targetingxmod Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) Hi! Some friends gave me their Kyosho Turbo Scorpion as a gift, or go to the garbadge...so i taked it as a gift! -I removed the 1985 eletrics and kept only the servo for steering, and brushed motor! Installed a cheap GoolRC esc and some tx/rx i have laying around the house... It moves... -Did a 2 hours maintenance on the front, cause it as ugly and out of balance/maybe crashed a few times...and shocks were not working proprely! -Painted the front bumper in black! And grease everything like a mad man...and nows suspension works, actually dam GOOD! I also cooked that ESC (not on video), my fault...lol (inserted plasticine on the rear diff to have some lock action, but the dam diff is open and works with the motor) puted to much stress on ESC and she gave up! Well...excuse for better eletronics now! I have the body...but don't know if going to paint it or keep it as it is! Actually is very stock, just needs a clean up! Later!

mond Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Looks in great condition. Remember Kyosho now sells all the spares for that and beefed up gears. I run a 3800kv Brushless in my Beetle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 That is awesome. Always wanted one of those, ...I definitely think it should be lovingly restored to it's former glory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
