A tribute to Jammin Jay's RC10 appearance during the RC10 Classic release
Vision: built with only current hop-ups when it was released, run it to get some dirt on the tires, then shelf it in front of the poster of his car with the bowl trophy, which is how it sits in the showcase.

Kyosho Quad Rider EV "Electric Version"
Modernized with a Kyosho LeMans Brushless 2000KV 17.5T motor, and 240S ESC. Running Futaba 2.4GHZ and a 2S LIPO 2000KV 35C battery. Bent new handlebars out of brass tubing to fix the old look at it wrong and they broke plastic ones
Parts are very difficult to find so I resisted the urge to make him stupid fast. I'll do a build thread if there's interest (took lots of pictures) in these cool old quads.
