tkm015 0 Posted January 29, 2018 Was going through my older R/C parts and I found this part from Option House that I seem to recall was supposed to be for the Tamiya FF01 Chassis (which made no sense at the time, but it was an older hobby shop trying to get rid of a lot of other hop-ups that I wanted, so they threw it in for cheap). Trying to figure out what car it's actually for, though. I think it says "F Civic" on the front that something not really legible to me beside it. I posted on this board in case, for some odd reason, it just might be for something that's not a Kyosho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillyChang 1814 Posted January 29, 2018 I don't think that's by Kyosho, more likely the logo been "borrowed" by some 3rd party generic parts maker. Kyosho's tags are higher quality, properly printed in multicolour (yellow, red?) on quality glossy card - I've never see them handwritten. The logo's not even in the right font, Kyosho's has serifs Part could be shock tower for FF01. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tkm015 0 Posted January 29, 2018 Yeah, I definitely questioned it, but it was only a few bucks so I said "why not". It looks more pink in my picture, but the true color of the paper is more of a red. My thinking was a suspension part, probably the shock tower. I don't know enough about mid 90's hop-up makers to know if this is semi-legit or not. The parts inside look pretty nice though, so it may at least be functional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillyChang 1814 Posted January 30, 2018 Yeah no reason why it won't work, here's the pointy end of a FF. The body posts have a square key. Plenty of hopup makers back when RC was popular some made by big RC companies, some made by companies that only made hopups & some made by LHSes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tizer 606 Posted March 9, 2018 Send you a PM. Very interesting part. Funny how it seems to be made in Japan even, where the real OptionHouse originally is from too. You'd expect China to copy like this, not a Japanese firm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkm015 0 Posted March 9, 2018 I found several more FF01 hop-ups (Eagle brand) and put them all on ebay. All of them went somewhere in Europe. FF01 must be a lot more popular over there than it is in North America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
