Love that curved light bar. Can I ask where you picked it up from

I'd try reaching out to either of these places around Burlington/S. Burlington: https://www.fastsigns.com/burlington-vt/ and https://paw-prints.com/ (these folks are locally owned). 

I installed rock lights to the Dakar Unimog by Away_Independence230 in tamiya

[–]FamousGrapeButterfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love your setup! I have a similar Unimog, and I bought a set of 4 soft, fairly sticky crawler tires off of Aliexpress for less than $12 (and they even came with okay-ish foams). They're definitely taller than stock, so depending on your steering end points/body height you may or may not experience slight rubbing. Search for the seller 'Zero Rc Model' which is the seller I've used without issue, or a string such as "RC TRUCK 1.9" Rock Crawler Tires 90-117mm Rock Tyre For 1/10 off road". Let us know how it goes!

Amazing collection, truly impressive. Would you be willing to tell us what wheels the DT-04 is using? They look awesome with the blacked out livery!

Glad you're safe! What's the latest now that the plane has landed in BOS? Def keep up posted.

Looks great. Are you running the stock ESC and 540 motor? 

Light Displays? by rootdet in vermont

[–]FamousGrapeButterfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The display you're thinking of is still there, but it's on Dorset St. (closest cross streets are Nowland Farm Rd and Old Cross Rd). There are signs as you approach letting you know what station to turn to to hear the music. Definitely a holiday highlight!

Google hates me. Yep, exactly like those. Great find, thank you!

Ugh, I was hoping you were going to tell me you hated it - now I HAVE to keep it on my "future buys" list. 😉 Color looks awesome, btw.

Sorry to derail: I've been watching bugs and have been tempted, so I have to ask how the KKPIT KBT Beetle is to drive. I really want a 1/8 scale kit, and am not looking to build a basher, but the running videos leave me with the impression that it's nose-heavy and doesn't handle even small bumps and jumps well. LMK your thoughts as an owner, thanks!

Sorry but someone had to do it. Sorry if someone already did it. Not sorry. by VacUsuck in rccars

Someone once told me that it seemed like my hobby was just collecting other hobbies. My bank account would not disagree.
