That is sweet, nice job replication the elements on the front wing.

I know I have said this before but the F201 is way up the list of things I am pissed that got stolen when our house was robbed.It was super clean with pretty much every hot rod part Tamiya made for the 201.

Nice job.

Cheers,
Jim

Sorry I don't have anything for sale yet since the parts I have uploaded so far have some flaws to them that need correction. Also need to figure out how to redesign some of the parts so that they don't cost as much to produce. Ideally I want to make a really nice quality mold or have it milled out of aluminum but it would depend on the parts. I'm in process of making another F201 lexan conversion specifically for the 2017 body and might consider making a run of a few sets.

Also to add images to your posts, you simply need to get the image URL you have uploaded to somewhere and wrap it with a '[img]someUrl.jpg[/img]'. Attaching images has size limits.

i found a couple of sets of F201 wheels and tires still new in the package , and listed them on ebay if you guys are interested.

Just a heads up , for some hard to find parts.

Cool bro I see you are using the diffuser and the old gearbox. I'll fix the issue with the rear A arms this weekend. My new design has the tie-rod angled too much that the hub is a little wobbly.
MLP chassis is really nice, I didn't realize it had that many slits for cooling. I made another lexan chassis but still need to add the ventilation openings. I also added an exhaust and waste gate pipes along with the monkey seat type rear wing mount and stuck on the power switch there. Also got some nice new wheels from hkbruin with Pit Shimizu slicks

Any interest in carbon chassis? I still have my box stock 201,always thought it was a cool car, just had no class to run in

burbanfan72

what? yes for f201? ill take it.....carbon yes..........

burbanfan72

created a 3d printed version


seems good fit needs to be made with less internal air pockets solid- not sparse but it was being run with sparse parts so meh its was a good test run ignore the cut in the chassis the guy before me did that hack job.....

i can post pics now tooo yay ill take some more as i go.....

cantilever design recreation stage 1 will make a couple mock ups to get the design right but then im going to do a run of maybe 40? either 7075 or titanium.... anyone know the bearing size for the tamiya 53519 cantilevers so i can source them and trade them as complete sets? im not sure i can remove them on a brand new set of cantilevers?
