Another set of tyres for this weekend

FW05RR has been back to action for 3 weekends ! but tyres diameter has a lot of impact to its speed. First round was satisfied but since there was a malfunction bearing on one of rear hub which caused the tyre to become cone shape, truing down the tyre diameter (down to 60.5mm) has a direct impact to the car mid and top speed performance on 2nd and 3rd weekend. 


I was running 35/37 but it is out of stock now, so try 32-40/40 in next meeting. 

Awesomatix A800 -> MMC conversion kit

Something hard to find now.


It can translate my oldest original A800 to midship layout.

More Xray T4

This time it is a T4 20' and 21'


Both flex alloy chassis version.




ARC A10 23' #1

Another brand, similar design ...


But, its build quality surprise me - it is the very first time I built ARC kit altho I have bought a few over the years. 

Ball bearings are high quality, moving parts are smooth, anti-roll bars adjustment is easy, front and rear drive shafts are all pre built ...

Spent few hours each day over 3 days - it is almost done - only pending ESC installation, basic setup and body shell. 
I have been enjoying the build.


Another set of 1/10 TC setup tool

Used the ArrowMax 4D for over a years with my new and old TC, it is working well but just one issue - some of the modern TC has adjustable caster - and some brand of kit - the pointer for caster is long and cannot fit well on the 4D.
Hudy setup tool is much higher - and possibly can fit in well.

A pair of F-86A from Clear Prop

Clear Prop 1/48 and 1/72 on the same subject



Funbox 1/12 C44

Funbox is a new name to me - not sure if it exists for long time or it is really new to the market.

Its first release of F1 kit - a 1/12 and a 1/20 version of C44

I have first received the 1/12 version, the box is BIG !
