matt check out the thread -- fast traxx tread heaven


by mstana on 2011-02-02 02:13:45 UTC

what page?, and whats your name if i can ask


by mstana on 2011-02-02 02:16:01 UTC

nvm, lol, nice tho, ive been looking up home to make molds and what type of compound to use to make treads, more so for nikko


by czstycor/c on 2011-02-02 02:27:29 UTC

Chad Summy is my name.

while you are at it make gears. the nikko gears last unlike the tyco's. but the super fast traxx gears seem real solid.


by mstana on 2011-02-02 02:31:07 UTC

ah yea, sorry forgot, yea i thought of that to, seems like every other fast traxx i get a low gear is striped, they give it to you in high gear like you wont know....


by mstana on 2011-02-02 02:34:34 UTC

the landshark comes in red to right? i know i saw pics of someones collection with each in box but i cant find it unless it was somewhere els.... know anyone that has a red one that might let it go?


by czstycor/c on 2011-02-02 02:37:50 UTC

yup, what were they thinking putting so much stress on that one gear.

that road shredder, i was going to put headlights in, i bet you could trick it out. the head lights are a clear orange so its not hard.

i haven't seen a red one all this past year, i know the collection you are talking about it is on the old forum


by mstana on 2011-02-02 02:41:09 UTC

yea i dunno, and im pretty sure a hobby shop wont carry anything like that cuz its 3 gears in one.... unless you can maybe fab 3 together somehow


by czstycor/c on 2011-02-02 02:44:19 UTC

yeah that is the problem, you would need to make them and get a mold made


by stan on 2011-02-02 02:57:39 UTC

by jeffescortlx on 2011-02-18 18:52:58 UTC

I must have: (open to any condition)

Nikko Turbo Panther.
Tyco Hopper
and of course a Bandit.

But would really like just about any Nikko, Tyco, Lobo, Radio Shack from the 80's, trucks or buggies.

Any tip's would be appreciated. I scan ebay and local craigslist regularly.

Does'nt matter if it's working or not, missing controllers are OK, I'd just gut it and put in a real radio, servo and ESC anyways.


by czstycor/c on 2011-02-18 20:13:40 UTC

I got some hoppers a red two blacks the old 8AAs ones the one blacks low gear is stripping but I have another rear for it just need to switch wheels.

Are you offering to sell me these?
Can you send me a pic or 2?
PM me your price.


by rustlers1911 on 2011-04-26 22:35:52 UTC

I am new on here and I am looking for a few rc cars from my childhood.

Specifically I am looking for Eliminators, Hi Jackers and Bandits, as is apparently everyone else on here. I check ebay fairly often but Hi Jackers seem hard to come by.

If you could find any of these, especially for a decent price I would certainly think about a donation ;)

Thanks!


by czstycor/c on 2011-04-26 23:37:27 UTC

Well what is your price range for these? I no longer have a hi jacker but do have eliminators and bandits and fast traxx if you like them.


by rustlers1911 on 2011-04-27 01:12:11 UTC

I am not looking for r/c's that are boxed or perfect condition. I want r/c's that I can play with and not worry about them getting a little scratched. Got any that fit that criteria?


by czstycor/c on 2011-04-27 02:51:32 UTC

Go to the thread check it out by me and you will see what I have I'm one that likes nice runner cars. The thread is a page back.


by rustlers1911 on 2011-04-27 03:07:51 UTC

I cannot find where you are talking about. I would be ok spending around $100 for the right RC


by czstycor/c on 2011-04-27 13:53:54 UTC

http://dragonhobbies.com/forum/index.php?topic=6448.0

there you go thats a link to the thread.

by rustlers1911 on 2011-04-27 17:58:22 UTC

Yes, please get some pictures of the black Bandits up. Sounds like they could be what I am looking for.
