Dave,

Hey I actually experienced 90F in Montreal once, around 1970, July 15. Then it got back to earth quickly. LOL

I like the name, but expected something much smaller, on the order of at most 1% the original. That's what caught my eye so I looked in. Good luck with it
Matt,

glad to have you post! I hope you enjoyed your time up here in the 70's.

Well, the Nanorare is "two steps" down (~78%) from the Tipo in size. The Picorare, which I already built as an electric with no gear, is three steps down (62%). A 1% of the original would certainly fall in the "nano technology" realm but would be called a Yoctorare That doesn't sound very cool though so a 50% version, which is the smallest practical size I can think of, would be called a "Femtorare". That sounds cool enough. [8D]

Thank you and I did enjoy it. Actually went swimming.....

Had, and still have family in Montreal. Back then you didn't need anything special to cross the border. Now you gotta have much more paperwork proving you are you.

Yoctorare? I agree that doesn't sound nice....

These little builds are loads of fun, aren't they? Very quick building.
