The two tone green with the white accents is just phenomenal! I absolutely love this build!
Thanks bro. It was Breydon's idea to go green to match the motor 😉 I guess I need to let him pick the colors for the Turbo Scorp 🤪
 
What a stunning piece of kit! Loving the green body with the red shocks!! :)
Thanks. I considered de-anodizing the shocks and dying the plastic parts black. But I am really glad I didn't because I love it like it is.
 
Not going to be on the printer for a few weeks, but I designed a stand to set the car on.

Where can I buy one? I plan on getting one and racing it. Also, is it cheap like a 13-year-old could buy it? I have only ever had one kit and it was my first hobby-grade RC. It was a Traxxas stampee 4x4. I need to get more kits 🤪🤪
The Ultima is out of stock everywhere that I have looked, but https://www.rpphobby.com/default.asp has a lot of the Kyosho Legendary kits in stock. If it were me, I would get the Turbo Scorpion, Scorpion, or Beetle. The Ultima is a bit challenging to get the electronics in.
 
thanks. did you see my other

Did you see my other post asking if I should buy an XMAXX for 300$ that includes everything even 2 4s batteries, a charger, a chassis dust cover, and shock dust covers? Do you think that it would be a good buy?
 
Thanks Bill.

Do you have a pic of the others you built?

Yeah, I have a thread for each of these as well in the buggy forum.

My Beetle build, on a Turbo Scorpion chassis, instead of the standard Scorpion chassis.

And the latest is the Javelin.
