Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / February 2006Thundershot?
Here is a long shot. does anyone here own a Tamiya Thundershot? If so I would need real size scan of both sides of the Motor mount in order to make my own out of aluminum. It is very important that that scan be of high resolution but not altered in size. TIA MacPhreak > Here is a long shot. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > order to make my own out of aluminum.

I've got a Thunderdragon - actually with an MMS(?) slotted aluminium motor mount in it, IIRC, though presumably I've got the plastic one somewhere in the box - but it's in my parents' loft! I could probably get my dad to unearth it and then scan it next to a ruler or something, so you can check the size... LMK.

If you can scan and print a rough copy you will be able to see if it is right or not. Scanning the Aluminum one would do just as well too. >>Here is a long shot. >> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > LMK. > Jonny Maybe I will try to make a fully adjustable one instead. I will have to take a hard look at the chassis to see if it's even possible.

I had to carve a hole in the casing opposite so I could see the mesh, and then cover it with tape. Jonny |
