I'm new here, I have followed your forum for a while and now I decided to register. I've been with RC-cars quite short time, from 2007. Mostly I drive my 1/5 FG Marder, but I've always loved oldschool electic cars, especially buggies.
So I have couple old Kyoshos that I want to show you.
First, my Turbo Optima Mid, that I purchased last summer. It's working thing with Futaba ESC and mysterious MIH motor. Ko Propo EX-II transmitter followed this car. I love cars design, they say that this is first modern-day buggy.
I gonna restore this during this spring, I've been also thinked to turn this to brushless. I don't have much knowledge about electrics, so I'd like to know, what kind motor, ESC and battery would be good for Mid.
Then there is Raider Pro, that I purchased at this week. I have not received it yet, it hould be in my hands at next week. Seller said, that its in very good condition, not much driven. And it looked good in pics. And it was quite cheap.
There is also my cousins old Raider Pro project, that in slightly restoring:
My cousin got this for christmas present when he was young. It has saw almost everything. It's been in storage almost 20 years now, since it's old battery died. With new battery it turned alive again. It needs some new bearings, rear tires and some polishing. I gonna keep it "as it is" as much as possible.
Now, some comments? And suggestions about Mid's electrics!
Cheers,
Antti
