I've just ordered my TLT-1 at Hobby Town USA, Along with a complete bearing set and Hitec HS-5125MG Servo(Very Low Profile). I already have and gonna run a Novak GT-7 with a Chameleon 2 Pro motor and a XXL FM receiver. I'm gonna shell out the cash next month for that Penguin r/c P2300 Performance Chassis. Im gonna have a Midnight Black Shell. This is gonna be the coolest TLT in town :D, well the only TLT in town :cool: I'll have regular updates when it comes in ;)

get picture glue. it glues the pic with a clear drying glue and then you paint over it. xxx main makes some and parma does too. tower hobbies has them both i think.

yeah thats the stuff. But it works best with magazine paper. Not sayin it wont work with just plain on computer paper it just wont be as bright.

First Failure:mad: my custom locked center diff failed should of used JB weld instead of 5-min stuff, only the front wheels work. But it does front wheel burn out like no ones biz:D the 14-turn motor pulls some major power:D

Dang i wish mine looks that good. Mine looks more like a chicken came and pooped all over my diff. Its made all the more worse by the quite ugly grinding i did to get my sliders to fit to the stock diff.

Failure 2: Who ever designed the battery tray should be fired from there job! While jumping my trucks, the battery tray got stuck in the spur gear :mad: I can't wait till i turn 18 on the 30th and get my debut card! The first thing I'm gonna buy that P2300 Performance Chassis:D

i have also had many problems with the battery and electronics trays. My battery tray has a huge scrape mark where the spur gear melted the plastic on it when it it it. Also the battery and electronics trays have both been thrown from the truck after jumps. Gotta make some metal ones that the screws that hold it in actually go threw

Ive got 4 more days till I turn 18, get my debit card, and order one of them P2300 Chassis, Rock and Roll!!!!

Im looking for tires. I think my TXT-1 tires are way too big and Im already using them for my SkyJacker Double Duty 250. I dont wanta loose those stock rims they look sweet already but I may have to sack it for a bigger tire.

Any Ideas!!!!

yeah i like the stock rims but i think you will have a very hard time finding a wheel that will fit them. Ive never seen a rim quite like them before.

Cripes dude... I paid $64 for the extension kit and the linkage kit. Did you contact Tobee directly? They asked me to do a international bank transfer but I asked if I could send a money order and they let me do that. :)

Update...

Sorry School Sucks,

The Phantom got a couple major upgrades since last time I posted. I just extended the wheel base about 2 inches with some Duratrax Turnbuckles and a HPI 48mm dogbones. Also got some new Rubber with a set of Pro-Line Dirt Works A/T's (http://prolineracing.com/proline/tires/1072/1072.html) on some black HPI MT Mesh Truck Wheels (http://hpiracing.com/wheels/wheels-t.htm). Well next mod is gonna be the Penguin R/C P2300 Chassis (http://www.penguinrc.com/products/tamiya/p2300.html)

Stay Up:D

UPDATE- The P2300 Performance Chassis is on is and has made my tlt (w/ no electionics) as heavy as a Mini-T. I gotta spend some more money to get new links to extend my chassis to it fit the F-350 Body (http://hpiracing.com/graphics/bodies/7174.jpg) I ordered. More money I'm wasting on this thing...
