anything RC, cars, trucks, bikes, helicopters, planes etc..
« on: April 07, 2011, 10:33:00 pm »

Its an addiction, both myself and the missus and between us we have about 60 cars, 4 lorries, 1 bike, 3 helicopters, 2 planes.     Car wise I mostly I prefer the vintage Tamiya and Mardave stuff, but I have many makes and I will post some pics but the easiest thing I can do is give a link to a showroom page on Tamiya Club. Showroom Link,  We do however race too, Mardave 1/12 V12's at our local club.

4 of my favourites.



1 of the lorries, all the lorries are my missus' and all have light and sound function


A scale off road truck Im working on at the moment


My helicopters (Lama V3) and Blade MSR



I raced RC bikes years ago (1/5) but now I just have this 1/8 one for fun.


Oh and I briefly owned a boat inthe past..


Please have a look through my Tamiya Club showroom HERE at my other cars etc, and event photographs.

I also have a youtube account with many videos... http://www.youtube.com/user/biggusditchus?feature=mhum

if the heli has a gyro? then it will probably need the gain adjusting, there will be some form of adjustment regardless, somewhere near the motors, hope this is some help?
