During this week I
finished the Wild One I built during the past weeks. I enjoyed very
much the built of this Tamiya classic and I've adopted some little
tricks to reach something close to the idea I had in my mind.
First I wanted to resolve
the problem of the right side hole so I built from scratch a clone of
the A11 and A12 parts and I've painted it in black.
To get to the car a clean
look I've decided to swap all the red parts I could to the black FAV
parts and to paint the rest in black. Also the front shocks towers
are painted in black and the front bumper isn't fitted.
I spent an evening to
find a clean layout for the cables, I've chosen both black silicone
cables for the motor the antenna is hidden under the body hold in
place by a tie rod end.
A good old Sport Tuned
sits on the back with a 15T pinion gear.
It's full ballraced and
is awaiting for rear unis.
I was in doubt for the
bodywork because I like very much the paintwork inspired by 70s and
80s I've seen on TC but I, also, love the styles
that, some years later Hirosaka, Kinwald & Co have used for their
race cars. Unfortunately after a lot of surfing to take inspiration
and after a lot of mumbling the result is only this stupid semi-arrow
style.
I did a shakedown afer
the photo shooting and I've discovered that this car is a pleasure to
drive, I'm totally fascinated by this car and I love how it handles.
The only problem is the less room for the ESC that after 20 minutes
of run stopped the car for overheat protection.
