How many Aussies onboard.
 

No its not a joke tho i could give a few funny answers.
I have just moved over to this site as i have found the Traxxas site to be discrimanative of most threads.
I do most of my shopping via the web and postman. As HS's in Oz are a bit behind the times.
:gasp:(I took my Erevo into one the other day and the bloke behind the counter blew a bolt. Especially after i showed him how hard it went).:surprised:
When i buy parts, its ezr to buy bulk and resell and/or keep for spares. That way postage prices arnt wasted.
So i guess i'm just looking for swap meet standards online.
If ur an Ozzie just a quick reply with ur state will give me an idea who's onboard.

Traxxas E-Revo mmm 2200kv :mdr:

Revo racer 3.3:whip:
Hyper ST Pro .28 Nosram.:yipi:

Welcome to RC-MONSTER. Greatest bunch of guys and info. Enjoy

I'm in NSW, and thats all I am going to tell you:lol:






<<<<<< ignore that:lol:

Why did you leave the Traxxas Forum. Did it have something to do with a little "misbehavin":diablo::whistle:

Anyway, there are a few people from Australia here.

Pick me FatCat! I know there's a number of us but I'm not sure if any are from Adelaide.
I too am like you, I get blank looks at the LHS, but I think electric is starting to make a presence in the west.

I don't post much in here but check it out almost daily for info. I live in Brisbane, got a Savage in conversion, old losi buggy and a couple of drag cars. Most things are cheaper even with a bit of freight from OS but we have a time frame issue and cheaper freight options have no tracking - I am currently missing an order from Tower with this problem.
A few LHS around are good for small things.

hey hey!

Welcome aboard mate! i'm from Sydney

i too buy every bit of my RCs over the net. LHS don't have the parts or POWER requirements i need hehehe =]

I'm from Perth.

Another from Sydney...welcome to RCM

Howdy n thanks for the replies. I proudly own a
E-Revo MMM 2200kv combo, RPM decked with led lit crowdpleaser body.

I'm running medusa's and MMM's here in brisbane OZ RC are ok for bits and pieces but both my truggy and my E maxx came from the states. Post up any bulk buys you are thinking of - you may get a bulk discount if you get enough units

Why did you show pictures of the revo if you want to convert the hyper?
Sound like great bashers but what's that funny green tube thing at the back:na:

Must have something to do with the funny looking finned thing it is connected to :rofl:

I'm not aussies but I'm asian so does it still count? :lol:

Received the motor mount thanks Mike. Time to start the stripdown.

Decided to forward the motor so i flipped the centre diff. That meant i had to grind the chassis for spur gear clearance.

Aussie on board right here, living in seppo land now though, wisconsin

Me too! :) am from oz. Running a rustler, e-revo and maybe soon a e-revo vxl.

I've been through a savage 25, duratrax nitro evader st, crt.5, hyper 8, hot bodies lightning pro2, mini-t and mini-lst2. All gone for various reasons. All of them have seen brushless power 'cept the nitro evader :)

Allright... Finished it all in one day. Took it for a spin and yeah, I'm impressed.

Hey all from Bris-vegas!
Have 2x hyper7 converted to brushless using RCM motor mount.
1 has medusa 36x60 2000kv, and mamba monster max, usually running 4s lipo.
the other, mamba max with the feigao 7xl 2382kv running 4s also.
Also got a stock E-firestorm flux.
And an E-savage converted to brushless. Cheap setup tho.
TB01 with BL setup. Carbon fibre chassis and top plate.
Finally have a Hyper ST rtr, was brushless, but changed back and is up for sale

wow do you have a second garage for all your rc have you found anywhere to race brushless in Briz vegas - 8T's almost done (tekno conversion) and I want to go beat some nitros

I just got told the other day about a new track out pimpama way. Haven't checked it out yet. I don't race tho, I'm just a basher. Favourite place to bash is Wynnum bmx track behind the on road rc track. There's a set of doubles there with another set behind it. We jump from the start of the first to the lander of the second! It's insane!

Hey guys, another Aussie here, but from the gold coast :) I have a few brushless RCs up my sleeve :)

*RC8 running Tekno conversion and tekin rx8/2650kv combo on 4s.
*Savage flux running MMM/neu 1515 on 4s.
*Savage 21 converted with all fastlane machine gear pretty much all hopped up running lehner 2230/11 MGM 16025 z series but needs 6s lipos.
*The original savage 21 parts built up with a few spares and a speed passion conversion with a speed passion brushless combo but the battery trays are junk, so will be getting some from kershaw designs - running this on 4s.
*Converted LST which is in pieces.. Used to run the lehner and an MGM 16024 on 18nimh cells
*Stampede with castle sidewinder 5700kv combo and 2s lipo
*Yokomo LCG driftmaster chassis with MM/feigao 380c 7t on 2s
*HPI Pro D chassis with MM/feigao 380c 7t on 2s
*Yokomo SSG on it's way for drifting duties also :)

I have an rc8 truggy with an RC monster chassis on the list next, not sure if I'll get another MGM or MMM for the esc, or neu or lehner for the motor, but more than likely the easier available MMM/neu tho.

I have checked out the pimpama track, and they will let you run with the nitros no worries :) I took up the rc8 recently, but didn't do so well - the RX8 ended up thermalling(I did later find a rock in the fan) plus I had no transponder and it was the first time I ever hit a race track hehehe but it is clearly faster than nitros, but probably only needs the 2200 combo...

Would be good to get a leccy bash going round brissy or the coast or somewhere in between some time :)
