Hello!

Post by Rowhider »

Hello everybody,

I'm Cyril, 36 years old.

I'm french and a big fan of Yankee products. It's always a pleasure to discuss with people with the same passion.

I came to RC models with a first Tamiya F189 in 1993, later to 1/8th buggies and later to the 5th scale racing.

During my youth, I passed a lot of time to dream about Yankee models, the ultimate models for me :mrgreen:

No 1/4th scale yet, I've sold my 1/5th FG car to finance a new project.

I've discuss a lot with Laurent, the boss of Yankee-Legend: I would go for a brushless model.

He realized a conversion kit capable to convert any Yankee model in electric.

I'm tired of Zenoah engine noise, and the brushless work better and better each year.

Laurent build a Renault 21Turbo Brushless in 8S: a true bullet, and more than 20min of run with 6000mha Lipo (with a big attack!)

I post a topic 2 days ago about the VHRC meeting of Saint Affrique, but not activated… (very long isn’t it?)

They are a lot of pics of the first Formula 1 ¼ scale demo for 10 years and a movie. Same thing regarding GT cars…

Rowhider here is one of my newest Yankee car, It has the F-7 engine which in my opinion it's not a Yankee without a gas engine, again purely my opinion.
