I'm more excited by the adspec 😁😁😁
congrats this fox is like a shelf queen.

Two birds with one stone! I already have an ADSPEC+ Plus, but still wanted the regular ADSPEC. This inclusion with the Fox made the trigger easy to pull, since basically the ADSPEC was free based on what was paid for the Fox. I'd like to extract this system to use when I build my 2011 Avante. However, the car did not power up last night so I have some investigating to do. I've never seen a Fox up close before, let alone seen inside. It looks like a nightmare to service 

Sure it is. Like the hotshot 1&2. I dound the only hop up the front sway bar. I never ran mine. Maybe I should...
I put my adspec on the egress. Because I wanted to keep the ko propo esc and the graupner c4 my dad installes on his avante. Wich I restored some years ago. 
The only things I never found to have it like it was are the rubber protection shoes on the uniballs for the avante. I am sure that it's a tamiya hopup but never found infos nor item number. 

Today the postman brought me a Tamiya F103rs chassis 58156. Which somebody put a Nokia body kit on. Very excited about this one because it appears to be really decked out with a full set of bearings, aftermarket shock, aluminum motor mount and a very special limited edition 23 turn Tamiya Type R racing motor. Also has a brand new set of rubber tires, nice ESC and all appears to be working and in good order. Also has quite a bit of aluminum up front including the steering knuckles and the lower front suspension. Next to the teardown and cleaning.

Really nice todd. But it's not an aftermarket shock. It's a tamiya one wich appeared with the ta03f pro. With the carbon chassis hop up too.

Thanks Flo, I have a really nice NOS Futaba Magnum radio set to add to it!!

For anyone: The tires on this F103 are the really nice (IMHO) rubber ones but they sort of feel like they should have foam inserts in them. (weak sidewalls...)

No experience with these at all on F1 style chassis, are folks putting inserts in or what?? Thanks!

I have several f10*chassis included groupeC but I only ran the f40 and the f103 rs. All have only foam tires. The f103 did only donuts in my hands but the f40 was fun before the crash

57780 Countach!
