This probably seems a dumb question but what are you people using for a turnbuckle wrench on your hot bodies cyclone ? the cyclone turnbuckles are a odd size 3.7mm ? I am fed up with dropping the little fiddly one that comes with the kit.


Suggestions Please :o

There will be a very nice HB branded item available soon......Muchmore have one too, that's been out for some time.

I have seen both of these items, but the much more is 4mm, does this not round off the turnbuckle square edges ? do you have any idea as to the HB wrench release date ?

How about soldering or glueing the small HPI wrench to the end of a cheap allen driver or screw driver :D

I have found a shop in Hong Kong selling the new Hot bodies tools:) so have ordered the hot bodies wrench:p
I too thought about extending the kit wrench some how but I am a slave to fashion I'm afraid and I need BLING to survive:D

I have been looking to fined some alloy spinners that fit over control wheels so I can really out BLING my racing Buddy's. Me and my Buddy's compeat on the track and off, we try and fined any pointless peace of BLING to out do each other:o My new wrench will do for this week:cool:

But you can't see most of the things under the shell! Lighten your car up and just make the shell and wheels look the NUTS! :D

Have a look at the ''bling bling'' you can get for your body and wheels.
