I've got four votes! The messages must be working!









Meanwhile, in another dimension..........

I'm really sorry for your loss Dadio, it's always difficult saying goodbye to a pet that has been a part of the family for any length of time. We used to live in Alabama a few years ago and there was a shelter nearby that had a pretty high euthanasia rate. Before we even moved down there, a friend o...

On the PC1 the red light comes on when you connect the pack and press the button then the green light comes on when it peaks. I assume the PC3 is the same but haven't tried it.

Got too focused on anodizing and just realized never gave any updated body pics. Pics were taken before anodizing was started. I had sprayed the Tamiya PS31 tint and removed the protective film. Still have a few items to work on and a few parts on their way. But it's getting a lot closer to being do...

That is an impressive build Steve! 50lbs! That took some time and patience to complete. It deserves to be included!

Had one of those "memory" picture pop up on my facebook feed today. First pic was me about 10 years ago at 403 lbs 😬 Picture below it is me today at 213lbs (190lbs lighter). Sometimes I wonder if I had not made the lifestyle changes I made over the past 10 years if I would even be around t...

The Kyosho Rev series motors were intended for boats and planes. The marine motors feature water cooling while the plane motors have fan cooling. I have here a Rev300T. There was also a Rev300S. It's an interesting motor to look at as it appears to be a 550 size motor but has a 540 armature. If you ...

Gathering parts to rebuild my original Optima ... Has an original Option house belt conversion . Going to update to the "new" transmission, just for the slipper and 48 pitch gears. ANd picked u p an original one-way for the front . Will post soon .

I just put up a comment in the chats about being able to enter on another month following a win. I must admit last year i won January and immediately regretted entering as i had no zest towards BOTM for the rest of the year. In the meantime i built several cars and then had to pick which one to ente...

Just realised i had forgotten to update this build thread for a while... It turns out Samurai tyres have an inside and an outside tread. All these years and i never knew. The wonky squares go to the outside. The wider rears are the same. I wonder whether there is any grip difference if fitted incorr...

Hey guys, Been a long time since I posted something up on the forum. Today, I will share the resto I did on this near mint Turbo Optima Mid. This is the car as I got it from a buddy of mine: https://www.kyosho-optima.com/optimaphotos/KYOSHO_TURBO_OPTIMA_MID_RED/TurboOptimaMid-Red12.jpg https://www.k...

Back in the days I had one Hot Trick car. My Tamiya Fox got a full Hot Trick conversion, resulting in a dramatic change of appearance, a debatable upgrade in driving characteristics - and confusion of threads in my screw box. Today I have several Hot Trick conversions where two are runners – a Fox a...
