Just got this thing running

Changed out the RX and charged some old Nicads. Ha! might have to keep the old thing to run at the local track in the vintage race
Although, it IS a Kyosho, so I'd prolly spend more time in the PITS!!!
Now to just figure out how to get that servo on the wing working

Yes - I reckon you will be fighting them off in the pits - there will be so many people impressed with its awesomeness.
Comments like - "how can something that looks so darn awesome be so darn quick as well......Jeeez Kysoho really are the best" - will be heard.
Cheers
Darryn
P.S - I like Kyosho!!

I know I speak on behalf of all the RC10 fanatics when I say: "I
LIKE it!"

Goatless, never say gone,as 20 or 30 years ago there was no internet, our old cars sold are usually near home.
I had recovered my early Lazer ZX , sold to a newcomer in 1991 to buy the then "new" ZX-R , and after some searching I located the owner and bougth it in 2010 just as i sold it 19 years before, only a one-way pulley and his nut missing. Owner lost this parts and car was put aside in a box for decades until I appear calling at door with a picture of me with the car . Was a nice day. I offered the same amount that traded it in 1991 and car came home with me. I was very very happy.

Looks like a lazy way to limit down travel with zip-ties

Funky servo use for the wing too!

And you should have your work cut out for you if want to adjust under a race! But it’s a cool fetcher…

Oh yes, especially knowing I don't have 1 cent invested!
