    Well I have to make a few cut backs so my revo or my t-maxx is going. One or the other:(
    Later or next year im going to get another glider this time with a motor so I don't keep piling it onto the ground when I go to launch it.

    Well,
    Not exactly giving it up.
    I still must concentrate on my sons race car and keep it at the top of the pack or he will lose interest ;)

    I dont really have time for them all to be honest.
    Wanna buy one of them ? or both :D

    FMCC Is onroad electric touring cars which is going to be around for a very long time yet as I will stay running that for as long as it takes or as long as I feel I can help the club to grow and progress. I cannot really see it branching out into the offroad section as was planned. Hence, I want to Concentrate on running my sons Setup which eats up a good chunk of MY spare cash :pac:

    Let me know if you change your mind and let that starter box go on it's own.

    Cheers.

    In what sense...they come with a force .32 engine now?

    Upgrades on chassis
    Spektrum 2.4Gh DX3 Radio gear
    GO.28 engine would be a lot more economical than the .32 in a 30 or 40 minute final { Less pit stops for re-fuelling }

    I know this because my son had a Force.32 in his LSP and he seemd to be doing nothing only filling it :o

    im going to sell my T-maxx and revo. Im getting in to motocross:D

    Is the Force a particularily thirsty .32?

    Does it feel like much difference between the .32 and .28?
