New Spectra G arrived! ???
Well at last my long awaited Spectra G with Tempest head arrived. After getting my choirs done I settled in for some assembling and I'm confused already. I ordered thre Tempest FAI head and the head parts are all labeled Tempest Fury. I did a search on this topic and there seem to be a few who have kits labeled the same but when I go to galleries and look at the heads on other peoples Spectra G/Tempest they look very much different. Including the fact that these parts don't match the drawing for the Tempest head in the manual I'm wondering if I've got the wrong parts.
Any thoughts?

You've got the head you ordered ! Unfortunately , MA is EXTREMELY slack with their updating of the manuals; d/load the tempest FAI manual from the MA site and use it to build the head ....
You'll love the way it flys ..........

Thanks Peter, your right that is the correct head. Someone sent me a photo of the head completely built and it matches my parts exactly. I found drawings for the FAI on MA's web site so I think I'm set now.
Everyone tells me I'm going to love the way it flys.

Same problem here with my new kit, but a revised drawing was in the bag with all the head parts, did you not get that?
It confused me for a while, but then again most things do

There`s a great manual for the Tempest Head put together by Excalibur a user here and at RR.
You can find the manual at? http://www.hotwheels-club.com/Photos...20Complete.pdf The advantage of his manual is that he has facing pages with the diagrams repeated on every page, so you only need his manual for putting the Spectra together. You should have it printed double-side. There a thread on it labeled "New Spectra G owner/tips" at RR or search for Excalibur posts.

That's not the new Tempest head though, this is what the confusion is, it has changed since that manual yet it has never been updated.
Anyway I have my head built now, no problem
