A little different.

[Tunedfrog]

This is different for me but I love it. The motor mount will be here tomorrow.

What car is it?

 

[RustyUs]

HSP, HiMoto, Redcat Racing?

 

[CertifiedMike]

Fazer?

 

[biggman100]

My first thought was HSP Flying Fish, which is also branded as the Redcat Lightning, but, without seeing the chassis, I could be wrong. If it is, I've had a few of those. I actually like them, even if upgrade parts requires ordering through AliExpress and Temu.

 

[Tunedfrog]

Kyosho MK2 Fazer.

 

[RustyUs]

Kyosho MK2 Fazer.

Those are not Kyosho wheels and not a Kyosho body, is it?

 

[Tunedfrog]

No, amazon specials.

It looks nice... congrats!

Actually, the wheels are definitely Redcat, from the Lightning EP drift car. That same style was also used on the HSP Flying Fish, and the Exceed RC Drift Star, except on the Exceed and HSP cars, the spokes were colored, and the outside of the rim was chrome. The last pic is of a Redcat Lightning. I know more about those vehicles than I ever thought I would. I even have a post on here that showed my entire HSP collection that I lost in a house fire a few years ago.

Since i have been asked about them a couple times, and have seen a few posts about them, i figured i would post what i have. Ill start with my buggy, that is a mix of parts from HSP, Redcat Racing, Exceed RC and Hobby Park. I actually own 3 of these:

My Touring Car/Rally Car. I bought this as a full chassis kit without electronics. I still need to get a body for it. You can buy any of the HSP cars, MT, Buggy, Drift car, or Touring car, as a chassis kit:

I purchased them from amazon but they didn't state as being Redcat or anything else.
Regardless, it works.

Does it look like the ones I listed above with the body off? They are sold under several different names.

The chassis is Kyosho MK2 Lazer, I bought the builders kit a few years ago.
As far as the body and wheels, I really don't care who manufactured it.
Honestly, I'm confused as to why it matters?
There's nothing that looks like the pics you posted.

Oh, ok. I asked in a previous reply what car it was, and, I didn't see a reply to that, so I was assuming based on the wheels is all.

Ok , I get it now, I was confused there but I'm back now.
Yeah, the chassis is a Kyosho MK2 Fazer kit I built some years back but never like the
El Camino body I had on it. This one is much better.
The motor had a bent shaft so not sure how fast this one will run.
It was pretty damn fast with the old motor.
My motor mount as usual is lost in a snow storm that never happened between here and Portland.
I'm sure you know how the USPS works sometimes.

I keep looking at the '57 Chevy, but I have never really had a use for on road or drift cars. I've had a few, but I always turn them into rally cars, or trade them off for another SCT. As for those wheels, just a heads up, they do tend to break easy with harder hits (I had a habit of running into my neighbors truck with mine). I completely destroyed a front set trying to jump a small-ish ramp once. If you watch though, sometimes Redcat has them on massive sale.

She won't get ran very much at all. I'm not really into road rigs.
I'll run it at the tennis courts just to try it and then park it.
