Description
Let's take a recent arrival from Rapido, the fantasy Santa Fe Kodachrome CF7 out for some break in laps. I've always had a soft spot for CF7s- having grown up around two locally. The market needed a kick in the pants to get a nice model out to market, and Atlas + Rapido answered the call! I'm still awaiting the Atlas model to check it out, but for now..This Rapido offering is a sharp road switcher. It's a bit light, but it tracks well, and the sound + lighting suite is solid. With their habit of motor failures- I have concerns over the long term performance, but for now, the engine did great during filming and further running.
