injora 1/10 rock crawler

[Jimmayy13]

Hey so i bought a 1/10 313mm rock crawling chassis with motor and tires an want to build a nice crawler. It currently has a 35t motor in it, metal control arms and driveshafts. I'm looking to get a esc, servo, transmitter and lipo battery for it any suggestions out there and has to be waterproof.

Which color did you get? Did it come with a metal servo tray? If not you will want to grab one, the plastic tray flexes quite a bit, eating up a lot of your servos performance. I had to buy mine separate.

I got the black one an no it didn't come with one I got to order it. Do you have any pictures of yours? And what are u running for setup?

[Jimmayy13]

For everyone with hard bodies on there crawlers what did you use to prep an paint to get a good finish?

 

[WickedFog]

I use acrylics on my hard bodies. Scuffed the body first with grey scotchbrite.

Any particular brand acrylics with out it being runny like the last paint I used?

 

[WickedFog]

I use an airbrush to paint mine. Parma Faskolor, Createx, or any airbrush acrylic works. I also use Spaz Stix, but that is an oil based paint, and very stinky.

Would tamiya paint work on hard body?

 

[Doom!]

Pretty much any paint will work on a hard body. just make sure to you use one type of paint to avoid problems (acrylic, lacquer, etc).

 

[Jimmayy13]

What about primer

 

[Doom!]

On a hard body I would recommend it.

 

[WickedFog]

I just use Krylon automotive primer on my hardbodies.
