My new Aston Martin DB9… 1/10th scale – Hong Kong RC Nitro Car
I have always wanted a gas/nitro powered RC Car and today I bought one. Kyosho FW6 -DBR9.
I brought it home and sat watching the Malaysian GP reading the instructions during ad breaks. Its requires the new user to break-in the engine, before we can go racing. Apparently there is an outdoor RC racing track near the Excelsior Hotel in Causeway Bay, not far from here…
Right now the car is sitting waiting for me to go out and buy some batteries. I am not going to start it today as it is Sunday and these cars are noisy, however I may go down to the track to have a chat with the local racers, see what tips they have for the new car owner…
I bought what is known as Ready Set as in Ready Set GO!… all you need to do is buy batteries, fill up the tank, fiddle with a few screws to set the fuel mixture etc and then start it up… I checked the price on EBay and other places in the states and it came in about -US$150
The last the the guy in the shop said to me before I left the store, he said, very very SAFETY SAFETY… this car can reach speed of 40mph and it weighs 2kg… so no running it in the street, well just a little, but only in the eveing when there is no one around…
And then I stripped the stickers from one half of the car, I like it clean… well until I figure out how to make my own decals, then it will become the WHITE BOX PHOTOGRAPHY RACE TEAM
The engine .15 cc Nitro powered…
