F1 Build Updates?

Subject: F1 Build Updates? Sat Apr 03, 2010 7:55 pm

As far as i know .... there were at least 6 F1's supplied by JJ to dubdrift members ...... just thought of opening up a thread that would cater to everyones build .... there comments ... thoughts .... insights on 3racings new F1-09 kit .....

as for me .... i found 3racings quality up to par with the leading brands ..... packaging was fantastic and the quality of the parts are of hop-up quality ..... the quality of the foam tires are second to none as they are very sticky out of the pack ..... building it was a blast

anyways ... here are a couple of pics after completing the kit ..... i just need an esc, receiver and paint .... she's all ready to run .....

Nice one Strawb! Have you decided what paint scheme you want for the shell?

Maybe if you renamed the name of the thread, the mini guys could post the updates on the build of their M05 kits. Just a suggestion!

Sir Ian's F109 has been built also, it looked STUNNING!

strawb what pinion are you using with the standard spur gear?

Subject: Re: F1 Build Updates? Sun Apr 04, 2010 12:06 pm

I ordered a 32T 64P pinion to use with this, it is what the kit suggests. Hope my order arrives before the weekend. It has my receiver and servo too!

I built the front and rear end last night, will do the shock tonight, and see how far I get. I'm not sure if i will be bothered with a F1 Team paint theme. Will have to do some research to see what is possible.

Also I notice that spur is standard so if you don't have 64P pinions, you can replace with another spur as per your choice.

Hi,
I am starting with the bodyshell. In about an hour mine will be Tamiya 'Luminous Green'.

I suggest everyone else claims their colours in this thread, these cars will be hard enough to control without having to guess which one is yours.
