Schumacher FT9 FWD #4 (Completed)

 

Tamiya F350 chassis completed and first outdoor test

Paired it with a FlySky i6 radio which was meant for airplane, I like its simple design and user interface - plus one of the button on top has 3-stage which is perfect for 3-gear shifting.

Bodyshell has yet to be done, tested run with a LRP 5200HV pack for like 10-15 mins around my home. 

The chassis has been built like 15 years ago, if not more. After the run, there are few areas to fix :

1. gear shift servo link is loosen

2. Front right leaf spring connector gone

3. Steering servo is locked at its full turn position

This is not a limited edition and only released about a decade ago, but it is so hard to find a NIB.
