That looks ace mate some serious plastiskills. I just brought afew sheets to mess with but doubt I could make owt ide keep lol.

Light bar housing is one thing ide like to try tho.

[Oh How Original]

I could do you a light bar housing if you want, for your experimentation?

[Oh How Original]

In keeping with the whole over engineered 'theme' of this particular toolbox, here's my locking system

 

[Oh How Original]

Well, rather unfortunately, this can't happen.

It's built exactly as I want so far, but I lined it up, and theirs no way of getting the body clips in the rear

So I have put it in the TF2, nobody seems to want to buy it, so figured I might as well carry on my plans for that, which was ultimately going to get a decent sized toolbox as well.

[Oh How Original]

I went for a run with this yesterday, I planned on staying out a while so took two packs with me, almost 5 hours later I was back home, really really good run, went somewhere a bit further into the quarry also, it's a never ending cralwers paradise quite frankly, such a great place to play!

I also got a nice panorama view from were I sat for a few minutes and just relaxed, this only shows a very small portion even as a panorama, but you get the idea you'll be best clicking the panorama shot and getting it full sized.

Only one breakage from the day and that was a bolt came out from one of the knuckles, no matter, stick another one in and off you go

Looks good

[Oh How Original]

It's not too shabby

[Oh How Original]

Had a little run today, it poured down all night and this morning, but it perked right up mid-afternoon so I thought it'd be rude not to go and get the G6 muddy

Did a little video too, you'll have to forgive it's imperfections, it's hard holding a big heavy DLSR while driving the truck and trying not to fall down the banking that was right beside me

I have ordered an action camera though, primarily for my Baja, but it should also serve me well in filming my crawlers and scalers too, so expect more footage in future

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Got it muddy, but not to worry, the joys of fully waterproof RC's, chuck it in the bath

Looks better muddy 

[The Dark Knight]

Some cracking pictures there  

 

I'm itching to get my Hilux build finished so I can run it!

[Oh How Original]

Aye, much better when muddy lol.

[Oh How Original]

Had another play out with this today, performed excellent as always.

Decided to have a little play on some rocks and some crawlery stuff today.

Then at the end I had a play in a sand pit LOL!

Looks a fun spot that does  

[Oh How Original]

Got loads of great places round here.

And my SJ4000 just arrived today.... But the weather is crap, having said that it has been for a few days in the mornings then it's got better mid-afternoon so I might be able to get a bit of footage today, but we'll see what happens weather wise.

[melvins913]

Cracking pics, love the last one

[Oh How Original]

The sand makes the wheels and tyres look huge lol.

[Oh How Original]

This is hopefully better and more enjoyable than the last lol.

Would appreciate some feedback as well still new to this whole filming malarky.

Also yes I do get my foot in the shot at one point, you'll have to ignore that, and their was nothing I could do about the lads riding the bike, so again, ignore that.

I'm not trying to make my trucks look full size and whatnot, I just want to follow my little adventures round and hopefully you guys enjoy coming along with me

 

[shaunm]

Thats a great piece of filming I only wish I could do it as well, what camera are you using and how do you hold it and controler at the same time, I just end up with crap footage that a 3 year old could have done?

[Oh How Original]

I'm using an SJ4000, I have it mounted to my TX's using the supplied mounts

Sometimes you forget to keep the TX focused on the rig though, which gets a bit annoying lol, I've also got my head mount for when I take the Baja out, which will be happening as soon as my replacement shocks arrive.

Thanks I'll look into that I've been using a cheep key chain camera with the inevitable poor results!

[Oh How Original]

The 808 is actually okay, I used to use one on my quadcopters, but back then I wasn't really into editing them so I never ended up uploading most of them.

These are definitely better though, so far I've been recording in 720p as well, going to try 1080p on the next run, I'm down to 356Gb of storage left on my RC drive though so got to go easy on filming size, will most than likely go back to 720p, it seems perfectly acceptable to watch.

[Geeze]

Excellent vid and the soundtrack really suits it too, can see where all the work went in

PoorG6 is starting to look fairly beaten on though, how's it all bearing up so far? Be interested to know how the boom racing bits in particular are doing for slop now they've had a decent runtime through them

[Oh How Original]

It's just very dusty mate, once it's had it bath, it looks all nice again... It's very dusty where I run, and on the little walk down what we call tipping lane, it's basically the road into the old brick works/quarry, so it's very stoney annd dusty, the trucks get covered after a few feet

Everything is holding up lovely actually, I've only had one bolt come out, which was from the bottom of a knuckle, probably from getting hit on roks and it's knocked the threadlock free, aside from that it's really nice stuff.

Hate the wheelnuts, but the rest is good
