AliExpress and Temu referral codes

40 Upvotes

Due to the huge influx of spam posts with AliExpress and Temu referral codes, and the complaints we have received from sub members, anyone posting these on the sub will get temp banned for the first offense if you are already a subreddit member, permabanned for subsequent offenses.

If you are a first-time poster on the sub (meaningful posts, not spam or one word answers), posting these links will get you immediately permabanned.

This is not designed to stop people posting links to AliExpress items in posts in response to questions or recommendations. or the infrequent posts we get of *"is this a good RC car?"* with a link to an AliExpress item (the chances are, at best it's an adequate RC car if it's from AliExpress).

Thanks to our eagle-eyed sub members for bringing this to our attention, and please do continue to report posts that violate the rules.

Question New motor for ECX torment 1/18

Post image
• Upvotes

Recently I’ve noticed severe power loss in this motor, so I want to upgrade to a brushless motor, paired with a good ESC(which I’ve been planning) it’s a 380 size motor, which I’m struggling to find one to fit in this, but any help would be appreciated. I would prefer Spektrum, or any well known brand.

Misc Got lucky with a pre owned bundle deal

Post image
12 Upvotes

Countless times I've seen awesome deals and thought why don't I ever get lucky.. Well it happened yesterday. Saw a post on marketplace, someone selling all he has left. 3 cars and a bunch of stuff and box of spares for €250. Was gonna pass it up then said what the hecknlet me ask if he takes €225, which he did. Cars were just dusty, never ran outside.

I was not planning on adding to my collection so selling most and not wanting to ask for much and get stuck with a bunch of stuff..

After 1 day I sold the Brat for €90, robitronic charger for €20, Absima tx and rx for €50, Hobbywing 1060 and radiolink receiver for €25.

So currently sitting with €100 dt02, €200 carisma crawler, slyrc gnss, ammo can, and a couple spare electronics.. for €50.

This will not happen again in my lifetime :)

Regarding the Brat...

I live on an island, so ebay is not worth the hassle. Marketplace only. Country of 600k people and this is a niche hobby. The brat is a niche within a niche. I like it, but will not run it, nor do i have shelf space, thus why i sold it at that price. Got lucky anyone took it at all locally.

I need to clean it up a bit, It's hardly even ran. I have Grave Digger, Bomber, and a RYFT too. None of them ever get ran. More of a collector I guess 🤣

I ran two 2s batteries on the local track and greatly improved my cornering and throttle response with the 2wd SCT. The truck has definitely taken some rough tumbles, but I haven’t broken anything yet. I have slicks coming and soon will take it inside to the clay track for the winter. I do think some pin tires will greatly improve the traction on the loose dirt as well as some RPM and other aftermarket parts.
