Description
This is the AFX 1969 AstroVette LMP12 Gold/Black LTD Mega G+ HO Slot Car
1969 was the golden age of exploration. Moon landings were no longer the stuff of sci-fi stories. Space explorers had become real life superheroes. Besides taking a trip to the moon, astronauts also had one particular job perk to look forward to – driving a ‘69 Corvette. Thanks to former Indy 500 winner, Jim Rathmann, astronauts in training were given the use of new Chevy cars every year for the whopping sum of $1. Apollo 12’s all-Navy crew picked the Riverside Gold Corvette Sport Coupes. All three were identical save one “touch of uniqueness” – a small rectangular plaque on the car’s fender. Each driver’s role on the spacecraft was engraved in the color assigned to them for their mission: red, white and blue.
The AstroVettes – as they were called, came with the thunderous roar of a 427 Turbo-Jet V-8 engine, four-speed wide-range transmission and 390 horsepower. The gold body donned black-painted “wings” designed by iconic stylist Alex Tremulis, evoking the colors of the Apollo 12 module. This AFX car represents the Corvette used by Lunar Module Pilot, Alan Bean. To Alan, the fourth person to walk on the moon, said driving his AstroVette was the one thing that compared to the thrill of flying through space.

Mega G+ Chassis
This chassis doesn’t just go faster or handle better than the competition. It wasn’t just built with the ultra-low, narrow dimensions of the original Mega G to continue the reign of the most realistic HO cars on earth. The Mega G+ Chassis is smoother, more consistent, and more intuitive than any car we’ve ever built.

Includes One AFX 1969 AstroVette LMP12 Gold/Black LTD Mega G+ HO Slot Car | This is the AFX Sauber F1 #24 C44 Stake FY Mega G+ HO Slot Car AFX Exclusive Limited Edition Sauber F1 Collection. Sauber F1 C44 #24 FY Introducing the new Sauber F1 C44 #24 FY with an official license from Sauber Motorsport, AFX used the sponsor logos, livery details and body specs of the real life cars to create the most realistic HO scale version possible. The Swiss company, Sauber Motorsport, shot off the starting line when it was founded in 1970. After its debut in F1 in 1993, Sauber carved out a name for itself. Not only were they one of the few traditional, privately held teams in the sport, they set standards in the design, development and construction of race cars to this day. Sauber Motorsport conducts full and model-scale testing in the factory’s state-of-the-art wind tunnel providing ground-breaking innovation in the field of aerodynamics. The company’s evolutionary skill and artistry helped earn its induction into the exclusive club of teams to have competed in more than 500 F1 races. In 2022, Sauber Motorsport celebrated 30 years in the sport and continues to dominate both on and off the track. These cars blow AFX’s already top-of-the-line detail and design rendering out of the water. Their multifaceted logos and deeply sculpted bodies pushed the boundaries of car construction to heights never before seen – much less attempted, at such a small scale. The 2024 Sauber F1 C44 #24, driven by Zhou Guanyu alongside Stake 1 teammate Valtteri Bottas in #77, is built with a lightweight carbon-fiber monocoque featuring a Ferrari-supplied 1.6L V6 turbo engine and a redline of 15,000 RPM. The C44’s most dramatic shift may be the change from push-rod to pull-rod suspension, lowering the car’s center of gravity. That, coupled with its aerodynamic features - revised sculpted sidepods and a complex front wing - help maximize downforce while minimizing drag. In 2024, Zhou Guanyu has solidified his reputation as a talented driver, showcasing strong performances behind the wheel of the Sauber F1 C44. Zhou's resilience and racecraft have enabled him to consistently challenge for points finishes, moving up the leaderboard with increasing confidence. Zhou's future in Formula 1 looks promising as he pushes the limits of the Sauber F1 C44. AFX honors the advanced technology and craftsmanship of the C44, from its aerodynamic lines to the precise cockpit replica, making it a fitting tribute to both the car and its driver.

Or optional floats (sold separately) can be installed for takeoffs from and landings on water. Best of all, the option to add SAFE Plus GPS-enabled technology and the Landing Assist Sensor (LAS) makes learning to fly even easier than ever before!
