422 - Wild One On Holidays: Its Great Opportunity!

With my Ultima out of the games I've lost the long awaited opportunity to enjoy myself with a RC car on my lawn here on the alps.

Luckily in a few of days after the breakages I had the occasion to visit my mother, so I've rescued my Wild One that was only awaiting to be testede in its last configuration.

The Dirt Tuned does its work without any problems, the Speedstar II 17t never overheats and the batteries had a good punch (LRPs better than Orions).

The car on the grass isn't a lightneen bolt and to have some fun I shortened the ideal track to enjoy the decent amount of torque coming for the conservative motor choiche.

Some grip roll overs have been occurred and I'm considering to cut away some outer spikes from the rear Schumacher tires.

The great news is: no breakages this time!

421 - Flashback Friday: My Wild One Fourth Life (Recent Days)

 

In its last reading my Wild One has benefited of a new body, a new livery new wheels to match the livery of my BBX and my Kyosho Ultima. I really love how it came out.

420 - Holidays! Finally Some Hours To Dedicate To The Hobby.

 

With the stuff gathered weeks ago I was finally ready to enjoy one of my cars here on our lawn.

The first target was finding the correct gear ratio to run my Kyosho Ultima SB on the grass without overheatings.

Unfortunately the Ultima motor plate doesn't allow the use of 18t and 19t pinions without using a larger spur,  so I had to switch to a 20t pinion that seemed to be a good compromise.

Unfortunately something went wrong and I've ground the 76t spur. Without spares in my bag: end of games.
