Yes Hally I saw the VanquishMG. It is surely a nice design, particularly the differential. Do you know if the Vanquish was already released, because the images are only 3D renderings?
I think the design will be OK for a slot car but I doubt the mounting of the motor is ideal for an R/C car. There is no room left to put the receiver and battery with this mid engine design, especially at that scale. I don't agree a Lexan body is necessary, in fact most of moulded plastics are solid enough for free running cars under the scale of 1:43 to endure shocks. On the Keyence, the plastic being 2mm thick is still very light and it gives such a small body the ability to run full throttle to a wall with no damages. That’s the same for Bit-Char-G unless you step on them they are relatively forgiving


Sure MTL as soon as a find another one because I want to keep this one stock and alive

Thanks QFM for the info

i asked the dealer about the vanguish and the worst thing is that it is 1:32 scale so the differential is to big for using in a 1:60 car
so i will make it like the opel and there i enough room for a 40 MHZ
receiver and Lipo 145 cell and a improvised servo and a few other things

Talking

I am afraid it is and that MCC Smart must be 1 inch long! These guys have fun driving on HO train dioramas... can you imagine, all that genius work ruined just because of a RR crossing at the wrong time
Look at the details on that small Opel...

Dux I'm afraid it is proportional and the coin there is 1 cent
the transmitter and receiver(including servo controller to use a normal rc servo and a speed controller included) will be available in dezember or next year it will cost minimum 60 euro!
Other parts receivers, controller with lighting, akkus, mikro motors from 4-12mm ,gears and they also build your dream car
but be carefull the prices are from 350€ to... they also want to build a standart modell series in february 2003.
The link of that shop is
www.mikroantriebe.de/


yes boys its a one cent coin it uses only 1 cell with 1.2Volts it is transformed to 3.3 volts by a elektronik

Unhappy I thought I was the coolest......

Here I was thinking that I was the only guy in the U.S. to own one of these things

I bought mine brand new in 1992 from Dave's Hobbies in Sacramento. I paid $300 back then!!

I cant believe you only paid $130 for yours!! I would not sell mine for under $500!!

Mine is the red Celica and I have kept it lovingly stored in a cool dry place for over 10 years.

fovea3d, we must get together and race!

-Todd

Wow Overlander!!! That Celica is beautiful I confirm you are probably the only guy in the US owning one, because I live in France-Europe That will make it difficult to get together for a race unless I go to Cali someday
I will not sell mine too... and even be more carefull when manipulating it knowing how rare they are now. What is the condition of your cell after 10 years, do you know your run time? Mine is less then 1 minute or 8-10 laps on a normal size desk at high speed. Its amazing they were on the market in 1992, I only knew there were discont. in '96.

I just ran mine for the first time in about 1 1/2 years. I got about 5 minutes of run time from the original 50MHA cel.

This thread got me interested in 1/87 RC and after some research, and several hours with Bablefish, I am almost done with the first TTTT (Table Top Trial Truck) here in the U.S.

Here is the beginning of the chassis
