    it ran pretty good before i took it all apart and cleaned it all. I just need to take apart the carb and put it back together. I find that usually fixes any problem.

    several of us on here have those batteries and charger. Great quality and 20-30 bucks a pop depending on the battery.

    In case anyone needs an engine let me know, I have a Jammin .21 engine I used around 4 races before I sold most of my things, still has strong compression and it never ran over heated. Just needs some love (taking it apart and cleaning, check bearings just in case) if I remember correctly I have brand new in box o-ring kit for it etc including an new head. Has backplate (not pull start or anything). Not looking to get anything for it only whatever it cost to ship. Saved it just in case I got back to nitro, but I'm pretty sure I wont.

    Yeah, there may very well be some (brushed RTR) sitting in hobby shops or warehouses. But was pretty sure AE has/had dropped them.

    For the money, that buggy looks pretty cool, (love the paint scheme). Not that it matters, but he said those we're 64 pitch gears, almost positive they are/were standard 48 pitch.

    I know. The parts are also interchangeable. Not bad for the price, IMO.

    Nice. I love all my HR products so far. And they all look awesome.

    Added a decent amount of toe in.

    I noticed they were marked 1.5, I'm assuming that's degrees each, total of three. What were the ones you replaced?
