    What do you recommend as an ESC unit as well as transmitter/receiver combination? Also a good motor upgrade that will plug into the ESC? I just purchased the kit and I am looking for options that will not cost a fortune.

    • @rcoverland4459
      @rcoverland4459 Před 2 lety

      Use the standard stuff with kit, just to get you going. Radio I use ec3. I think that’s what it’s called. Maybe ep3. Been a little while. So apologies I can’t recall. As for esc an motor combo, well depends what you want out of it, the goul brushless set up for £30 ish, although a little cheap nasty, is not a bad bang for your buck, If you want something sensible a hobby wing 1080 if I got the digits right is great, again could be 1060, ones a crawler esc other ones a basher type. As for the motor, anything lower then 21 turns will be a lot better then then the standard motor in this box

    Hi I built an original hornet when I was in my teens took me a weekend. I've currently got another original one but I've tried converting it using a ubec but have confused myself now at the age of 53 currently stuck on how to move forward. Nightmare!! I connect the battery up but it acts weird 💩 wondering if I'd be better off selling it all to someone who knows what they are doing and buying a new decent model. Already made.?? Any suggestions?

    • @rcoverland4459
      @rcoverland4459 Před 2 lety

      Personally buying old kits built is a no no, if your struggling now. A ready to run kit is great. But personally take it to a model-shop there sort it cheap and in next to know time, I’d happily assist, but ping pong messaging is so slow, and leads to further frustration usually

  • @gunnerman1880
    @gunnerman1880 Před 2 lety

    Thanks for that I have a original hornet that I'm wanting to update with new gear do you think it's possible,? I was confused about the crystal thing but now you've showed me it's fairly easy and I might update motor and servos. So I'm interested if you do this too is love to see that.

    • @rcoverland4459
      @rcoverland4459 Před 2 lety

      Servo on a hornet is fairly easy if I recall. Motor depends what you got now, as some of them need a plastic offset ring, in which you may no longer have

      This kit didn’t. Rumoured Tamiya have done it. But I assume if honest just models shops actually adding extras needed on top of the kit. As I never seen a box that suggest anything but the kit alone. Be careful thou as shop shops remove the esc and the kit price is cheaper then the average price.

People roll the models and want to make good again 2. Over time they do peel 3. Many people including my self do mess up the stickers when applying 4. Makes sense to custom print them in different colours schemes for special order due to USA laws with tamiya, I do know when these kits are made they have to offer a certain amount spares for a set period of time.
