Hop ups?
 

Anyone know where any hop ups for the madrat can be found i know of the custom carbon stuff but what about this sort of stuff?

sorry dunno how to change it the word this is a link

BUMP

i have order 1 but he said there might not be anymore. getting made as he as not got the time to make them:(

yer i dont want the custom carbon ones atm i was talking of the stuff in the link

This link was posted a while back by someone showing a load of really good ideas for the XPro / Madrat:

Not sure where you'll be able to buy the parts though as it doesn't look like Ansmann will be bringing them in now

I really hoped Ansmann would bring all the upgrades for the mad rat although i have to say im not surprised if they dont, as its exactly what they did to the hurrax 1/5, they only seem interested in moving boxes rather than supporting a product fully.
They moan when you buy from h/kong to get the kit for half price then they seem happy for you to go and get the upgrades from there:confused:

i hoped they would well i guess i will have to get down the metal shop and make the bits i want up

The parts are available now direct from TeamC.
Email them at
[email protected]
I,m not sure on the prices yet though

thought they weren't banned from selling to the UK? or does that only cover kits?

hopefully Jamie can confirm what hop-ups are in the pipeline

hop-ups are coming, I have been told, hopefully the end of the month.

Ansmann WILL be bringing in ALL the hop-ups soon. We do support our cars and dont just "shift boxes".

We will be doing the complete range of hop-ups as listed on the team C website and many more. Keep your eyes peeled.

nice 1 dont miss me out plz. i phone you on monday :thumbsup:

Great news Jamie :thumbsup:

hi anybody got the web addy for team c


Cheers Ginge

great news:thumbsup:

ain't it in the posts above.. http://www.teamcracing.net/index_pro...1&imgid=528838

cheers mate i'm blind as a bat:woot:

I should be receiving my TC02 "metal bits" soon.Hoping to test them out at the PDA on wednesday night if they arrive in time.
I,ll post some pics :)

do they make stuff for the madrat t piece and all the hop ups for the madrat team c:thumbsup:

team C make the madrat, Ansmann just rebrand it in Europe. Team C sell all the spares and hop ups very cheaply, but they don't have a beefed up T-piece.

who make the hop ups for the madrat
 

who makes all the parts for the ansmann madrat all the hop ups for it :thumbsup:

did you not read my post above? Team C MAKE the madrat and all the spares, and all the hop-ups. In Europe they are sold under the Ansmann name, but Ansmann don't yet have the hop-ups in stock, hence why people are buying direct from Team C in Asia.

xpro cabon bits are better than the madrat bits. xpro stronger bit carbon fibre :thumbsup:

They defiantly are stronger , i have had no breakages with my Xpro as of yet , where as my mad rat broke every time i used it (including the t-piece) and those plastic shocks are truly terrible unless your on completely flat ground

The mad rat is a great car though, especially if you put the shocks and turnbuckles off the xpro onto it, I am sure it would improve it vastly

As for those Team C hop ups i am very interested in getting some myself , Could the guy who has got some of the parts take some pictures when he has them installed as i would like to see how they fit and look on the car

Thanks ! :)

By the way how much does that brass battery tray weigh

The brass battery tray weighs approx 120g

bloody hope not! mine arrived today also. If it was 615g it would be heavier than original NiMH cells!
i don;t have any decent accurate scales, but i imagine it's a typo and it;s actually 61.5g

The alloy bulkhead is nicely made, but would have prefered all brass for the weight. Will have to wait and see how good the alloy is once it;s been run a few times. But for £2.50 it can be made of cheese for all i care!
The B4 rear driveshafts also look really good, with all the washers etc needed.

Took 4 working days from time of order. Great service. Even sent the bits in 2 packages to keep them under the limit for duty.

As a matter of interest, where did you guys order these bits from. Any links??

that,ll teach me for getting my 6 yr old to weigh it lol

There isnt a link available.I emailed teamC direct and they were very helpful.

does your deal involve them selling spares/upgrades also Jamie? or is it just kits they aren't allowed to sell?

if u dont mind me asking, how much did all that come to? can u remember the price for each bit? im very tempted to get an order in.

You wanting a madrat to go with it Steve? VXL boy is selling his!

was thinking of a few cheap upgrades for my B4. But im very tempted to get a madrat as a back car.

Get one for the indoor championship at cullingworth! Get vxl boys!

These parts probably won't fit a B4. Might fit an RB5 though...

i think i might have to drop Stampy a pm about it:drool::p:thumbsup:

$69 delivered
just email teamC for parts list/price

I was thinking about buying the battery bar and the front arm mount if there cheap. if they dont fit then maybe attack it with a dremmel.

the brass tray is US$11
driveshafts were US$9
Bulkhead was US$4.10

springs were peanuts, about $1.50 per pair i think.
I got the top 3, some front wishbones, rear shock tower, and 3 sets of front and rear rims. Came to £35 inclusive, and that was including 2 lots of shipping to ensure each package was under the customs limit.
The wheels alone are £27 plus postage in the UK.
