I am not trying to sound overly pro-Kyosho but for gas cars, dun go tamiya. They are not very strong in that area. Kyosho has got a better heritage for gas, Inferno, Super 10, Pure 10, blah blah blah. Of late, their gas cars design also looks very strong and influenced by Serpent. Geometry also very good.

I agree on this :o

Yup, the red cover one. :) Usually I go to S'Wan at Orchard Plaza. Its in between Le Meridien and Cuppage, the store directly above 7-Eleven.

I think the TT01D would set you back by at least $400, assuming you get these:
TT01D
Futaba 2PL radio set
minimum 3300mAh 7.2V battery pack
Paint: about $8/can
Charger: $15-30 and above

thx for your info :D:D
i guess the tt01d+radio set is costing around S$400,
but is there any radio set that has the same function as 2PL but not the 10memory thing:s11:


anyway im so baffled how you all did the mad painting on the body :s22:

Most welcome :) I think you can ask for the Futaba set that's one notch below the 2PL. :D Hehe, a good paint job/scheme requires some careful masking, lotsa patience and good choice of colours. :D Can pick up a colour matching chart from Art Friend or any art store. =)

Quick charger will be either 100+ or those really cheap ones already which will charge a pack in about a day. And if you are getting high capacity batteries, I dun think you can charge with those cheap chargers.

My recommendation is to get cheap battery packs, 1600mah ones, and use slow chargers. Each 1600mah packs about $29 only.

3300mAh can charge with those $15 charger, but gotta charge a few hours. The more expensive chargers ($100 and above) can discharge and peak charge your batteries for you at adjustable current settings. On average about 45min (I think) for 3300mAh batts.
