Oh I hate this forum. Just got into a new hobby (cycling), which turns out costs a lot (shud have stuck with just running), and now here I am tempted by yet another new hobby, though been considering it for years unlike cycling which anyone at my running club will tell you... I hate MAMILs, and now I am one

I love Vanessa's Lunchbox myself 👀👍😳
heres the lunchie and dads pumpkin he bought for the garden after seeing how fun my lunchie was, both have oil shocks now and 5th shocks etc
sand viper is a solid kit and my one is too powerful for my garden, viper kit should come with fullbearings etc
heres mine over 10 year old and has really been abused and even ran over by a big nitro savage
what colour u doing your viper? what bundle u pick?
Ahh bugger, ordered the sand viper. Hope everything in that bundle is what I need, and I got the paint too

WOw brilliant stuff. You been following me on that other forum, but here is what I managed to finish in under 24 hours!
The kit included basic RC, 2 batteries, charger, and the servo. Wasn't too bad and instructions clear, just the servo caused me some issues picking the right screw, etc

Out of interest, did you paint straight onto the washed bodyshell, or did you roughen the inner surface prior to painting?WOw brilliant stuff. You been following me on that other forum, but here is what I managed to finish in under 24 hours!

Straight onto it washed. Does roughening it up make a bug difference? (totally new to all this). Really do like the gold despite being a little anxious when my daughter decided that's what she wanted (as the yellow was out of stock from where I bought it)
PS. the poor thing ended up in a river this afternoon.... Wasn't me driving, and he won't be having a go again for a while... Drying out in rice atm (the electronics!)
