It's ALIVE!






Well with what seems like the death of 10th scale electric around here, many of us have jumped on the 8th scale bandwagon. I just put the final touches on my new MP9e (MP9SE (part #31783B) with the Kyosho e conversion (part #IFW451)). The kit was so easy to put together (aside from some forearm pump from all these big screws!). The fit and finish of this kit is typical Kyosho. Pretty much stock except for some bling turnbuckles from the TKI kit and the alloy rear suspension mount and rear hubs. I also love mounting 8th scale tires compared to 10th scale. So much easier and the JConcept tires mate perfectly with their rims. So stoked to get out and try this thing! Only thing left is to get my bodies back from some sweet new paint from Darkside Designs (www.darksidedesigns.net)
