mcmaster carr also sells some cheaper fluoropolymer(teflon) sheet with an adhesive side, thin, too, so it's not too heavy. I remember looking at it when researching something recently.

Isn't that how it always begins...hey, a project car, kind of incomplete, let's get it and slowly pick up the parts to complete the car.

Darn, now I know what the car was missing parts, they are impossible to find....to the back burner, under the...

An SRT 'fell' into my possesion (different thread), and the stock steering parts 'fell' onto my TRX1, with custom extended SAE axles. I can run Re-re Worlds/B4 front bearing wheels with zero loss of width now & no rubbing.

That's actually pretty...

I bought my Son a T3 almost three years ago to replace his Tamiya Falcon. He needed something that was durable and was easier to find parts for. I originally set it up with a Novak XRS esc and a mild Kyosho 23turn modified motor. Top speed was...

Hi Peter,

That's how it goes.

You start with one and they grow by themselves. :!:

Pics please.

Cheers, Dave. :)

Grow by themselves. LOL. Pics tomorrow. I reckon I should start a proper thread and not hijack others.

Hi All

just thought I'd share a couple of pics of my Javelin brothers before they get parted.

I've bought them across the years as, well, I just could :) Since then they had sat on car stands on the shelves, but I hadn't done any work to them....

The only issue with transforming a Turbo Optima into a Javelin is finding the rollcage body!!.

thats a no pooper! Worse yet is trying to find 'parts' of the cage. I've found a complete cage but just couldn't justify the price when I only need the...

Hey guys...

Indulge me for a bit as I attempt to recapture a bit of my youth. Back around the summer of 1987 or so when I just turned 13 the Kyosho Javelin was the one car I wanted more than only other. Even when the Turbo Optima debuted, it was...

Thanks, Adam. When I plug in that tire diameter with the re-re Optima gearing, without changing the 61T spur gear anyway, it would seem either a 20T or 21T pinion would be very close to a 1.0 rollout. 20T = .996 ; 21T = 1.014 .

That said, the power...

Went Optima-hunting on ebay last week after I got my bonus from work, and, after being outbid by the same person twice, finally wrested this lot from his grasp:

One complete, scruffy, original Optima, and another basket-case that's missing a...

With the recent acquisition of a nice batch of Parts, I am forced to start over....AGAIN. I will be buidling one MOSTLY by the book (R/C10 Manual, (c) 1984 Associated Electrics, Inc :lol: ). The other I will put together with what I have at hand,...

Things to consider:

-Make sure the antenae isn't touching any metal.
-Doubling up the servo tape under the receiver, making it thicker and less resistant to vibration. perhaps a thin strip along the side touching the chassis as well.
-Check that...

It's been a while since I have been this motivated and in all honesty up until very recently I thought my interest in r/c had come to an end.

Camera looks better than my security cam. LOL.
Did the car want to do wheelies with it attached?

Suprisingly the car didn't wheelie. Mind you I am only running period electrics/batteries etc.. so it isn't a serious speed demon.
