Zerda unchained

Oh my god it works. Stop voting, I made a mistake. I meant: Yokomo unchained. Go! Go! Go!

This month I won't be congratulating the winner, but condoling the 2nd. How hard it must be to lose with such a lead over the rest of the field. Two individual ideas have been realized here in a particularly impressive way. Thank you both for sharing these builds.

Black rims. Black cells. Black soul? Sure. Since The Fall Of Old Tekin / Kevin Orton Story is my favorite thread, I wanted to build a RC that pays homage to K.O. I wish he would see my build and enjoy it. For those wo don't know it: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=22700 I find myself in som...

There are almost no pictures of this rare device on the net. If someone owns one today, I would be happy to see a recent photo of it. The scanned material is from 1991.

Regenerative braking? Very interesting question. The Tekin 410K is more or less the industrialized production model of the Force mach 7. So I checked Tekin manual: "The 410K also features technology to that allows the batteries to be charged while braking. When applying brakes, the energy gene...

On my Cat 2000ec, which i unfortunately sold eight years ago, was a sticker of the friendly cat with no hat but sunglasses. Sorry for the poor quality, I had to zoom in deep into old pictures.

Some say, Tekin ESCs have the best punch from the start. Now i believe it too.

Congrats Kevin. Your electronics are still fine enough for a one-two finish. And we have all had great builds.
I'm pleased that I have met the taste of many here. I wish all those who were less fortunate good luck next time. May we all compete together again in december!

I sacrificed this incomplete Kyosho Optima Mid Custom Special to make the broken Lazer Alpha runner in the background drivable. I had to choose one car or the other and I'm not sure if I made the right choice but the upper deck on the Optima is so supercustom-veryspecial that it put me off saving th...

This Grasshopper II has not seen a single tuning part since it was first assembled. The mounts for the front bumper have broken off and the battery cover has been lost. Cable ties hold the Varta RSH 1200 battery in the chassis. Thanks to the worn and hardened first set of tires, I can drift wonderfu...

I was really curious to see what GrePo was going to enter. I was almost sure it was going to be the world's roughest, most abused Yokomo 🤣 The world's roughest Yokomo failed without a chance against the Hopper in an internal preliminary decision. The only thing I can do with it now is to dress it u...

Thanks for your appreciation! I'm sure it would feel right at home next to your Hotmess Hornet.
