Amazing fine and realistic detail! If it weren't for the size of the grass blades or the folk in the background, one could easily be forgiven for thinking it was full scale pics. :thumbup:

Strange how they are the same as the big ones, broke front and rear props on Sunday, must admit they were plastic, will be changing to stainless steel soon. I was trying to climb a 30 deg rock face. :siffler:

Neil I raced the 1:10 scale electric models.

As you say - VERY realistic !!!

Just the temperature change between the morning qualifiers and the afternoon main race meant a re-build of the shock, and various setup changes .....


I entered a couple of concourse events ... for giggles .... some entrants spent LONG hours on preparing stunning speciments ! Absolute respect to those with the skill and patience for this.
