Never actually had one of these, since i've always raced Tamiya's, but im pretty sure it's a Schumacher Axis II (maybe Axis I), and if im correct on this, then the car dates back to 1999-2000. Schumacher cars have aleays been high quality and well-engineered, and I think you can find exploded drawings and maybe even a manual and spares at their website [Click here]

Hi ALex thanks, yes i am told its an axis 2, have checked on schuie site and still has spares etc, now just trying a supplier for saddlepack batteries

yes it's an axis 2 - schumacher still list parts for it but some are becoming obsolete. I might have a few spares for this if interested just let me know. The ESC is also genuine schumacher again i might have a manual for that

Yes, as already identified, this is an Axis2... looks like a good buy for £22! Though I would guess that the parts that you think are Carbon are actually FRP.. Schumacher's 'Fibre Reinforced Plastic' has a chequred weave that looks very much like genuine Carbon Fibre. The Axis2 is the model released before the original Mission... which is still sold in re-release form - so many of the transferable parts are still avaliable. I have an Axis1 in my showroom which was the last touring car I drove as a Schumacher sponsored driver, the only difference between my car & the Axis2 is the top deck was replaced with the double turnbuckle arrangement to increase flex in the chassis to get more grip & make the car easier to drive. Your car has some interesting wheels on it - perhaps it was run with a NASCAR style bodyshell?
