People come over and they take one glance and they immediately know what it is and that makes me happy. Looks like you have enough new parts for another great build Colin  |
I think I agree, I'm pleased with the end result and I won't be running this one
. I do have plenty of parts for another build. If I could find another set of genuine Kyosho Optima chassis rails, I think I would build up an Optima Pro. I'd still need some other parts, mainly drive train, but you can find those quite easily.
I've done my best to keep this original, even sourcing the correct Kyosho screws to replace the ones I wasn't happy re-using.
