Seriously though, your work is awesome, and I can't wait for the 2k12 liveries.

I didn't say I was airing my balls out

As soon as I have some confidence in the appearance of the 2012 cars I will start doing the sheets. Might be cool to do launch and test versions

What do you think of that?

I'd say I painted my car silver in anticipation, but that would be lying. Maybe later tonight though.

I'll take one of those EJ Buzzin Hornets.

Sydewynder, what body set is this? Been looking at 201 bodies but haven't seen this one.

1/5 F1's are really scale, with the size and engine sounds.

I am running the electronics in my F103. I will be running a Novak Havoc with a 21.5. Any issues with running 16 guage wire between the esc and motor?

No actually you can go to thinner cable and it all fits better and work just as well.
I have the same combo on my F104 and F103

Absolutely, but I can tell you it wont be cheap. I really need to wrap up the projects on the bench before I take on any more. Its the problem of being a one man band. PM me with wha tyou have in mind

What kind of amp draw will a 21.5 pull? Will a 20c work or do I need a 30+c?

My first F1 paint job. Holy nightmare!! Way to many parts to one body, 1 inch thick lexan, and my paints did not get along. So I figure first good hard shot the blue paint is all going to fall off. Once I saw the paint crinkle up I just slapped the stickers on just to get it good enough to run this weekend. I have another body on order for attempt number 2 at the livery. I have a new set of tires and wheels coming also so they will match the body.
