Wow! This is a great project. Amazing how clean and uncluttered your work area is compared to mine. My work area always looks like it was carpet bombed by B-52's when I'm working. :mrgreen:

I don't let it get too out of control, but I do clean up for the camera a bit :mrgreen:

I think the current plan is to make the noseplates, possibly towers, belts, and put the instructions together. I think Jake will be able to sell pulleys directly and the rest is all off-the-shelf

Wow! What did I miss?! Mini told me about this last night so i had to read the whole thread....awesome mate, truly awesome.

I was going to sell my new build worlds/team car hybrid but if you're going to package up and sell conversion kits then I'm IN and shall do a gomachv RC10x4!! Add me to that list (assuming you'll do an instruction manual too as I am pretty stupid :))

I also have a good supply of Kyosho parts and a new original stealth case which should help!

Well done again!

The "conversion" is a ways out still, the biggest hurdle now is figuring out pulleys. I love the ones seabass made but I'm not sure how hard it will be to get a bunch of em made. I can whip out the towers and plates are done...nose brace tubes are about the only thing I need to get going on. Oh, and getting thin belts cut!

I have decided this one is done. I have a few noseplates in purple and black, and can cut towers easily but I won't be "packaging" anything. Anyone that wants to build one just let me know and I'll help you with the ingredients

The last batch of anno arrived and this copper beauty is going purple to try to maximize its appeal on eBay 8)
