This little fella looks familiar!! Passed through my ownership for a while when I got it off TC member Samson. Everybody's got to own at least one bug in their life - It looks like this is the one bug everyone's owning!!!

Well done on getting the Hotshot photo on Concorde's wing - that's quite something. Great thinking too, the first supersonic airliner is most definately a landmark.

Is that the new big shed to make room for all the rest of the cars you're going to buy? ;)

Tamiya orca, final year design project - 1996

I don't mind whether it's Tamiya or not but someone needs to make this car. It looks fantastic. I love the amphibiousness!

1980's kyosho catalogue pocket brochure part 2
richytanimal
Some great vintage Kyoshos in there. Most I've never even seen before. What's happened to them all? Wouldn't it be great if the Kyosho section on Tamiyaclub was split up into the individual models same as Tamiya so we could build up more information on these great looking cars too.

Cars look great - love this Minis. One question that somebody's got to ask so it might as well be me. Where's L375UBK?

Great photos - it's appreciated when people go to efforts to take good photos ( and not ones taken on the kitchen floor!! )

Stadium gator - ready to go!
Eddystone
Funny you mention that - This Gator is currently wearing a set of HPI Geolander tyres on gold HPI Super Star wheels - don't even need to change the uprights for longer ones with the Super Star wheels I found.

This seems a great idea. I'm giving a computer PSU a go as a power source for my HB GT Escape charger (the one that comes with an E-zilla). All seems well, it's happily charging two batteries together at 4Amps each. Thanks for inspiring me to try it out.

Kyosho used releasable tiewraps to keep the battery in place in a lot of their cars, such as the Optima and Ultima. Wouldn't be surprised if that's what you need for this one. I got some off eBay - work great, try item number 8042439396

Pretty rare these things - almost no mention of them on the whole internet. I've got one that I mean to get running, but I've sooooo many projects!!

Hi Sammy, I since had trouble with my charger falsely peaking - it seems you need to have a load on the 5volt supply to ensure you get a stable 12volt supply from a PSU, otherwise the supply voltage wavers enough to cause false peaks on sensitive chargers.

No danger of understeer with those front tyres I'd guess!

The Original Ultima - still my favourite car even after all these years. Looks great and drives great. Glad to see you appreciate them too.

Well put there. I keep getting tempted by the Nitro cars - then ending up wishing I'd stuck with the electrics. Nice to see someone else with the same dilemma.
