Nice!

They look similar to the white Kyosho Perfex servos.... except they haven't faded over time!

Agreed. As an added bonus, they likely have more torque and speed than an anemic Perfex servo as well.

These two are pretty slow and pathetic. At least one is metal gear.

Good chance my bedroom slippers have more torque and speed than Perfex servos..... if only they were white *sigh*...

It’s always the things I give up looking for I randomly stumble upon.

Finally got into the office after eye surgery, and picked up my box-o-motors..... 15 Flying Point bagged black silver can motors, all new and all very basic. Not even "Mabuchi" marked....

I was hoping these might be unbranded back-door Chinese Sport Tuned motors, but can't really tell anything from the outside. Will put one in a car over the weekend, and see if there's any performance. Might send one to a friend with a motor analyser, and get them to do a comparison with a Mabuchi silver can 540.

Deadpool body? No way, nice find!

Hasn’t arrived yet but scored this Edinger from ebay for $240 total. Includes 7ribbed front tires, kyosho mega motor (14x2 version I suspect), vintage Novak esc, plus the box in great condition, among other goodies. Condition of the car remains to be seen since seller was selling it for parts not working but did not know what was wrong with it. He didn’t mention any specifics in the listing so I don’t think he knew much. I’ll post update once I get it.

That looks to be a nice score. It doesn't appear to have had a hard life.

Yes treadwear is not bad, tires still have pins on them. I don’t see shock towers or A arms broken or anything. Only needs a good dusting and check transmission/shocks.

Some Astro tyres and foams for a couple vintage racers I’m building for Vintage Demo at Aus Nats later this year


Some clamp on hex’s and M0.6 pinions




And some JC Racing wheels for same vintage racers

Zed, you can order directly from their website. They ship to the US. Shipping times aren't too bad but its normal to take a little longer. Warning though, they have a lots of cool stuff so self control is advised!!!

Factory Works was stocking some JC Racing wheels and parts.

We were trying but the sales were really slow and unpredictable. When the big Indiana race happened at Hoosier RC I sent my stock to them, and I think they are now the place to go for JC parts in the USA. Worth reaching out for sure.

This is more like: What's not showing up in the post" today.

The Pro4 SC10 turned out to be a scam. Fortunately ebay refunded my purchase price and the seller has left the chat! I guess I will get back to rebuilding the belt driven SC10 4X4's

Very excited! I'm really glad I didn't go after the used, cracked up one that had been haunting me for months. Woohoo, more Factory Works goodness!
