Hello to all the readers and builders of the forum and the RB7! I firstly want to say how excited I am about building this fantastic RC F1 car as im sure all of you are too! As a subscriber the story began about 3 or 4 years ago I was surfing the net for a really good quality RC F1 car and upon seeing a Kyosho Ferrari F2007 1/7 scale I was sure that this was the one I wanted and I wanted it so bad. The detail blew me away, the size was incredible and the engine (particularly the Red headed engine block; it was just icing on the cake. I needed one "not wanted" needed! So how dissapointed do you think i was when I found out that it was only available via magazine sub, and that it had ended, also the fact that I live in Australia meant that it was off limits to me. Yep!! I cried.....until......i was watching the Aussie F1 on tv, a commercial came on; and there it was, my eyes jumped an inch out of my head.......not only was it Red Bull, my favourite team but, a 1/7 scale RB7 made by Kyosho and "yep" that same Red headed engine block, oh wowww! I would have given my right arm just for the car alone; and the engine head alone; which I cannot find anywhere mind you, so the engine head itself must be exclusive! Well anyway I almost tripped over myself getting out of the lounge chair and then tripped over myself falling into the car to get to the newsagent! Well I did make it safe to the newsagent, grabbed myself a copy, and now here I am. Man am I happy! Now comes the pateince of waiting another 23 months to complete but hey If it took 4 years to build id still be happy, yes too it is exspensive but, im sure all RB7 subscribers and builders think that its all totally worth it.

Well thats it from me for now, this is my first post, certainly not my last and I wish a very happy fun build to all of you!

Best regards, Mel

Welcome Mel

Hello peep's!!
Thank's everyone for the very warm welcome!!!! I have to say that this is one of the best site's/forum's ive ever been to! There is no negative comments, no body swearing at each other, no proud individuals full of themselve's critcical of other's, it's a great place where you can come where you can share your story's, your knowledge and enthusiasm with other people with the same or similar hobby and interest's! I see so many great idea's and valuable hint's and tip's, it's also great to see so much encouragement from people toward other's. Well ive just started to build the first parts of my RB7 'the wing's, I hope it'll be easy to build cos of the size of the thing; I usually build 1/72 or 1/48 scale, so time will tell!
Anyway that's all from me, I have to go get busy building and waiting for my next Red Bull part's; they're only about 2 n a half weeks away you know!! Ciao for now!
