Hello,

Thank you for accept me.

I'm Juk-Kyu Hwang from South Korea.

I started R/C from 1994 with Academy Rock buster.

My favorite brand is Tenth Technology. So I have two Predator XTs, Wide touring, two X10 and Streetwise.

Also I have Losi 22 2.0 and 22-4, Academy Wyvern, Rockbuster, Velox XT, Tamiya lunchbox, Kumamon, M05-RA, TL-01LA, Hylux,

Kyosho Scorpion, Madforce, Schumacher Procat, Tomy Celicar, Mugen MBX-5, Thunder tiger Silverfox, DIY RYUZ FF, and so on.

I'm also a member of Old R/C club in South Korea.

We hold Old Buggy Race 4 times every year.

My English is not that good, so maybe there is some problems to communicate, but I will try to deliver news in South Korea as many as I can.

Thank you!

Welcome, and don't worry about your English. It's better than a lot of people with English as their first language. Look forward to seein more builds from you. You have talent building that FWD buggy.

Yeah, and you've got a pretty sucky neighbor to the north! I saw the DMZ when I was over there... even went down into one of the tunnels... what a trip!

You are right. N Korea is also a sad history for Korea. I hope that they just keep quiet. :(

Welcome fellow wyvern owner. Not many of those around this forum. I hope to see some pics of yours and maybe learn some tricks for it?

Thank you!! Pohang is too far from Seoul.

It will be an honor for us if you join our vintage buggy race in YRC (Yong in) if you have time.

Have a good day!

I love Wyvern! It is so glad to see a Wyvern owner from here.

I was use Wyvern for Vintage buggy race several years ago, but she is disassembled for conversion.

I try to make a modern conversion for Wyvern, but it takes too long time.

I will upload some pics when I complete it.

Here is a render shot of Wyvern EVO. My own design :D

Here's mine with all the personal mods I could come up with.
I started a second one with a selfmade chassis for a longer wheelbase but it never got done.
Your pictures don't show for some reason. Do you have them published anywhere on the net?

I edit the link. Now you can see. :mrgreen:

Wyvern always looks cool.

Do you know that? You can buy a repro body for Wyvern on ebay.

I sent my unpainted brand new body to TBG, and they made it.

This is mine.

but she is completely disassembled now for extreme makeover :twisted:

Welcome aboard - you probably had the most amazing first post on the forum, ever. I had actually seen that Ryuz lookalike on oOple earlier, when I saw your name in that month's contest, I knew I should wait for the next round to enter :mrgreen:

Looking forward to seeing more of your builds :)
