HOTSHOT III
03-07-2016, 09:48 PM
This is my 1st foray into the world of vintage RC, I was as surprised as anyone when Schumacher started making Fireblade Evo bodyshells again :thumbsup:
Also I was just about to rebuild the stock shocks when I realised I had enough bits to make up a set of Kyosho small bores, so on they went instead!
No receiver ATM but the car is running an Alturn AAS752MG servo and LRP IPC V7.1 ESC mated to a Reedy Ti modified 7x2 brushed motor, with LiPo power and a slipper clutch it should sound like a bunch of 19-year-olds on a hen night "EEEEEEEEEEEE".
I built this car as a shelf queen but the shocks, slipper and having a brand new diff with TC balls and thrust bearing really make me want to run it!
