Can't help on what else might fit, just checked jason's store and he is out of the uni's. I checked with the big k and they said more will be released in the next couple of weeks, seems to be the standard answer. Really hope they do make more hop ups available, been holding out to start building mi...

has anyone found any other UJ / CVD shafts that fit?
Seem like the genuine Kyosho ones are hard to find as well as pricey

mine came the same way, with one tire looking like it had been placed in the blister before the lettering was dry and some stuck to the inside of the blister. Now that I'm looking at my kit, and all the old school parts I have, I'm thinking I might just order a complete gearbox, and a couple of othe...

Anyone mounted any current 2wd buggy wheels yet ?
I want to race my car indoor so I want to get some 2.2s on it

This latest version is much more what I was thinking of doing. Shorty pack, everything in line. A couple of suggestions, get everything as close to the centre line as possible, and cut the wires down to neat lengths. Also, when I ran mine with lipo setup I found running about 30g of lead up front re...

I got a reply back from Kyosho America saying hop ups due in 3-4 weeks.

Also they will ship direct to Canada as well, although it read to me like they were the most expensive option

Here is where I have been going with mine....Tomahawk 2014 :mrgreen: I like it ! I do wonder if I can get away with not using the upper deck. Mine just arrived today, and I'm going on vacation tomorrow, so my build will have to wait, but I'm thinking different body, and just a flat plate and go fro...

I'm not seeing them.
maybe you got the last ones

I emailed Kyo USA to see if they ship direct to me in Canada.
although weirdly getting stuff from USA to here is more expensive, and indeed slower than from Japan or China

remove the diff and put a spool in there instead

I got a reply from Tower saying basically that until they know what sort of demand there would be, they won't actually be stocking spares (or indeed hop ups) for the Scorpion. So, this started my search for where to get them. So far the only place I've found with some stock is Banzai. Anyone got any...

lets race them indoor at Airdrie Rod !!

that's more like it !
much nicer than the other J Concepts one.
doesn't hurt that it's in BK colours too

mine is on it's way. But my plan was to build as we did back when these cars were competitive, and ditch the tub. so, it won't be yellow Might order a Black tub though as if nothing else I could restore my old beetle with that :) I'll only really be running it indoors anyway, so I don't need the spl...

Yay mine shipped from Tower today.
I'm also thinking of getting some hop ups.
UJs seems like a good idea based on what guys are saying about the dogbones
