The 25mm 1000rpm motors are ready to go! Also renewed Botbitz stock as far as possible: they're currently out of 10a so I only have 3 of those at the moment.

Botbitz have had to make some price rises to compensate for the state of the Australian dollar. By extension I have had to add £2 to the cost of TZ85s and will need to add a little to the others in the next stock run. Nothing can be done about it unfortunately, just the current state of the AUD.

More stock of the Saturn-16 will also be available soon.

Cheers,
Ellis

Sent you pm before I purchase from your shop

Recieved my order today, great service with fast delivery

[Ellis]

Thanks Ady!

Some may have noticed the apparent lack of Botbitz ESC stock lately. I have been ordering in and then sending out ESCs to those who have reserved them, and because of the slowed availability at the Australian end, it has been a game of catch-up for a month or two.

If you needs ESCs, particularly 85a versions, please send an email to ellis@ranglebox.co.uk so I can make sure I get what you need on the next run.

Also, 25mm 1000RPM motors are now out of stock for about two weeks - more are on the way.

2016 is going to be a big year for Ranglebox and for our hobby in general. Exciting stuff soon!

Cheers,
Ellis

Typically, the stock has run out on the same day as I'm looking to buy! Haha!

Ellis, I'm looking to order a few bits from you in the very near future. What is your stock of 10a ESCs like? Your website suggest you have 2 in stock. Is there any chance i can reserve them until you also have 2 of the 1000rpm motors?

[Ellis]

Hi Duffman,

Sorry about that! I will send a PM and we'll figure something out.

[TornTech]

Hi. Any update on availability for the 10a botbitz ESC's? will need 2 to start with...

[Ellis]

Hi Tom, I am just holding off on the next stock run until Botbitz have a few 30a units to include in the shipment. I expect stocks will replenish in ~2.5weeks or so. Thanks!

Do you have any type of notification system once their back in stock?

[Ellis]

I will either post here or send you a message as soon as they're in.

Can your gearboxes be made using longer shafts?

Can your gearboxes be made using longer shafts?

Hi, assuming you're referring to the Saturn-16, the length of the output shaft (along with other dimensions) is fixed. It would be possible to produce a longer version, but without access to the right tools, at a very high cost - it's a complicated one-piece gear carrier and shaft.

[shakesc]

Its quite a long shaft as standard. Why do you need a longer shaft?

[higgeh]

just the way im looking at driving my wheels needs a long shaft so i can have a wheel direct attached, a gear for a chain and some form of support.

back to the drawing board

[harry hills]

That shaft is more than enough. I've fitted 10mm wide timing pulleys on there, and 6mm chain (at different times) a 30mm wheel and still had tonnes of shaft left
