I dont drive any of my cars that have an MSC fitted. I think I’ve only got 4 or 5 cars with an MSC. “Vintage” ESC’s cost so much these days, so if I can complete a car with the MSC I do

Getting closer to assembly https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53455017210_3997292a32_k.jpg Whilst the underside of the chassis is in very good condition, the topside not so much. Electronics had been CA glued in place, and using acetone, I was able to remove it all, but the chassis was well marked ...

Well, today was an awesome day as far as parts for the MX-4 go. I went back to the LHS who I got the parts above from, as I found I needed a couple other parts that they had in stock, and whilst searching through the box of “ZM” parts, I spotted something, and then I spotted something else. There ri...

See XLR8's post on page 5 of this thread.
But I don't see any Yokomo parts?

That is referring to FanRC parts at TeamKNK? Its the Rubrix Racing site in particular that isn’t working for me, wondering if something has happened to the site

RUBRIX Racing carries a lot of FAN RC’s products for those that don’t use Facebook like me https://www.rubrixracing.com/

Sorry if I’m derailing the thread, Anyone else having issues with this website, it’s stopped working for me?

I may not ever be able to assemble it if I wait for all the parts as the ZM672-1 and ZM672-2 inner and outer slipper plates are proving impossible to find. Still need to do a bit of work on the chassis plate with some polish, and waiting on some critical components to arrive, then I may be able to m...

Not yet, will wait for the last part to be finalised. Gave Paul the last bit of info he needed for it, so should be added soon

I've been in regular contact with BezerkRC, for those interested they have now added the carbon parts to their website, available in plain weave in both gloss and matte, or twill weave in matte. Paul is still working on the battery strap so that will be added soon. https://bezerk.com.au/mx-4-parts/

Kyosho Pegasus - original body painted on the outside

Some before and after pics of my Hobby Shed. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49408064247_6e81b88720_k.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49407384358_501dfe1488_k.jpg It was like that for around 10 years, then there was this global pandemic that caused lots of lockdowns and isolation periods...

Thanks for that, but like with everything currently, the shipping to Australia is over $50 making it too expensive. But thanks anyway, will still watch that

I ordered the ZS507, boy its tiny, hopefully its the same. Its the rear diff/pulley thrust bearing

My bearings arrived today so was able to complete the rebuild, I’m pretty satisfied with the finished car, dunno if its a keeper or one to move on, will sit it up for a bit and see how I feel about it Test fitted the body before the rear end went back together https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/534...

When I say 13 years, I mean I bought this 13 years ago, but only just decided to rebuild it. I sourced some bearings and used everything else that came with the car. The only thing that hasn’t gone back into it is the Lemans 480T, That has been cleaned up and is on display with some others. How the ...
