Re: Ishipla Monster
Regarding the front shock mount being close to the Scorpion one - Yes, but no cigar.
The Monster might take the prize for the buggy with the longest rear wheel shafts

Re: Ishipla Monster
I noticed that inside the rear wheels there was a long alloy sleeve over the axle.
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Re: Ishipla Monster
Fronts and rears both were. I took them off for now but yeah- if it was preassembled they did it wrong
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

Re: Ishipla Monster
This is the kind of cars my local hobby shop in the sticks would always carry, the Monster, the SG coyote, the Aristocraft collection(Kangaroo/Dolphin/Wildebeast) and the Traxxas The Cat. Never a competition buggy no RC 10 no Kyosho or Tamiya products. When the Traxxas Bullet came out it was the only almost competition buggy they carried. Hence I lived out of a Tower Hobbies Catalog all my youth.

Re: Ishipla Monster
I just came across this AYK Buffalo and thought holy crap, that looks like the back of a Monster!

Re: Ishipla Monster
I think the sequence of events ran like this , first came the Kyosho Scorpion , this had it's rear end "heavily inspire " the rear of the AYK Sidewinder and then the Buffalo , some time after that Ishipla copied the Buffalo rear but ran out of money so grafted it to a Grasshopper front end .Frankentruck wrote: ↑Fri Nov 03, 2023 10:30 pmI just came across this AYK Buffalo and thought holy crap, that looks like the back of a Monster!
