Falcon Number 3...

At Snetterton 2004 Si (Gingerboy99) offered me this Falcon. Seeing as Claire didn't complain I bought it and Si even offered to chuck in a new chassis for me. Cool.

A quick cleanup later and the results are below. Ignore the chassis - I didn't clean that because it's getting another. It'll make a nice runner this one - yes, this one will definitely be a runner...! I'm not sure what I'm going to do to it yet, suffice to say it'll go like greased lightning, will handle and will not spit driveshafts. It's a bit tricky to set a Falcon up but when you get them working they are great fun for scaring the pants off much more complex machinery...!
Current thinking is a set up with much lighter shocks - carsons perhaps, or a set of hi-caps if I can find some, fully ballraced of course, ubiquitous no-limit ESC and a hot motor. I'll prolly go to Fox/Wild One wheels as it's easier and cheaper to get tyres, plus it gives me a bit more rolling radius to exploit the hot motor some more. Stay tuned...!


***Update***Car now features Wild One wheels, Top Force mini pin spikes and my Team Losi modified. Thanks to Moosey a set of immaculate mini Hi-Caps have been installed on the front. WHAT a difference. This car will really handle nicely when it's done. There's going to be a fair bit of work in setup but I think it'll be worth it...!
