I'm sure some of you are familiar with Time Tunnel, and the awesome work TanaTwo puts into his clean builds. I love the pics in the link below...gorgeous re-re scorpions out on the track! http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/tanatwo1970/69200455.html I did a quick google on tqtoshi that is mentioned on tanatwo's blog, and this page below popped up... Erm, make sure your wife or significant other has left the room because there is VIDEO! 2nd vid and the HX-A500 vid (scroll way down the page) are sweet. The 4wd Scorpion Beetle makes an appearance at 4:00 min in the HX-A500 vid. http://sky.ap.teacup.com/applet/tqtoshi/201408/archive Here's some translation of Katakana that may help some google searches スコーピオン = Scorpion トマホーク = Tomahawk スコーピオンミーティング = Scorpion Meeting Jコンのタイヤ = J-concepts tire ラジコン = Raji Con or Radio Control モーター = Motor タイムトンネル = TimeTunnel Cheers, -Matt -
Toykid, I love your work, and always wished Tamiya made something like this. The dual rear dampers are the biz, but maybe you could take some inspiration from Trezas Kikaku's builds. http://trezas-kikaku.blog.so-net.ne.jp/archive/c2300853540-1 Just my opinion, but your shocks are a bit too vertical. Making rear swing arm shock mounts like this will give them a nice angle. -Matt

When I lived in the Netherlands I saw many 2CV's around my neighborhood. Even my son, who was about 3 at the time, knew what they were and pointed them out. Very cool and challenging project! You've made a cracking good start
