Graupner Systems / Jetstream 800 NIB

[proffesso]

since drbelleville posted up his Cobra, got me inspired to show some of my boats

Graupner Systems Cat and a Jetstream 800, both NIB

managed to get the running gear for the cat, but found a nice Ultra 1200 motor, perfect period peice for bit of old school overkill. (the astro 05 is for the jetstream, it comes with a 360ST as default)

I remember the Jet Stream from the Tower catalogs. Kyosho had such cool graphics back in the 80s and 90s, that's a good looking boat.

Just wanted to let you know that Graupner had upgraded the Brushed Ultra series to include water cooling:

drbelleville - yeah, but its also 250 euro...bit too much for a shelfer if I end up finding one cheap, then i'd love one.


GJW - if you remember an Australian brand called "Full Ahead Model Marine" that did mostly IC hulls/hardware for racing, that was my grandfathers buisness. based out of melbourne quite old school now, closed up around 95' i guess.
