Shouldn't be as it's calculated by weight. I think you could have the courier service selected (default as it's the newest postage price i put on) which is suitable for anything upto 25kg and not just 30g

Select a different postage method such as 1st class royal mail £1.45, 2nd class royal mail £0.95.

Website only been in it's "newest" form for the past 5 months and with 3,000 different products to add it's a daunting task with running a shop aswell. If there's any bits people wish to see on there please ask.

Thanks for pointing out the postage errors and i'll have a look and hopefully fix the default to 1st class tomorrow.

For buggies then rubber seals are best to use as they're normally subjected to dirt, water or both. Some kits use a mix of full rubber sealed and half rubber half metal sheild. The benifit to being fully sealed is that the lubrication stays in but also marginally increase friction.

Our kits use a mix. We have full rubber sealed wheel bearings/drive pinion bearings and the larger diff bearings are half sealed.

I think our kits are very well priced and high quality.

Never hurts to have a few spare bearings, and at least the Durango ones are nice and cheap £4ish for a pack of four

That reminds me, I must take mine out and oil them after a wet and snowy Stotfold today, or I will be having problems with them

Our bearings are Blue Lightning bearings which are new and imported by radio racers.

At the moment we mainly do rally x kits online but trying to get all the 1/10th electric online. We already have kits for the b4 b44 x6 squared dex410 etc.

They're very well price and trade applications are welcome from
shops wishing to sell them. We are looking to expand this range for 100's cars and also screw kits.

Available at www.radio-racers.co.uk with all kits being
added in the next week.
