Flying Point Pizazz

This came to me in a job lot, I had intended to sell all of it on but getting this running has been such a labour of love that I've decided to hang on to it :)

 

Other than a Savage which I never managed to get running properly, and quickly concerned to brushless, I'm new to nitro so it's been a steep learning curve, but I'm hooked! When it came to me, the EZ Start wasn't wired up and the engine felt very sticky. I gave it a few squirts of WD40 into the cylinder head and left to sit for a few days. While the WD40 was working its magic I started to rebuild the EZ Start

After some bodgery I managed to get everything wired up and it was time to attempt a first start. To my surprise, it fired up first time!! 

 

That brings us up to today. I finally found some time to tidy the wiring, replace the spur gear and generally give it a good clean. The shell is in great condition, I'm loving how this buggy looks

I'm just waiting on a receiver pack and another Flysky to receiver to arrive and then I'll be able to give it its first proper run....

 

Can't wait! :D
