Default Radio Controlled Car -- Thinking of Selling

Hi All

I am thinking of selling my RC Car ( I'm far too old for toys really!).

It's an electric HPI Firestorm 10T and I have fitted a Castle Creation Mambx Max 5700 speed contoller and motor, so it's pretty fast, but silent and simple (unlike the nitro models).

I also bought a 2000MAH 2 cell Lipo battery, which runs really well with the Mamba Max Speed controller - it's currently good for around 40MPH, but according to the Mamba Max setup guide, it'll do around 60MPH with a 3 cell Lipo! The charactersitics of the motor can also be configured via a USB cable.

I paid around £200 for the car and about £150 for the motor and speed controller, it's all in pretty good nic, there are some inevitable scrapes and scratches on the shell, which can be replaced easily.

Here's a link to the Mamba Max details Castle Creations | Mamba Max 10th Scale Power System and here's a link to the car HPI E Firestorm 2WD Electric Stadium Truck - RTR - Electric Stadium Trucks - Wheelspin Models UK

Anyone interested in making me an offer?

Cheers

I've got loads of old r/c cars in the garage, love em!

Bought a Midnight Pumpkin last year that I haven't got round to building yet, the fast ones don't interest me any more, I just like bashing the monster trucks about in the garden now!
