Doom's Redcat 1/18 Scout II

[PewPewChris]

I got the steel front links from Redcat when I ordered mine, since I knew the weight was biased to the rear. Not sure how it climbs stock cuz I installed the links straight away, but It climbs well! So must have worked

It is decent crawling out of the box...just super light so it feels like a toy to me...I need some weight on my ladies lol

Look for the white stripe on one of the black wires. That will be your signal wire

I wish there was a white stripe...they are all black, all the same. Lol.

Decided I should probably have a build thread for this one, yes I have been slacking lately. Had to back and find so e previous pics to do this right.

So now back to tadays addition. Been wanting a roof rack but easn't sure what would fit. After looking at my Traxxas TRX4 Land Rover, the size looks about right, so I looked for roof racks that would fit the TRX4. I ended up buying one from Injora.

It comes with a light bar wich was an added bonus. First step put light covers on LED rack. One scew attaches to the back of each cover to hold in place.

Next up attach light bar to roof rack. Held on with four screws, nice bonus feature, it has alignment pins to help keep them straight while you tighten down the screws.

Next up drill some holes in the roof to thread the bolts through. Yes, I know I did a messy job, I was being lazy.
