Re: Kyosho now on the re-re bandwagon - Scorpion

I went with the 490 from Banzai, didn't do the brushless mainly because I'm not familiar with it.
I still use nicad and nimh, I know lipo is the way to go, but still happy with the old way.

Sounds like you will have a nice build, we will need to see pics :)

Just received my shipping conformation!

Re: Kyosho now on the re-re bandwagon - Scorpion

SAWEET!
I had hoped that $24.99 was the price on the shocks, they were listed at that for several days.
Of course they were not in stock.
Is the image from an email?

Re: SRB Hop Up Pics & Info Thread

Received 3 of these last week.
Race Prep Aluminum Wings, in my opinion the best looking of the wings available at the time.
Will use 1 on an SRB, the other 2 will be used on vintage Scorpions.

Re: SRB Hop Up Pics & Info Thread

RCH motor part number "1800". It's a fully modified Igarashi mill. - Bearings at both ends. - The endbell locking tabs have been removed and the yellow tape holds the endbell in place. - A flat has been ground on the pinion end of the shaft for the grubscrew to seat properly. I don't know...

Re: JR-RC Bad Vendor

That's good to hear, hopefully his parts will show up. You would think he could at least let the guy know what is going on though. I ordered quite a bit thru the years from him and always received my parts, some took longer than others. It is aggravating when you don't know if or when you will get y...

Re: SRB Hop Up Pics & Info Thread

yep, I have a RCH front sway bar in the pack, it comes with the sway bar and zip ties.
Not much to it compared to the rear bar.

Re: JR-RC Bad Vendor

Well that sucks.
Ordered a couple of things from him last weekend.
Did you pay with paypal?
Hope you can get your $$$ back.
Read a few bad stories on TamiyaClub about him too, of course after I payed.
I tried emailing him asking a question and never got a reply.

SRB Hop Up Pics & Info Thread

Was talking with J-sou about SRB hop ups, and the lack of pics and information on the web. What is out there is scattered about, thought it would be cool to have a spot for them here. Would also be neat to see pics of SRB's from back in the day in race trim. If you have any hop ups, racers etc.. let...

Re: we all have big toys too don't we? show off your ride!

A couple of my Firebirds, lousy pics, but all I could find on this pc.
Don't have any of my GTO, it's been apart a long time, the birds both need some work, the Formula was my driver a few years ago.
Lost my desire to work on them, I think it is coming back!
