This is true, if the purchase is over £15 ($24 ish), then you pay the VAT. Import duty only starts at items valued over £135.

In practice most of my spares like shafts/arms/bearings are under...

I almost always buy through ebay from a US seller. The better ones take a week which i can live with.

I'm in the process of doing this exact same conversion but with all the extra weight wondered how the stock shocks have performed. What uprated shocks would people recommend and are they needed?

One other factor to consider is the weather or more specifically the amount of moisture in the air. The radio gear operates at 2.4GHz which is attenuated much more heavily by additional moisture in...

This is true if your chargers output power doesn't meet the required spec - not so in my case.

I hear you, if the packs are evenly drained this series config works well, if they are not evenly drained its not that great. I use hobbywing ESC's in my ERBE and Summit so this works ok for me, but...

Should be in '1/16 Scale E-Revo VXL & Slash VXL 4WD'

Please can a moderator move for me?

Hi All,

I picked up a 1/16th brushed e-revo and will be removing the XL-2.5, 380 motor and 27MHz radio gear.

Shall be installing 2.4GHz, bigger motor mount and a brushless 540 but cant decide...

Hi All,

The KB arrived in the UK yesterday and in my house today. Very pleased with the new arrival.

Have made a few mods before the first run:

1) Swapped to deans connector
2) Snipped...

What current rating are the Lipos?

I second Hughes500Bob, iCharger 206B and charge the packs in series, works for me.

Thanks guys, I can easily halve the length from the PSU to the charger.

Hi All,

For a while I have been 'getting by' with a ******* Accucell 6 first charging one LiPo, then the other. This was slow, tedious and labour intensive.

I wanted to charge faster whilst...

When I built my homebrew ERBE I nicked the MOAB's off the Summit.

I have finally got some new tires on the old boy and think they look rather nice. I'm also expecting a huge improvement in...

Hi All,

I came to the e-revo after buying both the summit and the slash 4x4 and loving them.

I decided to do ERBE on a budget and im quite pleased with what I have so thought I would post...

Hi NOFX,

I'm in the uk and imported my 2.4GHz from the US using ebay, PM me if you want the seller as they are still selling the gear.

Nice to hear Traxxaas UK are still functioning, I bought a...

Be aware the purple springs are a little shorter that the stock ones.

There is only one scale, kv is the rpms per volt.

The velineon is 3500 as you say.

Setups like the mamba monster have a lower kv but more torque due to their physical size. The higher torque...
