The "Postman Brought Me" Thread

Recommended Posts

First day of a short lockdown and I've received the essential DT03 parts from RCMart.  I'm still waiting on the reinforced part tree to arrive but it looks like Fusion didn't actually have it in stock so I'll be waiting another month for it.  I'm tempted to just get started.

Decent haul arrived today

CC02: The new aluminium servo mount

TA08: Spare front uprights, spring kit, front direct pulley and cups

TRF201: Slipper clutch and all the parts to build a complete gearbox with a TA06 gear diff, plus some rear arms, stabilizer bar set and a few other bits that I've been missing for my 201 from parts build

Bit of a survivor this one. Got it for pre-89 vintage racing. Might run it as is. I don't want to restore it.

A Carson Reflex Pro 3 Nano RX that can actually fit inside the SU-01 chassis that I am building now.

This just showed up from Japan. I wanted it for parts but its in Amazing condition ( well out side of having a bad pant job and the driver needing a head, lol ) I think I might re paint it box art and make it a lite runner ?

A 1625 ESC, finally I can (try) to finish the electrics in my SU-01. Sourcing for suitable gear for that chassis is a real journey!

Should be the last load of parts for the TRF201 build, waiting for a gearbox case from Shapeways and some titanium screws before I can start, body should show up soon I hope!

Tires for my GF01 and WR02.  

Since you said those were softer than Wild Willy 2 tires, I might get them myself.  Thank you for that bit of info!

Finally got reproduction Wild Willy 1 tires. 

They seem harder and plasticky, but I'd have to compare them on the wheels.  The other is a motor plate for MF-01X.

MBModels are doing stonking deals on Protoform TC bodies at the moment, so got a new BRCA legal body for the TA08 (£4.99!!)

And so they're here. My most awaited Corolla WRC bodies. That's right, two of them! Haha!

The EVo5 and Citroen Xsara WRC belongs to my friend. I will paint all these very soon. ;)

Ferrari Dino body (trying to decide between LeMans race livery, or the Camel livery below)
