Hmm paint..
There are so many good painters here.. mayby I should hand mine over to them.. they usuallt take 40-50 Euro for the job.. but it looks ... *mmm*

As for the twin rotor rc..

Just a thought....

If you were to build a single rotor that is bigger than the OS (that's 5cc) say 10 or 15 cc.
Make a good porting job (still staying with PP) and a nice big carb... hmmm...
Higgi seems to be able to fix the CNC job..
The rotor is not coold in anyway on the OS.. cant be that hard to make..
The rotorhousing needs a good surfice.. cant be that hard.. the do the "Nicasil" (very unsure of the spellin, sorry..) to many racecarparts...?!?

Just thinking out loud...

BTW saw that prices for the Rx8 in the Uk was starting at £19995 ....

I'd love to order a RX8,but eh... Anyway, maybe I can get my friend so far that he leases one, for the new company. ;-)
Magnus, wouldn't it be real hard to make a rotary engine all by yourself? I mean, adding sidehousings and rotors, ok. But making a rotor or a rotorhousing?
Well, if someone can get it done, I'd like a 4 rotor 1/10 26B... :-)

glad you got the box Bart and Mike! your're happy with it, i'm happy i made you happy (not because of the money, 29 is quite i steal i think and a little above the amount i payed for it...)
Margnus, it has got to be in your neighbourhood... Belgium and England are not far from here but where you live is someway further...
