    Well, let the front carbon brace mounted and take the ABS one with you just in case. Btw I was asked for some of this carbon parts by a fella here, I am supporting another team as well now. hehehe

    Wow. Nice to see that parts crossfit. Should have put one extra batt mounts in the letter as well. I really like the cutted aluminum plate on top of the rear brace.

    Thanks. I am really not in a mood to make it fly. Just pure Tamiya history collectiors item. : )

    Thanks @davidsen for the original ABS rear hub which I swaped with the printed repro. Thanks Tamiya for the SA-rere which gave me a new front and rear bumper. Now it is all as originaly was. Well, not all parts, I am still looking for this 8-shaped connectors for the front stabilizer ballends. You are never done doing RC

    By Murphys Law go and get a spare set now!

    I would never ever have the fear that the pa12 steering arms break. Ballend will pop off first. A benefit of nylon is little more flex then ABS.

    I had such a huge load of this y-trees, glad you saved one that time. Through pure luck I bought about 100 sets of different Dyna plastic trees for about 2€ per tree from an insolvence auction. It was saying "model car plastic parts lot"... haha this was a great find and I took only that lot. Carbon parts are shippend and you can expect them for next week.

    Usually it ends in an disaster when I start painting rc stuff.

    Btw. sometimes it is just enough to turn the reamer anti-cutwhise. It will compress the material giving it a tough surface. Other then cutting material away. Still pa12 is great durable but also soft, way softer then ABS. So thats all the blackmagic about 3d prints and bearing seats I can share with you guys.

    Great to read this. One more, for parts like rear wheel hubs (everyhing kind of this taking two bearings and having a smaller diameter inbetween) I just remove the camfert segment but reducing the tips inner diameter as needed, so you receive a self-centering reamer. The cheap reamer are so soft, you can easily machine them on the lathe.

    Decal Day : ) Just a quick plott and some decals which might fit. I am fine as it is now : )

    This kit was listed with 200€ first. I think the seller misunderstood the scale : ) 30€ incl. shipping was not my cheapest find so far but still fair for this little gimmick.

    Ya you all know my work from past years but now its going to be spectacular. I got bored sunday evening diging through local announces finding this little fella for a peanut. Only the shell was done so far but I took off all decals gently. They did not stick so good and I think I will cut new ones with my plotter and some vinyl foile. Next question, going brushless or not? Haha no, That thing is just a little gimmick between all the "big" ones. But still all finest Tamiya built quality, it was a joyfull built. More pics after the vinyl decals are cut : ) Have a good one guys.
