My latest RC - Vatarra Twin Hammers kit
Twin Hammers by MBBlat, on Flickr

Transferred the brushless motor from my Wraith, which has been re-powered with a sensored motor. I'm not overly impressed compared to the Axial models, for a starter there are no spare screws provided at all, its already on an upgraded spur gear and I cannot get it to shift into top gear.
I liked the look on this kit a while ago. In the end I just bought a thunder tiger mt4 G3. Great fun and apparently bomb proof but I broke an arm on its second outting.

Cool! I remember having on as a Christmas present when I was very young. I did a very bad job on it - I may have to buy the kit again and have another bash...

Went to the toy fair at Donnignton today, came back with this! My first GT Spirit model and I have to say I'm impressed, very well detailed and the colour (Amethyst) is fantastic. Will post up a few more pics if anyone is interested.

Here's a picture of my 1/8 scale HPI Trophy Truggy Flux that I got for Christmas along with my 1/10 Tamiya Hornet to give some idea of scale. I run the Truggy on 2 x 2s Lipos and its very rapid.

I was thinking about the mt4 g3, but i am worried that this http://www.ttamerica.com/ might mean parts will no longer be available. Any thoughts?

They are very well done: I've got the M3 they did recently, the detail is stunning.

It's not a finished model, and it's not finished in itself, but these little 20mm Oerlikon cannons were a fiddle. They have a turned brass barrel and pedestal, with photo etched brass hand wheel, cradle thing and breach block which also includes the ammunition drums and sights. There are 20 of these on the model. Next up is the 8-gun Pom Poms.

That would be a lovely subject!

These are for the battleship HMS King George V. I've recently started on the battlecruiser HMS Hood too which is similarly equipped!

Oerlikons, Pompoms and the world's most useless AA weapon, the UP Launcher as it happens - the latter I think was envisaged for divebombers (maybe) and fired little bombs into the air which floated down on little parachutes for the attacking aeroplane to fly straight in to.

Exoto's.....

Utterly utterly stunning models. Way out of my price range although I am on their mailing list.

Those are awesome. The attention to detail in your photos is outstanding.

So much want.
