Old_School 0 Posted May 2, 2010 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 It is available on Rétro Modélisme: http://www.retromodelisme.com/manuel_page/...ish-kyosho.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Live Steam Mad 17 Posted July 21, 2010 The reason that that Javelin manual looks so "dotty" and with poor shading and the text looks so harsh is because, like Tamiya USA likes to do, it was scanned in LINE ART mode (2 BITs) (BLACK AND WHITE). To prevent this, the item needs to be scanned in GREYSCALE mode (8 bits, 256 shades of grey). Just a little tip. Makes all the difference to the scan though. Cheers, Alistair G.

I have a couple of terrabytes free. You can upload a few at a time when your free to my servers and I would be happy to setup a temp front page download menu. I even have lots of spare domains doing nothing you could use. You could then just transfer the lot to your new site when its up and running or bung a link in to it to save re-uploading them all. It would be a great resource for everyone trying to restore models. I do boats and planes too so I could host all the manuals if you like. If your interested just PM me. No strings, all free. I do I.T. as a hobby. ( No geek jokes please ) Regards Mark (sgt.barnes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

( No geek jokes please ) Regards Mark (sgt.barnes) My main problem is i have around 125 original printed manuals which need scanning (no time) and the others are in PDF (also no time), im hoping to get time this year to do it (i hope) as i know its a good resource fr people but time is definately short. No geek jokes here buddy no worries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tphalen01 0 Posted January 21, 2011 Hi Tamiyaoman. I run a site called CompetitionX.com. It is a site geared towards helping new and veteran RC'ers with a tuning section, how tos, maintenance, etc. One of the main things I offer, however, is a TON of user manuals for all types of surface RC. I currently have over 1000 manuals and am looking to add more all the time. If you can get those over to me, I would be more than happy to scan them in and post them up (and, of course, return the originals to you). Or, if you can get them scanned in, you can e-mail me (or I can set up FTP access) and we can get them posted. Either way, I would collect the ones I don't have. Please feel free to shoot me an e-mail at tonyp (@) competitionx.com and we can get this worked out. Thanks! Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
