Build Thread Lost in a Tekno MT410

Look in book. No

But don’t I just take this lower pin out and move those shims around? View attachment 201157

Yup.

Planning to get the raptor body cut later tonight, it’s the boys bday though so I gotta make his favorite chicken tenders first


Trying to decide on paint though for the bronco. I’m asking for trouble too .

First thought was something like this….

Getting myself in trouble with this

I would swap the red for blue or green though most likely.

Yeah, the second one would be my pic

I should probably get another body coming

@Littlemotor can probably give ya some pointers.

I like that second pic. And I really like those gray overlapping graphics. With Createx candies, they are a dye based candy as opposed to a pigment based candy. Dye based candies darken with each layer. You can actually do green candy and turn it black with enough layers.

So you could recreate that effect by cutting out the liquid mask for the sections where the overlapping areas are, and are darker. Spray them, then unmask the rest of those graphics and spray everything again. You'd end up with that exact effect, with draker areas where they overlap.

The Bronco R is probably the coolest thing ever.

Here is the raptor body

 

[luke66]

Raptor!

 

[WickedFog]

Needs to go forward 1/4"

Needs to go forward 1/4"

I also have to account for range of motion in the bumpers cause we both know they gonna get used

That's what I was looking at. It looked closer to the rear bumper to me.

 

[Littlemotor]

Well damn son-you’ve been busy!!! Looking tremendous!!

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

Second bronco body has been ordered

I’m going to attempt the Baja paint job on one, will just do something simple on the second to just bash with.

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

Body mounts are done

[DavidB1126]

I think someone's happy

 

[majin]

Can't wait to see it painted

 

[Greywolf74]

Man, that thing looks like a piece of junk. You should just sell it to me and be out from under it!

Awesome build dude!

 

[Tunedfrog]

Well the esc mount isn’t going as planned… to the scrap pile I go

Every rig requires the MacGyver touch.

 

[WickedFog]

Looks good on there mayne! Can the front body pins go down one more notch? She's got a tad bit of squat in the rear. Or am I crosseyed again today?
