After the bodyshell, I decided to extend a bit the chassis project: create a forked version of the project with no dependancy on Kyosho EF-209 Fantom rear shaft, with the target to allow more people to access this chassis and to print it. For that, I decided to use a long M3x70 full threaded screw a...

Soldered up the esc for the indoor car....

I needed a statement color for the next step of this project, which will turn in my first very own design... Bright orange will go nicely with a black Kydex chassis https://i.imgur.com/NrmLg6V.jpeg The nut in the deep area of the upright is used to control the centering of the screw. The fit is tigh...

It's more work than most people imagine to organize files in a proper way before a pulication... https://i.imgur.com/amvHIvy.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/5cPoI2q.jpeg Specially considering that it was required to do something so it is easy to build (or at least not too complex - not everyone is a puzzle...

After the chassis, it is time to work out the bodyshell accessories...


And there is a lot of screws...


(and that is just the first one, I have other bodyshell to accessorize...)

And I just published the accessories set for the bodyshell (BL2909 Turismo WSC par Sabula tech).

Does it say which model it is? Just curious what sort of brushed power house you got.

That is a lot of RPM. Thing is a beast.

Very cool! First post seems like it's wide open.....Can I come up from Cotignac/FR and play!? Pan car (1987/88), Brushed motors, Novak OG electronics, 75mhz AM Futaba Magnum Sr., running brand new 2500mAh Panasonic SCR saddle packs.

Perfect!!!! I'll keep my eyes open for when registration starts! Although, was planning to get my ffvrc license anyway....hopefully I can get a few warm up runs done at Marseille Mini Models in advance. Thanks for this post! Looking forward to meet you and others at the event. There is two nice tra...

First test assembly.
Since the car came with a home made alu front beam, I hade nothing to make a copy in carbon from.
So I ordered from Fibre-Lyte. They only supply in woven carbon compated to the original carbon that has no visible fibers.

My builds are quite involving, and they are taking time : on this one it reached another level. Not a single original part was used. Lot of 3D prints and home made parts, some replacemnt parts widely available, and we have a *not* Zerda, and it took about 2 years and a half to get there between the ...

Watched all the old videos on this event...totally looking forward to this!!...will register tomorrow. Silly question...and probably already know the answer, but it's been 36years since I raced...lol! The available pit areas looks small and that's ok....can I count on pit space and electricity or do...

Once in a lifetime photo?

Started to play a bit with Makera CAM... I decided to prepare the file to cut another pancar 1/12 chassis... This is fairly easy, as I did this already in another CAM software (Galaad) to cut one using the CNC machine at the fablab. Makera CAM is fairly intuitive, and that is easy. https://i.imgur.c...
