Does anyone know where i'd pick up cardboard/storage boxes? one is to snugly fit my b4 (with wheels/wing attached) and the other would be for my wheel transmitter.

i have made 2 myself, but as you can imagine, they are of sub-standard quality (falling apart!). these would be the type of boxes i'm looking for;

although these guys only sell in bulk.

cheers!

Depends on what you want to spend.
Without a doubt, the best solution is a RC hauler bag (like Ian's, Brian's and Mick B's) - pricey at between 50 and 90 euro

I'm a bit tighter than those boys though - so I bought some cheap plastic storage tubs from Dunnes - about 10 euro each and perfect size to hold 2 x kit boxes.

well i have an upgrade rc bag, which has plenty of room for all my gear. i just need the boxes to keep my buggy/tranny from getting damaged and i want to keep all my gear in the one big bag. i don't think i could justify buying a hauler bag just yet.

What about this for your tranny?

ye mick, that would do nicely for the tranny (could you order that for me?). now all i need is a box for the buggy. if you search for "SP103" on cml, do you think those boxes fit a full b4 buggy? if so, can you order me that aswell?!

1 x FAST684
1 x SP103

i may throw out my stapled-together boxes now! :lol:

Don't think the SP103 will hold a buggy.

I've a similar box here and I can't fit a buggy into it with out taking off the arms.

What about this?

ye, i saw that bag (FAST687), but at £30, it's a wee bit pricey for a buggy holder. there's got to be some sort of a replacement box like SP103 that will fit a b4. there's just got to be!!
