Als op volger van mijn Tamiya M-03M Swift ben ik naast mijn Mi4 opzoek naar een nieuw Mini Chassis ala de Tamiya. Nu zijn daar vooral in het Oosten veel verschillende kits in te krijgen maar allemaal van de minder bekende merken. In Europa zijn er bijna tot geen verdelers van deze merken. Heb je dan is snel een onderdeeltje nodig moet je vaak toch wel minimaal 2 weken wachten.
Nu kwam ik de HPI Cup Racer tegen als alternatief met 4WD en hopelijk iets betere rij eigenschappen als de Swift maar wel de zelfde Fun factor.
Zijn er mensen die ervaring met dit model hebben? Wat vinden jullie er van?
Hier onder wat foto's en Specs van het chassis:
Cool scale features:
* HPI 'True Ten' design - radio-control car models closer to scale than ever before!
* Classic sports car and racer bodyshells that inspired generations of car fans
* Moulded chrome details such as windscreen wipers, mirrors, bumpers, exhaust pipes and more.
* Multiple width adjustments to fit huge range of future bodyshells:
o Hub/upright inserts
o Variable wheel hex adapters (0mm & 4mm)
o Hex adapter inserts (1mm & 2mm)
o Different offset wheels (0mm, 3mm, 6mm)
* Huge variety of body post locations to suit many different shapes of bodyshells
* Nearly infinite body post height adjustment to get perfect scale appearance
