stingray-63 Topic Author Offline Moderator Posts: 14526 Likes received: 5359	I recently received something looks like a gh2... 3 bodies are included. What can I do with it? Restauration or scratch or for spares? The bathtube is dead. I already have 2 gh2. 1 new and 1 lightly runned. I thought to make a super G with my runner and use these spares to custom a gh1. What do you think guys? rcmodelstory.over-blog.com/ Attachments:

stingray-63 Topic Author Offline Moderator Posts: 14526 Likes received: 5359	So! I tuned my grasshopper 2 shelf queen with a big motor bearings and yellow cva. The 2 bodies included was very hard to strip off. Several hours / days in soda to finish with a good and «long» blasting. Here is the result. Multiple repairs and holes are still needed. rcmodelstory.over-blog.com/ Attachments:
