RC Hobbies Club - Where the fun never stops!

Another of Zapmans.

What a major disapointment this this was. Bought off ebay cheap(thank god), the guy siad it was hardly used, what appears to have happened, was he ran the out of it and installed a new chassis to make it look new. The engine was toast, tires were wiped out and was missing a few screws. Needless to say, the seller got negative feedback for misleading and selling junk.

The engine was replaced with a new one, tires and wheels were swapped out for shrome MiniT wheels and Losi Smasher tires. Then it was broken in and traded on RCU for a HPI RS4 Super Nitro onroad. Its not missed at all. This did me in for mini RC's They are not my thing.

That thing is to small... Id loose it on my workbench under something :lol:
after you got it all re-done, did it at least impress you at all?

Nope. it was a sad ass joke of an RC. Minis and Micros are not our thing, the bigger the better. Just trying to work on these lilis a chore in itself. The engine only has 1 needle adjustment, so tuning was a major pain, not much of a sweet spot. There is no adjustble tierods so what you have for toe-in-out is what your stuck with. And what a pain to get started, not being able to fine tune the carb made for hard starts. The speed was slow at best, we had electrics that had a faster top speed.

All in All, we were severly disapointed in it.

yeah i have to agree i bought it thinking it would be fun to tear it up mini style-but they are not for me either-i think there just a fad--mabye better left to the electrics! i personaly will stay far away from nitro mini things!
