RE: Looking for plastic panther lower hull

RE: Looking for plastic panther lower hull

Not sure what to do.

I'd rather not pay $30 for just a singular lower hull when I can get a whole tank for $75

Anyone know of,any good online tank stores for stuff like this?

How about a "Live chat get together?"

These forums have been great and I would love to go to an actual tank club, but there are none close to me. I think it would be awesome if we could schedule a live chat some night (maybe using AIM?)...

My Tiger runs at 19.2 MPH

My heavily weighed down metal HL Tiger travels at 19.2 MPH if it is adjusted to its scale or 1.2 MPH. Is this a good speed?

RE: RX14 Vs RX18 MFB

RE: Mysterious electrical problems with HL Tiger I

This is quite odd. I have three batteries: Two 1700 mAH NiCDs and one 3000 mAH NiMH. They all work on their first run, but on the second recharge its like the batteries are ancient. The lights dim...

RE: Tiger I bearing trouble/questions

Woot, a little (Ok, alot of sanding) of the inside bore of the bearing got it onto the drive shaft. I love what you did to the actual gearboxes!

Unfortunately, my gearboxes seem to be affixed...

Tiger I bearing trouble/questions

Based on some posts here, I ordered some bearings from AvidRC.com, it was a 8x14x4 (or something, the first number matters, it's the bore size in millimeters)

Driving your tank in public, reactions?
