Granted ... neither the DF-02 or the Aero Avante might be everybody's favorite cup of tea. But personally I like them both. And since I already got a shiny and upgraded Rising Storm it was time for a shiny and upgraded Aero Avante.

But compared to my Rising Storm project, which included almost all DF-02 GPM Racing upgrades as well as some other after market products, I went a completely other route with this new Aero Avante project. Here I only allowed myself a few of the sensible original Tamiya DF-02 and TT-01 Hop-Up Options (No GPM, Yeah racing etc.) and tried to limit myself to parts I already had.

Well, I also had to but a new chassis and a new body but that's about it ... I think. The rest I already had lying around in my DF-02 and TT-02B spare part boxes. Both new and used.

I actually think it's gonna be a good runner, although the weak spots of the DF-02 chassis will limit the amount of serious bashing and jumps for me. But I definitely will enjoy running it.

Well, since a lot of the parts was either broken or worn out, it's up to discussion if this is a new car, with some parts re-used, or if it is an old car, with some new parts. A real Trigger's Broom paradox, right, Pete Wylie RC?
