Cool to see another Sinyih Laser, i have been searching for a body for mine for years, since the original is long gone but might have to slap an ultima body on it instead.
@BriansRCStuff14 күн бұрын
You big tease! First you are gone for what seems like forever and then you tell us what we can't see behind the camera! I hope things settle down for you soon. That RC10 is great! That body on that Optima is great. I would say it is too nice for running on any of my cars! He didn't happen to send you a Losi LXT body too? 😂
@terence79chan14 күн бұрын
Great to see you back! Thanks for sharing another interesting car, it’s probably too good to be considered a knock-off. Chris’s painted Optima bodies look so good, I wish I have half his skills. : )

What a nice find this "Laser" 😊 Wonder how the building experience will be 🤔🤝
@AddamsPlayground16 күн бұрын
Really nice bodies for the Optima and a really nice find in the RC10. Not too often you see them in done stock form, they have usually been tinkered with 3 or 4 times over at least! The Laser buggy is a really cool find as well. I never saw one of those before and it looks pretty sweet! The bendo-stretcho body is kind of crazy though, I have never seen one curl up so badly. Maybe if you pin it down to a flat surface and slowly warm it up with the heat gun and then let it cool pinned flat it may help. Like you said it should still sit fine on the chassis, may need to velcro it to the chassis tub to keep it in place. Looking forward to see this one built. Take care and try to stay cool!

It's Italian. SG, TAG, OPS are all brands that are owned by Mantua Model in Italy, rebadged as the Robbe Geronimo and sold all over Europe. Mantua Model still lists all the spares they still have on their website, so it can be easier to run one of their old cars than some of the bigger brands.

Cool buggy Wade! I am not familiar with these at all so it is pretty cool to see them up close and how they designed it. That bottom definitely has some snag points on it! LOL! I guess countersinking them was not something they thought of or wanted to do! Thanks for sharing it and going over how the build was. I cannot imagine trying to paint the box art pint scheme! that looks like it is a pro-level task, not one I would try and tackle. Maybe straight lines of colors could be doable but those squares are intimidating for sure! Looking forward to see it out for a light run! Take care and have a great weekend!!

What an awesome addition to your classic collection and indeed it is the only Tag Jet video. I always learn something new from your videos Wade. The “progressive coil-spring shocks” are a first for me and they look great with the white and silver. Those green ball link joints add a nice touch too. Maybe you could find a pair of similar green ones to make a brace linkage for the front tower.

Happy Mother’s Day Wade! Congratulations for achieving this milestone! It looks really “blinged” with the white parts and the clear front case showing off those original diffs that you made, I really like your spring-tensioned belt design, it gives me an idea of using a mini 1/28 mono-shock , that will look like the rear suspension of an expensive mountain bike. Perhaps you could consider making a compilation video of your journey. With the re-re of the RC10, I reckon there would be a lot of new RC10 owners interested to see a video of all the compiled clips for the various parts.

Oh wow I’m so happy to hear from a fellow lover of these cars! The engine that’s in the Presto in this video is an OS .21 SE-B and I just used the muffler off the old engine that was in the car when I got it - seems like one that might have come off an inferno dx or something like that. I tried to find the right tuned pipe as well but they’re really hard to get hold of!!! For an unbuilt presto kit I got an OS .21 VF-BR but finding the correct exhaust header has been a pain as well - I absolutely refuse to buy an entire car just to rob the pipe & header from 😄 Hope to see your progress on KZfaq!!!!
