My bearings arrived today so was able to complete the rebuild, I’m pretty satisfied with the finished car, dunno if its a keeper or one to move on, will sit it up for a bit and see how I feel about it Test fitted the body before the rear end went back together https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/534...

All the decals placed.
Still no esc or receiver but looking pretty good.

I think I’m going to call this one done for now. Decided not to solder or cut any electrics. Just placed them and tied up the wiring. Went with a new Futaba S9101 steering servo. Dyed a new set of AE servo mounts black for that. Went with the new Novak 410-HPc Hyperfet ESC a new Novak NER3FM RX Trin...

My friend Johann from Down Under, sent me some pictures today about what he is trying to do... And he precise there is still some work on the graphics, and it is just a V1 as here is still some pixellisation here and there on the graphics... https://i.imgur.com/kZ1QVbA.jpg https://i.imgur.com/f6lvNK...

Finally, the electrics are installed as neatly as possible. There's not a lot of room in these chassis'. Everything clears the main driveshaft. I've just got the parts needed in the post for the last tuning option. Hopefully, the Coyote will be finished and running mid-January.

Follow the build thread if u want a good, funny read on a cold afternoon! This is my favorite rc, it really gets your adreline going when u run it...

This is a recreation of my late 80s Blackfoot. I put it back to the specs i raced it like back than, including the Lemans 240ST motor. It was the golden era of rc and this was one of my more memorable rc vehicles. Display body includes 5 coats of automotive clear. Messenger_creation_219B7354-C3BD-49...

Finished the last improvement today. Knocked up an undertray from 0.5mm PETG. It won't help performance, but I think it's necessary considering the position of the cells. They can take an awful lot of hits from debris if you aren't using a full width chassis. 1.jpg Fitted. Bloody marvellous I reckon...

Dusted these guys off, Parma Ski Tiger with a modern hardware set up, and my old H&M No Step 2 P mono race boat. Trying to encourage myself to do a little boating in the near future.

Got this 2017 from the UK Brief history Hpi introduced this car in 1996 after the release RS10G in 1995 In 2002 Atsushi Hara was winning the Japanese Nationals 1/12th scale class using a RS12G, some years after being discontinued.

Got the driver height corrected. https://i.imgur.com/8CMS0b4.jpg Despite the helmet, without any iris or pupils painted on, he's merely Born to be Mild.

This is a custom chain drive Tamiya Frog. Be sure to zoom in on the pics to see all the details. It has an ultra tall gear ratio with this setup. The B&R that was originally chosen for the build just didn't have enough torque, so in went a Lemans 550 360ST unit. It worked perfect. It is not just...
