have to miss out again

[jim76]

oh well, never mind.
you could always try reading the manual!

or, i have a cunning plan. take it to the club and ask one of the regulars to have a look.
D'oh!!!! i gave him useful advice again!! Lucky for me you won't follow it

[PaulRotheram]

Just because you cant get it meshed? even im getting bored of this crap now...

[stampede vxlboy]

jimmy everything you told me i did to the b4 and everything work right thanks to you thanks anyway

[stampede vxlboy]

its ok guys i will just take to the shop then thanks anyway

[jim76]

what about the part about using it and racing it, not selling it for another car which you will complain about 3 hours later?

actually, don't answer, i'm off to bed

[jim76]

double post

[stampede vxlboy]

i wanted to race it but get it running before the weekend but i will have to leave racing out till the car is ready

When I got my B4 I got it on the Wed Night, built it and painted the shell on friday, shake down Saturday night and Raced it in the Supercup on Sunday, and won my final. I'd not owned or run a B4 before then so it was all guess work. Just put the time in and read up on things before asking so many questions .

[DanB4]

Is meshing pinion to spur not one of the easiest things to do on an rc car? Or am I missing something?? I think it's easier than bolting on wheels! Unless he is referring to the cam method of meshing on the losi.....which isn't exactly rocket science....

[ashleyb4]

the xxx4 has a similar meshing procedure to the xx4 its one of the eaiest cars in the world to mesh.

[DanB4]

Exactly! How on earth can it be misunderstood??
