Kyosho now on the re-re bandwagon - Scorpion

[TomEG]

BTW. You shouldn't happen to have a good picture of the Thorp rear sway bar, and how it is fitted?

Wow! Lasse to the rescue, again!
I just don't know how I missed that one on the rsb.se forum....

PS. Don't forget to check on the Tomahawk plates we talked about "over there".

Some close up slow mo track action with the Scorpion. Sorry its kind of long and repetitive but I'd already cut half the clips and didn't want to cut any more. Just stop watching if you get bored. Enjoy if you don't. I could watch these sorts of clips all day, maybe there's others out there similar.

If they end up re-re-ing the original Optima, do you guys think they'll make it belt drive?

Sexy vid - shows how underdamped/oversprung (like pretty much everything pre-RC10) cars from this era were!

That offroad racer look, though, man, looks like the real thing!

Thanks for sharing

I just ordered a Scorpion tonight (finally) $270AUD with free postage from Sydney which is around 200 k's from me.

Just wondering what steering servo would be suitable, Futaba S3003 maybe?

i'd step it up on the servo.

i've got a hitec 645mg (or a 625) in mine, pretty stout for a vintage car. cheap too.

[keithrc]

This one?

The 625 is faster!
