Next TC Projects ??

It took me a while to learn and completed Yokomo BD11 and I ran the kit since 2024. 

Understand more about modern TC, and in 2025, I have built BD12, X4 (original 2022 version) and TA08R. 

What is next ? 

PR Racing V4TR #1

Started this kit years ago when it first released. But never finish it.

Pick up again and restart the project.

Where it was :

And some progress today :

Tamiya 1/10 .12 Engine

Found this engine to be perfect match for the TG10 mk 2 !

Tamiya TA08R #3

Chassis setup done and body shell prepared

Cannot recall which bodyshell is it. It might be one of those from Ride in old days.

Tamiya TA08R #2

Found an Sanwa 971 servo - possibly bought 10+ years ago, not high torque at all in today standard. However, should be good enough for running blinky mode. At same time, also found the control 13.5 motor for TITC 2014 in my storage. It is Orca TI. Hence, decided to use it on TA08R project. 

So far the build has been smooth, parts are considered small in my previous Tamiya RC kit experience but not that bad compared to previous Yokomo and Xray projects. I was told Awesomatix would be the ultimate challenge in term of part size ... I keep this in mind and will have to try one to believe. 

Next is the ESC. I found an Orca VTC TC spec ESC, it has a large footprint hence leave a little place for the receiver. Flysky receiver just fits in nicely. Soldering job done on a Sunday morning. 

I started this build on Monday, managed some hours to contribute to the project after office and by Sunday evening, it is mostly done.

Next is the bodyshell preparation and paint work, chassis setup and then test run !

Switch and race game

New to Switch, and started with a Mario racing game.

FWD fever

Got the latest FWD - X4F 26' and FT9

Especially X4F, seems to be a complicated build. Not what I had built since the Tamiya FF03 time.
