Hi Michael The RCTA webstore does not sell levers for the 9XR Pro. The levers for sale are for the plain 9X. The 9X lever will not work in the 9XR Pro. First make sure that you do actually have a 9XR/9XR Pro lever. If you specifically asked for a 9XR lever one MAY of been sent (there is an extremely...

hey All If you have bought the Rathaus files prior to June 2018 they you will have been sent in an email update files to print a checkpoint like the one below http://rctanksaustralia.com/images/checkpt/shut_01.jpg With the addition of a HobbyKing HK15318B servo the boom gate can be made operational ...

I have been asked so many times" What voltage for LEDs?" that I thought it would be best just write one response and put it on the forum. The first thing to realise is that is not the question that needs to be asked. LEDs are NOT voltage rated they are CURRENT DRIVEN. LEDs will work with any voltage...

These bits and pieces are available elsewhe...

Hi Matman Sorry to hear of your problems but you have encountered "the great deception" when it comes to R/C tanks. The factory 2.4 ghz system of the Chinese tank makers are proprietary.

Looking good, just out of interest Wayne what width did all of your prints end up being? My assembled top floor came to 986mm in width and that is in ABS with all my sections printed vertically. I'd be interested to know what your dimensions ended up given horizontal printing. IF you paln to take th...
