gyro is essential for drift RC. I dont use gyro for any of my offroad rc. still noob though haha

I used gyro on my mini 1:18 scale truggy because small models is quite twitch on off-road.

Bee-tee-doubleU, for ackerman I need to modify the steering link right? Am I correct if I said the toe link need to be in angle shape for the desired ackerman configuration to achieved?

awesome

reminds me of a friend's losi mini 8ight.
sold already. tak sempat curi2 bash pun

not familiar with how they do the setup actually. sorry

Losi mini 8ight is rare model nowadays, last time was a struggle to get one of these in malaysia.

Anyone still crawling? check out my pre-bedtime 4x4 bashes at night on my indoor track with my micro Land Rover Defender.

woah. I want to recommend this for a friend that is into rc crawler but havent yet started. looks cool

P.S Ive read that you have mini Z before? still have it around? I need donor chassis for a project. hehe

I still have my Mini-z and also the Firelap but i don't have spare donor. Yet i don't play much because i don't have proper track to play around and MR02 diff gear always worn out hitting tarmac debris outside home. I would recommend you to get Wltoys K989 which is more durable and compatible with any mini-z projects.

Just finished building my VLB, any other Lunch Box owners in Malaysia?

It's been on my wishlist for ages.



Had a Tamiya Astute second hand when I was a teenager, glad to finally be able to afford this fun machine.

Got plenty of mods in mind

Woah! nice Lunchbox bro! nice to see another old skool Tamiya fans here. I also planning to get a LunchBox too but first i need to get some Tamiya buggy first.
But its closest cousin the Wild Willy was my first love. Btw Astute is a gold!

Wow nice collection, WW and Monster Beetle are kinda similar to Lunch Box, crazy fun wheelie machines haha.

Great painting on the WW!

I'm not sure what I'll get next, probably something more serious like a Kyosho MP9e.

you got me looking for 1/8 van bodyshell to fit in my Outcast. hahaha. looks cute as hell

Ohhhh nononnono noooooo....the Z is my preeeccioouuussss!!!
Those Atomic AMZ looks sexy in carbon, i thin if you put aluminum upgrades k989 with transparent body shell will looks very precioouusss too.

Btw i'm live across the ocean. I make my own track at home

Thanks, not much paint except more toward detailing paint on the driver figurine.
Btw get more Tamiya kits since they comes very seasonal and limited for the 80's re-re models.

wah awesome! definitely in my buy list but i prefer the yellow/red
why do you have 2 bodies though?

Yah yellow is the default, there's a blue edition, red edition and black edition, but quite hard to find.

You can spray any colour you want though, shell comes white, I chose this colour myself to have something different.

I have a black shell for bashing and the blue shell I painted quite carefully with primer, multiple paint coats and laquer so I don't really want to scratch it

I just got stickers for the black shell today, and I've ordered the bumpers/tail pipes and windows for it too so I can make it complete.
