OPTIMA Kyosho with scorpion trailing arm PRP

Post by prp »

Hi guy,

After I see the Optima of Daryl Lane with the trailing arm, I want to made one,
but I used the Scorpion trailing arm, with handmade nylon part.
I make my best to made the same as Daryl,all the châssis parts are in graphite.

Very clean, interesting, well-executed mod. I'm not sold on trailing-arm suspension though, but I can appreciate different just for the sake of being different, I love uniqueness and "doing your own thing". 8)

Thanks guys, I must with Daryl is receiver,esc,7 cells and servo implantation...

The body he used is a Proline for RC10, but it's a bit hard I never see one on the bay...

Maybe TBG can make a repro :mrgreen:
