Popular Post Ag100 Posted February 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2023 Started the build on this today, incredibly detailed, really well designed, but very fiddly, absolutely tiny parts and screws, not helped by me having a tremor in my hands (Essential Tremor). So far enjoying it, a real challenge. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex97 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Either the shocks are really small or your using bolt cutters! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Freddy Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I’m thinking about getting one of these in a couple of months. Will be interested to see how it goes together. 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ag100 Posted February 14, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 14, 2023 A bit more done, fitted the metal panels to the roll cage, fitted the front suspension and mounted the motor in the gearbox mount, this really is a great little thing to build. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ag100 Posted February 15, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2023 Electronic tested and calibrated, I have the Furitek Lizard Esc (with Bluetooth module), Furitek Nano Rocket Brushless motor, Das Micro Sanwa micro receiver, then fitted to the electronics tray. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ag100 Posted February 15, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2023 Rear shocks fitted and built up rear axle and drive shaft and all fitted to the truck now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ag100 Posted February 15, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) Starting to look like a truck now, one hitch, got a servo but it’s just too big, even after taking the dremel to it, so need to find one that fits, but with metal gears, as I have read that the stock Orlandoo one strips easily (no servo saver on these).

Yes, a 1/10 in full kit form would be great, the suspension on this is great, so on a bigger truck would be really good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCake Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 That looks so good! My eyes arent good enough to make something that small so would echo them making this 1:12 or larger! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
