    Option on Wild Willy Head

    in General discussions

    Posted

    Thanks for your inputs.

    I got another idea. But I am not sure if I looked right. But on pictures, the helmet head of the FAV seems to be bigger than the helmet form Hornet, Lancia etc drivers.

    But I looks smaller than the Wild Willy helmet. Since the FAV will be released soon, those heads go cheap on Ebay.

    Those anyone of you know, is the FAV Helmet really bigger than the Hornet helmet?

    Greetings

    Option on Wild Willy Head

    Hi Guys

    I just received my new crawler.

    And the driver from my Wild Willy 2 fits just perfect. The only problem is, that the head (helmet) is much to big.

    So I am looking for a different head unit which would fit the Wild Willy Driver Body.

    I have tried the normal helmet from the Frog or Lancia Delta. But those are to small.

    Are there other heads or helmets which would fit?

    Greetings André

    3racing Lightbar

    Hi

    I bought a 3racing lightbar with 4 LED and a 3racing lightbar with 5 LED's. I would like to run them direct from a batterie. Just a switch on the body to turn them on / off manually. It makes to put the body on and off much easier.

    But I found no information how much voltage is okay und how much is too much.

    Does anyone know how much Voltage is okay with the 3 Racing LED?.

    @ taliesin, thanks for the links. I helps already but still try to find a manual. Because I like to know how the cabin is build up. I cant see from the exploded view, how the batterie is installed and changed. If I find any further information I will post them here.

    Hi Guys

    My trial chassis is doing quite well. Now I wanted to start with the body. I really love the tamiya globeliner. It would fit perfect. But since its gonna be a trial truck I dont need all the bodyparts. I searched the internet for a pdf manual file but couldent find one. But without the manual its hart to say, which parts i need to order and which i dont need.

    And a complet body kit is very expensive here in Switzerland.

    Does anyone of you have copy of the manual? If yes, please mail them to me.

    Greetings.

    What Are The Chances?

    I dont know how the chance are. But when I see what already has been realeased I would say everthing is possible.

    Personally I really like the Wild One and FAV. And I would defently buy a rere of them and use it as a daily driver. These cars are just fun to drive.

    I still hoping for a Blazing Blazer Body. I always thougt it may happend when Tamiya brought the new 3 Speed's but I am still waiting :-).

    Looking For Bc Coilover Shocks

    in Re-Release Discussions

    Hi Guys

    Just finished my BC and ordered some Frog Tyres. Mainley for the looks. I also installed the shockes upsidedown, because it lookes more realistic.

    Now I would like to convert it to Coilovershockes, just like the 1:1 Baja Buggys. I have tried it with some CVD Shockes from Tamiya. The would fit, but they are too thick and therefore they do not look right.

    Does anyone of you know what other options could be possible?

    Greetings

    Hi guys

    Just start to build my Buggy Champ.

    Now If got a question about the tyres. I would like to fit the Grasshopper Tyres, just because I think they look nicer. I am not sure but from pictures in the internet it seems that the hole in the BC Tyres are bigger than the ones in the Grasshopper Tyres.

    Does anyone of you fitted the Grasshopper Tyres on the BC? Do I need the tyres the wheels and the wheeladapter from the Grasshopper or fit the Tyres on the BC wheels.

    Very very nice Camaro. Unfortunally, they are really really hard to come by here in Switzerland. You are running highjackers in the back, right? The 327 is also a nice engine. I makes almost the same loving sound. It was this sound I loved when I drove my corvette before I had my kids, and the one that my wifes thinks its too lound and noise :-)

    @ 67CamaroSS, thanks for the input, but I really dont know what a TC3 is. Could you please help me? What kind of wide kit would I need. Your camaro really looks very very nice. I love it. Its defently a dream car. If I ever win some money in the lottery I would buy myself a camaro with the 427 engine, and than crusing around with my kids and have a big big smile in my face :-)

    Could you poste some pics without the body?

    @ Willy Chang. I really dont know. Problem is, that the manual says that the part nr for the SB6 is 51006 but this is also the part nr for SB7. Makes it quite hard to order the right thing.

    Are there really no chassis which come with 200mm track`?

    Thanks for the help

    I download the manual of the tt01 and saw that there are sb7 axles (for wide bodys) and sb6 for regular (like the Lancia Delta). There are also some extra wide Hex on the D-Parts. But just 2 oft them. I lookslike the give a extra 5mm on each side. The 31mm vintage wheels from HPI give another 6mm on each side.

    I guess with the SB7 and the HPI wheels the track should go just a little over 200mm.

    Hi guys

    Would like to have your opinion. I just ordered a HPI Ford Mustang Shell. I always loved that body. My Grandpa used to have a regular Mustang GT.

    Now I need a nice chassis. I thougt about the TT01 but I think its to small. The wheelbase would fit but the track is to small. The body has 200mm.

    What would you recommend?

    Cheers

    Did not know that. Thanks for the Input.

    So if I got tiered of my Subaru Body on the DF03 RA I could replace it with the nice 959. I check his homepage, but I could not find any prices. How much are they?

    I also read that he uses 2.2 Tires, but that sounds very big to me. I use 2.2 on my crawler and those tires are huge.
