I like their helicopters, they fly great. I have no experience with the cars though.

Did you ever get a look at what scorpion or tomahawk parts you have left (used but usable)?
With MikeDealer not making progress on the tube frames I could be tempted at reconsidering the trailing arm project I had in mind

The Hirobo box is actually right inside the front door of the storage unit, I put some more Hirobo parts in it last weekend. As for the Tomahawk parts, that stuff is buried somewhere, not sure where.

Don't forget the Jealousy, one of the most collectable vintage r/c there are. Only 300 of them built and came with alloy suspension as standard.
