  1. Ummm no.... anything kyosho is fragile compared to mainstream basher... The og mad van had its share of issues relating to the driveline... I don't see this being any different .... besides... it'll sell in low numbers.... and become relegated to ebay in 10 years time for spares. And that's from a former kyosho collector that adores the brand..🤣
  2. Aye... she shifts for a 40 year old rig...still rocking the og motor too... She's on her way over the water now to its new owner in the USA
  3. Yeah dude.... it just floated .. apparently very bouyant. 🤣👌
  4. Here's an old kyosho truck. Hailing from 1982, this vintage model is incredibly rare. I will soon be embarking on a little restoration to get her running once more. Here's a little video showing the hunt for information was a little fraught in itself.
  5. It was a great way to spend a few days that's for sure.... Roll on September ...biggest and best uk rc event... maybe even some of the msuk haters will turn out...🤣👍
  6. Here's the footage from the sst mini ....the smaller of the 2 bi-annual events from the sst charity
  7. New lower price and trailer included. 90 and postage is free... or SWAPS... try me .. To see this body being used last week copy and paste this link into Google or YouTube ; https://youtu.be/1QVdCA3IwFs This auction is for a bespoke made to order land rover series 2 full alloy rc body including steel structural roll cage, beadlock wheelset and trailer Let's start with the body. The body itself is made from alloy, and features an integrated steel roll cage, aswell as 3d printed parts. The body has been used a handful of times over the last month or two since I got it and has recently been round the sst quarry ... I have painted it .. Its used and has marks etc....but overall its still very usable as you can see, wheelbase is roughly 460mm so can fit on a scx6 with work The wheels and tyres . These are also roughly 3 months old....but they have been glued together after I span the tyres off them a few times... due to this spinning off.. I had a small rip occur too... so as I say they have since all been glued.... also... the tiny hex screws are a nightmare and a lot of the have been rounded out somewhat .... but.... they are completely functional as they are ... they're actually a really capable tyre and wheelset...they're just not very suited for the terrain I run on as they're super soft.... . Just to be clear, you are buying the used body and wheelset, the chassis and truck underneath is not included in sale. Diy fun trailer included Thanks. * dimensions see pics Wheelbase roughly 460mm Width roughly 310mm Length roughly 600+ mm Proper 1/6 width. Price is 90 fir body, wheels and trailer...or swaps...
  8. A friend bought it off me at the sst mini
  9. It's basically the same setup as a tesla dual motor... Whereby the front and rear axle have their own gearbox and motor, the wheels used above are just a bit of fun... they're for the next build which I'll be starting next week. See more here amigo. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLoRRE2jmrkTHTrlNBJ7yNCPoSkOaE8QO
  10. There will be a small sized scale setup at the sst mini... I'm essence its juts abstaining run for September... at the main event there will be much more as always. I kinda did have fun as my daughter evie helped me a lot with this stuff
  11. I daren't ask for fear of the answer...😆
  12. Yes 600 sterling...plus shipping. Martin once spent 4k having a mold made then cf body after .... And people used to moan about spending 150 a body with me...... 🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆
  13. These are 100% carbon fibre and kevlar composite... they're are not skinned or wrapped plastic.... I have skinned the inside of a kraton for someone before in bloodred weave ...but... I don't make these anymore.... There's only 2 folk left that make composite bodies now... Martin R and Xifo S... they'll do a full cf body for you like these above.. Total cost about £600. Happy hunting
