Hi, I got a tip regarding a Junior T for a reasonable price and from a neighbour country here in Europe. I bought it thinking it would be a nice pile of parts. It turns out the truck has never been run. Not a scratch anywhere. I guess it is a late one since it has the white front bulkhead and a ligh...

If you're after home-made... check out this witchcraft before your very eyes then..... Ian Mullaney over in the UK has taken it upon himself to save space in his ProCAT for vintage class racing by building an esc into his chassis.... :shock: He just sent me the pics to post up on here. The guy is a ...

Today, I started something... For the small story, I had a Kyosho 1/12 back in the eighties, it was 4WD, there was a chain, and a one way at the front, and a prototype body... I did not have a proper place to run it at that time, so it was sold almost once build, and I did not really run it. When I ...

A bit late about this... Due to the fact I wanted to use white as background on the bodyshell, I decided to use liquid mask https://i.imgur.com/tKWUSOM.jpg I have 2 hobby knifes designed to be used with the index, I will try those for this (my wife had those for scrapbooking, found the idea being go...

I did run my Fantom and the Spider Touring Force TF-3 this week-end in Macon on a nice on road track with nice curves and a long straight line... https://i.imgur.com/4MB4BIR.jpg There was a lot of fun on this week-end with a lot of vintage rc passionate people. Stands of the site were full. Expositi...

This is sort of a branch off from the Mini Jrx2 thread. Jeff pointed me to some Traxxas Hawk cad files and being as the hawk was my first performance RC I have been considering making a mini version of it as I have been designing all these parts for the Mini Jrx2. I printed off a test chassis but wh...

Just thought I would park this here heh.

Yogurt from Spaceballs says: "Upsee-dahzee, upsee-mahzee, upsy-daisy!" The files have been uploaded, I have tried to replicate the precision of the rear toe blocks as close as I possibly can, #1 would be the 'stock' one to use as a stock build with the H arms. I would (and have) oriented t...

Just did this up for a reference as there is no listing anywhere. This is not all the screws, but it is good for basic reference. side bulkhead to chassis m2x8 flat head link to side bulkhead/rear carrier m2x8 socket head battery box to chassis m2x8 flat head battery box hinge m2x10 socket head ante...

Some video of this running last weekend. Drove real nice. It would be great to see it on a real track. I think it would be extremely competitive.

So I couldent resist. I bought the red one, Figured as it's my first ever Losi!.. I have a few mods in mind. Swapping the wheel nuts for white nylone. Thinking of painting the receiver/esc case orange. Try to source mini-T 1.0 springs. I've ordered JRX2 decals and panel decals in 1/16 scale from MCI...

I dont know if I will follow through on this or if it is just a 3d modeling exercise, but I have been modeling RC10 parts and trying to translate them to 1/16 scale. I do not have any front arms anymore apparently so I had to find some parts on yeggi (the grey ones). In the picture is the model next...

Update on the 1/16 scale Team Losi JRX2. Painted the rx/esc orange. Was not able to swap the negative motor wire to a blue one as the rx/esc is filled with epoxy. Deans conector. Fabricated a front bumper out of 1.5 millimeter Kydex. White nylon wheel nuts. And a couple of stickers. I figure the cha...

I'm putting together a kit for a friend that wanted one to try out at a track. He convinced me to add some side skirts to mostly match the shape of the the gold pan tub so he could attach the body with Velcro insted of drilling holes in it. The kit is just about ready to send his way. I just need to...
