Default RE: official smartech buggy thread

i have about $20 worth of excel website parts that dont fit my winnersport

ok guys ya DON'T ORDER THAT CLUTCH i have one. a perfect replacement clutch is the hpi mt clutch. i have it in mine. works great. and very cheap.

the knuckles that are for the winnersport 3 are number 11413 on excels website

the knuckle support 11414 fits the winnersport, i would guess all of them

the clutch bell 11350 is only for the single speed as well

the spur gear listed on the site 11284 could proabbly be used for the second gear in the winnersport. i could be wrong on this one cause my gears are still great. so i havent tried to put it in.

the drive dogbones, from the diffs to the wheel are 78 mm make sure you order those. they are part 11432. i ordered main drive dogbones by accident.

on the lighter side, i also own an hpi MT, a losi mini-t, and an anderson mb4, and i swear thean excellent replacement header is the hpi mt one as well, it also comes with a .15 engine. so it fits nice. mine cost $7 (canadian) so that like 2 pounds for you UK boys.

and the cheapest place to get bearings is rcmart. mine are great and if you wait to put an order in and get quite a few parts the shipping becomes very very reasonable.

excel hobby website is however way cheaper than rcmart. especially shipping to canada because they are american.

I own an hpi mt, smartech winnerpsort, losi-mini t, and an anderson mb4 (aka duratrax vendetta) and the smartech is the most bang for the buck, my losi mini t has cost me more to get it to a fun level than my smart tech. a 1/10 nitro buggy is cheaper to run/maintain than a 1/18th electric. crooked world we live in.
