So damn cold lately I havent ran RC much (19f was high today here..brrrr) but got the 51lb custom truck out today for a little run. Sorry for bad vid, I still suck filming & driving at same time.

Short vid, sorry for poor filming, I know I suck lol

Such a cool build!

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.

Thanks man. Quick pic, because I posted this on another site and people don't realize how big this truck really is lol. It weighs 51lbs, here's a pic of it with me, I'm 6'4" 235lbs so it gives a true idea how big this is flyin through the air

Hi,

Finally I found a Dominator, and finish to restored the chassis:

I must paint the body.

On the shock I had an O ring glued on the cap to keep the oil in, the wheels and foam tires are for Yokomo 870C car from TOP in UK.

Set up 20...

Awesome build! I cant imagine how fast those cars would go with modern power! They were insane the last time I saw them race in '89!

Got this from a good mate. It started life as a Ferrari on road racer. A Optima Mid Custom chassis that Kyosho slapped on a nice shell with the cool 5 spoke star chrome wheels. My mate converted it to...

The gearing is around the right mark. The platinum shocks aren't that good and too stiff . The rear springs are modded Losi...

Was lurking around at another one of my favorite hangouts on the interwebz and came across an Icarus by dumb luck. This will be another fun one and is my oldest project to date.

Nice find! My very first buggy was the Cox Bandido and I loved it. The best part about it was when you turned it upside-down and saw a huge Kyosho logo on the bottom of the pan. The one flaw it had was the front A-arms. They would pop off the ball...

Can anyone tell me if the Kyosho Icarus (2wd caged vehicle) was a decent running beginners buggy? I'm thinking about looking for one for next year's off road vintage nats beginner's class and wanted to know the good/bad aspects of the buggy.

Hi,
I just picked up an Icarus to add to my Kyosho collection. I think the Oil filled shocks should help the suspension a bit especially over the friction dampers on Pegasus/Bandido. I have been looking into the Cosmo also and it has a different...
