I got a small futaba servo:FP-832H. It came with the early goldtub rc10 I had a couple years back. It says 'high speed' and looks very little used.
I wanted to use it on a 1/12th or smaller sale car, but it has the old style futaba plugs so it never made it into a runner, nor could I test if it even works still.

S32h was a g plug, s132h was the newer j plug. Great servo but is a bit too old for that car

I like that shot! By Intruder, you mean the soul sucking, design borrowing and retail hobby shop destroying Traxxas?



Or the Fusionspeed? :P

Awsome (& very valuable) group shot! - Can't be that many people out there with such a fine collection of carbon tubbed chassis (although its a pretty unique thing to collect for sure!) 8)

I think Tanaplan was a British brand - but not sure :?: They also did upgrade parts for various cars including some nice ali shock mounts for Schumachers, Cat3K has some on one of his Cougar builds.

Your restoration on this buggy is simply a work of art!! What an amazing piece.

And that group photo brings a tear to my eye :cry: Not just because of the sheer beauty but because you have so many and I don't have one :(... :lol:

My heart missed a beat as well. I admit I was annoyed I missed out on that wing but hey first come first served and congats on a perfect resto. Now in the centre of all those cars is my chassis so now to make you all happy. First chassis from the newly made mold is being made next week, and thats been made from the first proto chassis ever made and what I raced with for ten years so means its going to be exact (I hope anyway). So when i am satisfied its for sale but believe the cost will be around the £120 mark so great price.

Once done I am going to pay for a wing mold to be made as well, preferably like the RC10 version but a bit wider. Lets hope they will do this for me.

I think Tanaplan was and a fellow team mate who drove for Fabiix (Mannie Pannesar) and Ben Sturnham drove for them, if only they hadnt changed the endbell design Ben would have had 2nd at 4wd Basildon worlds but got 10th due to the discrepancy. Great motors
