Pair of K's

My K1 only needs the body to be cut out and the wing attached and my K3 needs the engine, steering attached to the servo and the throttle and brakes hooked up.

I ran a tank of fuel through the sirio 27 today and I loved that thing. More so I love the break in instructions:
Quote:
FOR A CORRECT SETTING OG THE SLIDING PARTS IS REQUIRED 15 MINUTES ABOUT OF RUNNING TIME, IN COURSE OF EXECUTION KEEP A LOW RPM ZONE BY AVOIDING SUDDEN ACCELERATION.
That's the entire break in instruction from the factory though I believe I will to a tad more than that while breaking in.

Here are some pics:




My K1. If you'll notice the coupler between the header and the pipe looks kinda funky as well as the length of the pipe looks really short too. It's an experiment I am trying and I am thinking it's gonna run like a raped ape at high speeds.


Partly complete K3

I'll post more pics later tonight. I am working on the throttle linkages right now and my roommate is building the shocks. It'll be 99% done tonight. The only thing stopping it from running later is the radio receiver which will be here on Monday or Tuesday.

Don't you wish that your buggy can stay clean like that after a race ? Nice score on the K's

I love the instructions they gave you on breaking in the motor. Fantastic!

The one for my Storm was a bit better but I was utterly stumped on the first line of the instructions:

1. Start the engine.

Once I figured out how to start it, it was all good =)

El - PLEASE, post some side, top and front, rear pics of the K3!!! I would like some closeups as well. I want to see what the external viewable differences are, as best I can.

I thought the K3 would have had laydown steering servo. Hmmm...

Looking tits man!

C, check my gallery.

besides, all buggies look the same.

the new Lightning Pro v2 has the laydown steering servo (throttle too I think) and I don't know if I dig the linkage routing.
