Thanks Flo. I’m excited about this project, I had an original back in the early 80’s, so it feels nice to have one back in the collection.
There aren’t many build threads on these either, so hopefully I can do it justice.

A few bodyshells incoming for my in progress projects...


I was expecting two 3D prints deliveries today, but it seems it will be for tomorrow or Thursday rather...
I buy kits to built and ru(i)n them :-)

After enjoying driving a Terra Scorcher in the mini enduro, I thought I would like to run my Thunder Shot at the Festival
So I ordered an alloy A5 part for it which just arrived


 
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

Today my NIB Georgia Thunder Shot arrived from Japan.
Now I'm waiting on the last two micro Tamiya buggies and I have all I ordered for my scale garage.

The prints I was expecting yesterday arrived today...

First, some white SLS PA12 printed elements for the Samurais


Later on some red SLS PA12 for the Nichimo Spirit FF. It came in a cocoon :)

I am curious about this part.  Since the lower arms hinge on screw pins which self tap into part A5, how is that going to work with an aluminum A5 part?

The A5 part is the most fragile on this chassis and almost always broken.

Yes, I've broken several!  I have been using these stainless steel supports from Pargu, but still with the original screw pins.  A full aluminum A5 sounds great.
