pretty cheap still got plenty of yellow and orange left not so much red.
nice and sticky.
Look whats arrived for me
Its my first large scale
I decided on a FG BAJA 4WD for a couple of reasons
1: the bro had a Marder a couple of years ago and it never gave any hassle
2: Love the look of it
3: Price right on the money for me
4: going to be slated for this but i just dont like the look of the HPI BAJA
5: My mate wanted one as well. He got the FG BEETLE 4WD
I did my best to replicate the look of the IVAN STEWART rc truck
Driver was painted by hand and the rest of the shell was painted white
The 3 colours are vinyl sheets i got from e-bay easy to work with and so cheap + i can take them off and start again with different colours if i so wish. Heres some pics.
It was a non RTR model
Thats a big box
First look
Fresh out of the box
Accessories not a lot
Scale. Beside a Hyper TT
Paint started
Looking good
Current upgrades Ive gotten are
1: switchblade from jollyrodger
2: Hitec 5755 for steering
3: ACE 1015 for Throttle/Brake
4: Alloy servo plate
5: Vapextech 4600
6: Rovan pullstart and air filter covers
7: Layshaft brake upgrade
Heres my mates Beetle he went for the HERBIE look.
Don't know if it would fit but I've a brand new
Traxxas 3.3 engine for sale with clutch, flywheel, clutch bell, air filler all you would need is a pullstarter.
Pm me if your interested
Hi found out the size of the 5755 its
58.9mm does that include the screw lugs or is it just the body
as the servo tray is 75mm where the screws attach.
Hi guys quick one here.
Do I need an adaptor to fit a Hitec 5755 servo to a standard fg marder radio servo tray?
I've a fg on the easy and the Hitec is ordered.
Want to have all the bits for when it arrives.
Could you stretch to this?
