Been meaning to load some pics up, so here goes. This is my worlds re-release. IMG_1842.JPG Took it to a grass race at the weekend as my spare car. After a broken part stopped my b5m in heat 2, I needed to run this, and it flew. The grass was worn and loose, and the rear motor worked a treat. Next t...

I'm really tempted, but we only run one heat of buggies at my club, followed by several heats of gt12s, touring and pan cars. I'm the only one running a 2wd buggy, so it's my b6 against a mix of associated, tamiya and Schumacher 4wds. I've just got to the point of really being able to throw it aroun...

I've got one of these in my build queue! Great looking car, and I love that paint job in the first picture.

let me dig through my parts box, because I might have a brushed set up that came out of one of my xxx's. so it should be period correct. i'll pm you with some pics

Great find, I've got a couple of these, but the Brian kinwald version with graphite bits and blue wheels. They drive really well and there's plenty of spares still available on fleabay or in stock at you local rc shop. I've got a brushless set up with lipo in mine and it flys! I've had it out on the...

I have the same issue in my racing cars when I use savox servos. I found that I needed to use a power cap plugged in to the receiver No problems since. Give it a go, they're a very cheap fix at a few pounds each.

More than happy to help. Feel free to pm me. Cheers proc

Great find. I've been racing a xxx bk and it's great fun, and parts are ok to find. Plus it looks like a real car, none of this cab forward malarkey. Enjoy.

Great paint job.....I might have to copy it. What colours / paints did you use?

awesome paintwork. How did you get the look on the wing? For semi-transparent wings i use tamiya spray cans in "flat clear". Great tip, thanks for that. I tend to keep my wings low maintenance so it doesn't matter when I smash them up racing. So this'll give them a little extra over clear...

Any tips for getting that paint job done?

Very nice. I'm building one of these at the moment to race at my local indoor carpet track. It's test run is next Friday, and I can't wait to see how it goes. Although the paint job won't be so neat. Is yours destined for the track?

Great looking car, it just wants to race. I really need to finish mine off and get it down the track. Quick question, what did you use for the wing wire? Cheers

With these reedy motors it doesn't matter which wire from the esc goes to which wire on the motor. When you plug it together, if the motor runs in reverse just swap two wires around and it should run forwards.

Good luck with the rebuild.
