hai vanquish i want ask u ,
i have see your car. iwant to ask, if in the corner, the car will stabil or will out?(picture car colour is yellow, white and black)thx

The theory is actually the same as tamiya, however, the only difference in the speed as the motor self-coiled.. The rotator, brush and magnet are all custom type, totally different from the machine-made tamiya motors.. Parts on those cars are mainly from taiwan/hong kong/japan.. Racers playing this will understand the difficulty and challenges faced, especially the motor part..

Anyway, anyone out there still playing this?

Oh yesh... i remembered the RC Track, its along AMK Ave 4 right? behind the track is the AMK town West garden.. Ahhhh.. those were the days... i used to play my RC there also.. with my grasshopper 2 and madcap.. hahhaha

I also remembered the shop too! selling RCs and mini 4wds. They even got a mini 4wd track mounted permanently outside the shop on a solid wooden table.

The old emporium, the clock tower i believed is the old location of funzcentre.

 

[~VaNqUiSh~]

Cool.. My friends and I used to play at the funzcentre before the area was being upgraded too..
