I got the GOPro H2 camera and will mount it on my 12L real soon. The engine will probably just be the Speedworks monstermash but it has high torque and 16T, while I rebuild the Lemans High Speed at 19T. (Wish I had more options but those are my two vintage motors that are in the best shape right now).

I think this will hit about 40mph from a FPV (First Person View). The Gopro weighs about 9 ounces with the proper attachments and probably gona strap it on the front Bumber of it unless I can attach it on the upper rear plate. The shell will be off too I think.

I held off the brushless set up due to the woman complaining on how much I spent on the Camera ect...

But Is anyone interested in seeing it? I also may mount it on my maxum or Jrx-T. But realy curious how it will look with a 1/12th so low to the ground.

Someone knows the brand Electro Craft based in San Jose? I know they made early 1/12th cars and ESC at least, also found this name at a 1979 magazine. Looking for any informations.

Got this RC12E some days ago. The rear wheels are Thorp maybe the diff also but what brand are the front wheels? These are aluminium and narrower than stock wheels with very hard moulded tires.

From what I know Bolink made option parts for the Jerobee cars in the beginning. The aluminium front wheels from my RC12E are narrow as the early Jerobee front wheels. Is it possible these are some wheels actually made for the early Jerobee cars?

This car seems using some very old parts as the ESC, the Futaba S7 servo or the rear Thorp wheels.

Someone remember when the first ROAR 1/12 nationals were held? 1975 or 1976?

It is not very difficult finding a complete list of all IFMAR world champions until now. But ROAR donīt have the same for the Nationals. At least I canīt find anything.

Hey All,
I'm considering selling my NIB Kyosho Axis EX, and was wondering what y'all might thing it is worth. I can't remember the last time I saw one on eBay, so there isn't much to compare it to. These are extremely rare, but not all that popular among collectors. Any thoughts?



Thanks.
