Kyosho Manuals In Pdf

[tamiyoman 2]

I recently put together a file of approx 100 PDF manuals for Kyosho RC cars ( think for RC cars there are 107 of them), i also have 2 HOR Motorbike manuals, 57 plane manuals, 44 helicopter manuals and 34 Boat manuals, i would like to know the best place to make them available to people (if they are interested?), what i dont have is time to be sending these to people on an individual basis so im looking for a recommendation as to where to send them for hosting!.

Any help appreciated. Most of them are in English!. Below is a list of manuals,i also have some exploded diagrams of these cars too.

Im not going to list the other stuff as i imagine its RC cars most people would be interested in.

All but one of the nostalgic series is here (just missing the MGB MK I i think)

Not too many very early manuals (i have most of the older manuals in Hard copy rather than PDF but these are already PDF'd)

Cheers

Hi Tamiyoman,

That's quite a list And I think it would be very nice if these were available online! Can't you contact an admin here on TC and look if you can get these poisted here (despite this being a Tamiya website) - We already have a few Schumacher manuals listed, so why not a Kyosho list, too?

[tamiyoman 2]

I have contacted TC and asked them this.

I have contacted TC and asked them this.

Great, I have been looking for the Cobra Daytona manual for some time. Since you have a lot of Kyosho manuals, Rétro Modélisme (http://www.retromodelisme.com) also can be an option for uploading?

[tamiyoman 2]

Yes it would be but thats all in french so thats a no go lol (nothing against french people, just i dont speak the lingo, yes typical english person!).

Thanks

Don't feel bad, I'd never learn French either...and I'm not an english person...though, it has become rather close

[tamiyoman 2]

Tak!

[Incredible_Serious 107]

Tamiyoman,

Can't wait for you to find a home for these, been searching for a Rav4 manual for AGES..... still on the lookout for a Sierra RS500 manual though.....

Keep us informed!!!

Alex

[tamiyoman 2]

Main problem is time now (which i dont have much spare lol), TC have offered to host them but i need to burn them all to a disk and send it to them.

I will do this when i get some free time and work out how to use my cd/dvd writer (which i have never used!).

Cheers

Another Update, i now have over 150 Original manuals too (10 Ring Binders full of manuals), they came as part of a "Kyosho LOT" i recently acquired.

Some examples below of the manuals i have now (unfortunatley as i dont even have time to upload the ones i already have that are in PDF already, its going to be even harder for me to get these scanned and uploaded, but they will be done eventually), I think almost ALL of them are in english too!.

i hope you find a place to them im in need for a manual to kyosho nissan terrano number 31513

[lupogtiboy 454]

is the website I suggested of no use?

[tamiyoman 2]

I decided to host them on my own website which will go online in january sometime (possibly february), its easier for me to get my father to do it (he is building the site) and that way we have a reference section, its easier than uploading it all toi several sites and spending days scanning manuals.

Main problem is time now (which i dont have much spare lol), TC have offered to host them but i need to burn them all to a disk and send it to them.

I can walk you through this.

DON'T use Windows Explorer / Windows drag and drop alone to do it, that will nearly always result in corrupt discs. You will need Nero or similar.

First up, go and buy some RITEK G05 8xDVD-R discs (they are the most compatible and reliable disc on the market, I have used them in everything for years).

Next, have you got a copy of Nero at all on your PC? Have a look in Start / Programs / Nero (some name or version) / Data / Nero Burning ROM. If not buy it, it's quite cheap from a local independent computer shop (like 10 / 15 GBP at the most I think for an older version, you only need V7 and indeed NVE5 which seems to be with the full version of Nero V8 is terrible, Nero VE4 is best) When you have this and can launch the program, then

Then make sure that your DVD burner is selected at the top right (you will see something like "D:Optiarc"). If the correct one is not selected (i.e. if you have multiple CD / DVD drives) then click cancel in the window that has come up, and go into there above and click and you get a drop down menu to select the correct drive that you want to burn to. Then click on File and then New from the drop down menu.

If you have only 1 DVD burner then it will select it correctly by default so you can leave it like that.

Make sure that under New Compilation in the top right of the window you can see DVD. If not and it says CD, go in there and alter it to DVD. Underneath it should be highlighted on "DVD-ROM (ISO)". If not, click on it to highlight it in blue. Now make sure that on the top right of the window the Multisession tab is selected and then under where it says "Multisession" further below, that it says "No Multisession".

Now put your blank DVD-R disc in the drive and wait a few seconds for it to be detected and then click on Nero Express down near the bottom of the window. Nero Express will launch (which is the simplified version of Nero) and then choose Data DVD and then Add and then select your various files by clicking on the 1st one, holding shift down, the clicking on the last one, or select all by pressing CTRL down and then dab the "a" key, and deselect anything you don't want by holding CTRL down and clicking on it.

When finished selecting click on add at the bottom and then click on finished / cancel next to it. The window that popped up when you clicked Add the first time will dissappear and you will see the files ready to be burned. Now click Next and then click the thing which is in the middle extreme left which opens a panel so you can select the Writing Speed. Choose 4x. Never ever burn a disc faster than 4x or you'll end up with bad burns. Make sure Verify data on disc after burning is ticked, and that Allow files to be added later (multisession disc) is not ticked and then click on burn. Your disc will now be written and then verified.

Now you should have a disc with all of your manuals on it. Make a couple of copies for back up as discs are cheap.

If you have more than 4.3 GB of files then use a Dual layer disc and you can then fit on 8GB. If you still have too much for a single disc, then put half the files on one disc and the rest on a 2nd disc.

When you have your site up I would like in particular to be able to download an English manual for the Kyosho Progress.

Cheers,

Alistair G.

Well my father is currently working on the website to get ALL our kyosho spares onto it and it will also have a reference section with all the manuals too. Not sure when its going to be ready as im not rushing my father lol.

Thanks

[Throttletw 0]

This is a great service you are providing us, Thanks!!! Can't wait for it to be finished, just getting ready to restore my old Double Dare and can't find the manual. Keep us posted bro!

[tamiyoman 2]

He is doing his best in the limited time he has available (im keeping him busy LOL), hoping to get it up and running soon as ebay fees are going up yet again.

[R3Deye 0]

Nice listing, any progress yet in putting them online?

I'm looking for the Kyosho TF-2 and TF-3 manuals.

[tamiyoman 2]

Hi, the website is currently under construction estimated completion is approx 8-10 weeks from now, we decided to get this going as im sick of ebay taking 10% just for causing me problems!., so not only will the site have a manuals section it will also have a shop with ALL my kyosho stock (currently about 50% listed on ebay although every day im taking items off there!) prices will also be 10% cheaper too plus you wont have to pay membership like some other sites do before you get your discounts (thats just taking the ****!).

Cheers

Can't wait to the site mate. In desperate need of a manual for a TF-2 and TF-3.

[tamiyoman 2]

Its under construction right now, we have to start loading all the stock and pictures onto it next week, so it may be ready in 2-3 weeks on its basic format, then another 2-3 weeks for the manuals section to be added.

Thanks

[Mopar Marv 0]

Any news on your website yet? I'm in serious need of a Lazer ZX-R manual and some parts numbers so I can start looking for the parts needed to restore my Lazer.

[Vipfreak 0]

I'd love to get a copy of the Optima Mid Custom Special manual. Is there a website up for it yet or are you giving copies out? Thanks
