Kyosho Pegasus (Almost)
I've wanted a Pegasus for a long time now, but they are few and far between in Australia. However, I did manage to get a second Cox Bandido, so I thought I would restore it with a Pegasus body.
I had an old silver can that was a bit rusty so it received a bit of customisation. I was originally going to keep the red chassis of the Bandido but I think the Pegasus really needs the grey or black chassis, so I painted the chassis grey.
I would like to change the electronics out at some point to the red set shown on the factory box art, I think it finishes it off perfectly, but until then mine will have to make do with gear from my parts box.

I love those! They look fantastic, and I think they're pretty few and far between everywhere! Nice find.

Thanks guys!

nice work! These seem like they are also very similar to the Cosmo? I have one to restore and the chassis looks almost identical, except for the top part of the front suspension.

Hi Yogi, it's been a long time since we've spoken, I hope you are well. Yes the Cosmo is a higher spec version of the chassis.

Nice photo skills....and a treat to see these old Kyosho models in such nice condition... Never drove one of these back in the 80s when they were new to the scene. I also liked the Cosmo version as well.

Yes, the Cosmo is very cool, I would also like to get my hands on an Icarus some day.
