029 - Repaired & Strengthened Blitzer

This evening, during a(nother) mental planning of the future upgrades for my Stadium Blitzer, I decide to repair it so I've looked for a spare in my Tamiya junkyard box: mission accomplished. I also found a pair of 3Racing titanium turnbuckles, some ball-ends and some ball connectors so I decided to quick build a pair of strut brace: a low bucks upgrade for the Blitzer's plastic shocks towers. Nothing original but it works!

028 - Time To Get Unis!

This afternoon, after work and before having dinner, I looked for a little relax  with my Stadium Blitzer in the car park near home. I was having fun until I had a crash on a sidewalk, it wasn't a hard crash but the axle had broken as cutted. I suppose it's due to a previous crack.
It's definetely the time to buy unis :)

027 - A Faster Servo For My FF03


Today the postman brought me a packet from Hong Kong within the Blue Bird BMS-661DMG+HS servo that I've ordered last month, it is the new servo for my FF-03 that at the moment fits a budget KO digital servo that in future I want to use in a Wild One re-released.
Unfortunately I've choosen it only with the performance in mind and I forgot to compare its sizes with the KO one... so now I got a taller servo than the old one while I've desidered a shorter one.




Blue Bird servos from Taiwan are one of the few exceptions to my obsession for the made in Japan items. Their Quality is high and the prices are very good for a basher like me and their feeling with KO radio systems is total.
