RE: DuraTrax 1/5 DX450 Brushless On/Off-Road Motorcycle

Outstanding advice! Thanks for taking the time to write that down, Microdan! I'll give this a try. I'm certain that I was on the guide bars more than a nano-second. Probably more like 30 seconds...

RE: DuraTrax 1/5 DX450 Brushless On/Off-Road Motorcycle

Nano,

Again, great job on the brake system. These bikes are great, but they are a little weak on stopping power. I wasn't able to drive mine very well on our indoor track because I couldn't...

RE: General Lee HPI Charger!!!
