New dNaNo(s)

[-J-]

Looks like they just released a McLaren F1! http://dnano.jp/index.html

I also noticed something interesting. If you go here:http://kyosho.com/eng/products/rc/series.html?series_group_id=100067 and look at the picture on right hand side of the page and to the right of 'dNaNo Auto Scale Collection SERIES', there's a picture with some of the autoscale bodies 'available'. If you look closely, there are 2 Porsche 917Ks that aren't out yet. One 'Gulf' schemed and another one. I've attached a picture showing what I mean. I've also attached screenshot from the dNaNo website of the McLaren F1. Hopefully Kyosho will put those 2 917k bodies into production soon! I'd love a gulf schemed 917k!

there are some jpn sites with pictures of way more dnano's than we have seen released so far. the gulf is among them.

i'm aiming for the gulf;)

Hello!

In the 2009 kyosho catalog there are shown... With the reference...
If I correctly remember, three different 917 including the Gulf.
I can also already tell you there's gonna be a black R8 and a black Carrera. ;)

For myself I have a silver R8 and it's so damn cool!

Any links or names of those sites. That would be pretty interesting. I think the gulf would be awesome! :cool:

I have the 2009 Kyosho catalog right next to me and there's only 2 917ks as far as I can tell. The No. 3 Sebring car and the existing No. 23 LeMans winner. How can you tell me that there's gonna be a black R8 and a black Carrera? Where'd you get this information from?

The Japs are way ahead of us. Here's a blog of a dnano fan in Japan. Go through the pages and you will be amazed!

I'm finding it difficult to read the little squares. :)

Hello!

For the black R8 and Carrera, just look at the reference given in the book.

For exemple, the silver R8 is DNX507S and in the book you'll find DNX507 S-B.

So, one Silver and one Black.

Same as the lamborghini with DNX502 PY-PG for Papaya Yellow and Papaya Green.

And so you'll find there will be much more than just the body pictured in the catalog. ;)

i think if you just check the popular Mini-Z styles, you'll find those are the models that will more than likely drop into the dnano lineup (JMHO)

I don't doubt that at all.

Anyone know where the NSX body in the blog comes from? It looks great! and I want to try one...

i think the japanese shops get special edition bodies that will never be released outside of japan. i'd say the only way to get your hands on those babies is to have a friend who lives there

[arch2b]

i've asked repeatedly about how to purchase those from jpn shop(s). i guess they don't want to share? it appears one place stocks them in good number from the pictures seen.

[Art Davenport]

Is it a Kyosho body? If it is, if I get lucky and cry on the right shoulder....perhaps I can get one? I hear that unpainted bodies and light kits are in the works for us in the US.

[arch2b]

it's unlcear as the sites are naturally, all in japanese. i guess we will have to wait until we can get a translator to help us figure out whats going on with these.

You can use google translate to help give you a general idea of what's going on. I use it often.

New 917K! :cool: http://kyosho.com/eng/products/rc/detail.html?product_id=105201

[MrNanoTrax]

Yeah I believe the chassis is the same on both cars. Arch2b and I are still waiting on the Gulf 917K! :D

[tinyrc]

Oooh, I like it! :) Better than my red one! :(

off topic but if you want to add your track to our subforum, please email me.

[RCP-Tracks, Inc]

Arch, I believe the subforum is for Kyosho/HobbytownUSA tracks only, correct? How much longer before you can start adding other dNaNo tracks? We will have a track set up for the Los Angeles dNaNo fans very soon. It will be set up with an official dNaNo lap timing system and will be open to all who want to come down to run. We will have extra dNaNo cars available for those who want to try them out.

[tinyrc]

Not at all J, anyone (with a track!) can get a sub-forum, it's just that the only US ones right now happen to be HTUSAs. Nano, who Arch was addressing, is an independent track owner in Thailand for example! :)

Great, thanks

[arch2b]

correct. in the interm, the only places with dnano racing were HTUSA's. we knew it would take a bit before clubs popped up etc.

anyone with a dnano racing series/track is welcome! please email me and i'll get you taken care of. :)

Some future dNaNo bodys hopefully. I know the green Murcielago and the grey 917k is a repeat.

Woah...As I was quickly scrolling down I thought that the green racing Mazda was the old green racing Jaguar - anybody remember that one??? That one would be sweet for a future release!!!

[arch2b]

i've been patiently waiting for the gulf to appear in the release news...

[edhchoe]

The Orange Murcielago... Yummy.... A Must have for me.... Definitely...
