416 - Almost Ready For Holidays: gathering some stuff

August is on its way and our summer holidays too, This year I haven't a kit to bring with us and to build during the fresh alpine evenign so I'm planning to bring my Kyosho Ultima Dirtmaster built during last year summer holidays.

My equipment have been lightened already thanks to some useful usb-C powered items: my new soldering iron and the G-Force charger neverthless the stuff to pack remain a lot.

As spare motor, if the Team Orion will prove to be undersized,  I decided to use my LRP Super Series Team Tested that claims 27.000 rpm. I've also purchased a good backup of steel pinons from Ruddog to find the proper gear ratio to keep performance without overheats.

415 - Flashback Friday: My Wild One First Life (early days)

 

I've bought my Wild One back in 2013, it have been my first build using the Tamiya Tools and I really enjoyed it.

After the build I've painted it in a simple and clean two colors livery

414 - The Delta Ray Buggy: Second Chance Or Honored Retirement?

The build of my Delta Ray Buggy has been the longest in my career in this hobby: born as my TA01 restomod project it has been finished as a buggy that Tamiya never made.

This car is on a shelf, fully equipped but it needs some electronics updates to be back to the runner status or only a livery revamp with fluo yellow lining to be definetely retired.

It has been driven for only a few times, just to prove that it moves. It gave good feelings but I'm in doubt if it is the case to give her a second chance.
