Stinger MKII Rebuild

I have had my Kyosho Stinger MKII stripped down to the last screw for a few weeks now. I needed shock oil, and diff grease before I could start to rebuild. The car has had quite some use and It took me quite a lot of work just to get the parts moderately clean. Unfortunately, after having worked on ...

AYK RX3000

Hi All. I've come across this car for sale but I know nothing about it. I like the looks and simplicity of the 1/12 on-roaders, and I've been passing on an R/C12e which looks heavily used, and/or aged, and has a horribly painted body, all red, including all windows. The car I've found now is a NIB A...

Removing rust from turnbuckles

I wanted to share my results after trying a couple of methods for removing rust from some turnbuckles. A few I dunked in vinegar overnight along with some ball ends. Another few I turned in a drill while scrubbing them with a fine wire brush. Both methods worked and both have stripped the parts from...

Re: RC10 Chassis Sale

My only consolation is knowing there are two NOS RC10s at a local hobby shop which no one here seems interested in, and which I could probably pick up at any time if I wanted to.

Re: AYK RX3000

Thanks. Yes I’ve been researching the 1/12 AYKs lately, and the RX2000 is definitely also my favorite. But the chances of coming across one are pretty slim. The axle diff is available for sale locally also, but I haven’t gone for it yet. I did, however, get my hands on the RX3000 Porsche 953 which I...

Re: New from UK, Nitro 10 Mk3 engine help

Hi. I got one of these in a lot of incomplete cars. Actually I’m not sure what MK it is. The Irvine 15R in it was completely seized. I’ve disassembled it as far I could and it’s been sitting in kerosene for months now. I should check on it one of these days. Fortunately the lot also included an idén...

Re: Tamiya lot find

I think your wrong about guys here not knowing the prices or trends as you say. There are lots of guys here that collect tamiya, kyosho, marui, yokomo etc... Take a look through the different forums. Hmmm, I could be wrong, but I don't think many users here are familiar with how things are in Argen...

Re: “Blueprint” Scorpion!

Came across this thread on account of my new found interest in kyosho Scorpions. This is an absolutely brilliant idea, build and result. Truly inspired and inspiring at every step. From reversing the gearbox, through the cage work, the parts selection, the problem solving and craftsmanship, to the p...
