Add 80wt Oil to the shocks

Looks like they used a different glue to glue thar sticker onto your transmitter because the ones on my transmitters came off very easily wihout leaving any mess. I was actually able to save the stickers and stick them neatly into the owner's manuals on the transmitter instruction page as a bit of extra keepsake.

You must get the upgraded metal drivetrain for your 16208 if you want to keep running it on 3s.

[@philipgrobler7253]

The Citroen drivetrain does not have the same weaknesses as the 16208 drivetrain.

[@philipgrobler7253]

Tighten up the screw that holds the main and bevel gear together at the rear (you have to disassemble the car for this) and Locktite the screw. This screw comes loose and then the bevel and differential gear destroy each other.

@philipgrobler7253 Thanks for the info, I will be sure to have a look at this.

Under $100 on AliExpress, Good Deal.

[@philipgrobler7253]

The seller in your link does not ship to South Africa for some obscure reason.

[@BCRC-y8k]

@philipgrobler7253 oh really!? There are alot of suppliers on Alliexpress so hopefully one of them will.

[@philipgrobler7253]

This ia not exacrly what I would call budget, but it is a very good RC car.

[@BCRC-y8k]

@philipgrobler7253 If you compare it to traxxas or even the new rlaarlo rally cars that have been released, this is very much a budget car.

[@ianjohnhorwood2605]

What ya really need is a mother ship hyper go , the 8 scale hyper GT by Hoboa , that will make your £90 cheap budget RC a toy 🤣🤣🤣 .

[@BCRC-y8k]

@@ianjohnhorwood2605 I will have to look out for one 👍

[@BCRC-y8k]

@@ianjohnhorwood2605 a 1/8 scale would be awesome!!

[@ianjohnhorwood2605]

​​@@BCRC-y8kthey are , love all my top spec Hoboa models , the GT rally , the VT road racer , the SST truggy , & the range topping VS2 buggy . 😁😁😁

[@ianjohnhorwood2605]

The model numbers don't really make a damn difference , the on road cars are all same chassis just different body shells . . I have 2 mini infraction race trucks and 2 Citroen C3 rally's . I disconnected the pointless light show , not needed sipping away extra needed power no matter how small the amount from gryo , servo , ESC , and battery . Could still do with better performing oil shocks and with more ground clearance , it's a rally car after all , not a GT road racer 🤣🤣🤣 .

[@BCRC-y8k]

@ianjohnhorwood2605 completely agree with the Shocks!! A must to upgrade. The stone situation is really annoying though! Like you say, it's a rally car, it should be driving on gravel, dirt and whatever you want it to drive on. its an awesome car but the small scale causes issues.

[@philipgrobler7253]

Rally car, so it is deal for loose dirt and tarmac.

[@BCRC-y8k]

Yeah, or sandy surface. I just had a lot of issues with stones jamming up the wheels and steering. I think because its so small any little stones get stuck in places you wouldn't usually get them stuck. So basically it's good for anywhere with no stones haha.
