    You’re talking about a normal 4.2 motor like this?

    Rashumble7… have gone to Dick Smiths to sacrifice yet another of enertecs finest,hopefully will have awd up and running before any of you gezza’s get one. Have spent some time nutting out front differential/magnet conflict…vehicle will be touring car not monster, biggest fear is weight which might kill it.Am considering magnesium instead of steel for drive train, Don’t expect killer performance..6 km/h max.

    Oh okay. At the moment I haven’t even thought about where I would race it. I currently race there with my Tamiya 1:10 scale F1 car, my Renault F201 and I’ve had an absolute ball with that. Obviously having the Mini-Z now, I’d love to get that car up to amazing speeds with awesome handling too, but I just wanna get started with some things. I love all the work that PH2T has done with the Nelly, Kitsune won’t stop yabbering about it!!!! :D:D:D

    I have never actually been to TFTR so I don’t know what the surface is like. I assumed that it would be an asphalt-like surface just like BRCCC. The thing about BRCCC is that it was designed solely to be a tennis court and was then converted to an RC track. This of course does make the track quite rough to race on which is a bit of a shame (can hit huge bumps due to excess asphalt being slapped over the old tennis net post mounts). Ohh well, I look forward to hopping up my little fella (so to speak) and meeting you guys soon with Kitsune down at TFTR.:):):)

    From memory is should be less than $1000 AUD but I couldn’t find where I saw it from.

    Shown that video to friends not until the saw the landing part do they realized it is a RC bird. 😯

    Originally it intended to be some sort of military spy craft but not anymore……:smiley2:

    Yeh, i just had a read through the whole thread. It sounds like this whole Nelly thing has been a great old ride for everyone to be part of. Good stuff I say!!!

    Nope, not the real one, but I do race a Renault R/C Car if that counts, at BRCCC. :smiley2:

    Hi Guys, I’m EXTREMELY new to this whole thing on 1:28 scale cars, aside from having a play with Kitsune’s toys.

    But….. I have recently bought myself a Mini-Z F1 (being an F1 luvver) and I want to put a Nelly in it and get the thing moving FAST!!! Ummmmm, my grip issues will be resolved ASAP too but anyway, my question is reguarding size really. Obviously there is very little room under the shell for little goodies so Kitsune said we may be able to get the 1.2 in there, but obviously the 1.3 would be better. PH2T, have you had much experience with modding the Mini-Z F1 at all, as far as FET mods go?? I am possibly going to come down with Kitsune to the next get together so I am happy to bring it down to see the size but any tips/help reguarding that sort of arena would be great.

    I am very new to this arena so I apologize in advance for knowing very little about this scale of car and how they work. (ya thinkin, bloody newbies!!!) :D:D

    Thanks Cavo, but I don’t really want an air-boat – and this thing is going to have a Speed400 motor in it, so not really for the pool 🙂

    Hey guys, love the entries on this contest so far. Just came to play, not to win, but one thing I noticed, is that with the current voting system being opened from the 1st entry it gives late commers a large advantage because more people will have seen thier work. Does this make sence? Well either way, GL to all that entered.

    Yes Rashumble, it can be done and have done some preliminary research,my design requires 316 stainless steel front differential internals so not to compromise magnetic steering and to get full use of awd theory suspension is a must, as a typical ball joint at either end takes up too much room it is possible to use either a Hirth coupling (serrated)or Oldem (slotted)however battery endurance would be poor due to high mechanical loses.

    Yikes! well. I think willy Makeit has it in for m anyway:DChassis shots will be up this week along with tutorials for the major mods. A lot of it is pretty self explanatory when you see the pics of the chassis.

    Hi,

    do you still have more sets of bearings? I’m after 6 sets, and probably 6 sets of the wheel nuts too… let me know if you still have stocks.

    Please verify also, do these sets fit the F1’s?

    Thanks
