Nah, made by a German company called Robbe.. most of the functions are controlled by toggles on the TX, only the brake/reverse lights are auto.. (no sounds though) there are also two servo outputs that i didnt have a use for..

Pretty pricey though as you need the module, bank of toggles and the TX.. can use the trailer set which i also have (via an IR connection)..

The one thing i didnt like about the MFU was that if you went round a bend the indicators came on, even if you weren't making an actual turn..

Here's the module: http://www.hobbydirekt.de/product_info.php?language=en&products_id=79543&XTCsid=3864291d40d2626a9366765d3a02eb4a

I wish I would have if I had known there was one. I'm more interested in F1 racing that NASCAR. F1 racers have skill to be taking corners at the speeds they do, in an open wheel car, compared to going in circles in a closed frame vehicle lol.

I never said it wasn't easy. It just seems to take more skill to guide an open wheel race car thru hairpin turns and high speeds. I know I wouldn't be able to do either without the proper training. But I'm sure the Hyundai could hold it's own down a straight...against some Fiestas lol

Indeed. It's just so beastly, how could you not bring it up in any situation? If I am honestly annoying anyone with the Hyundai, I will stop referencing it in every conversation lol. Just let me know. I am only joking anyway.

it aint got nothing on a 1993 toyota paseo

i think nascar actually takes more skill than f1. while with f1 you are going from 0 to 1000mph in a single second, you have to remember that computers are keeping it in control far more than the driver. nascar on the other hand has very little tech involved. i mean, they just got fuel injection this year! no power steering, tiny brakes (i remember reading they were like 14" steel discs someplace), 3400LBS and doing 200MPH around the corners 3 inches from 4 other cars, that has to take quite a bit of skill.

Yea the tranny was fixed. Had to bring it back in 2 weeks later to get one of axle seal leaks fixed. Runs like a top now. If I can just get another 60-80k miles out of her, I'll be happy lol

Rallying owns everything on skills IMO..

Been looking at alot of tamiya vechiles im glad they re-released the Toyota Brusier, but it's over $700.
I have a feeling the bruiser is the ultimate rock crawler being solid axle. It's also a 3-gear transmission like the Tamiya F350.
