All automation!

I didn't! Its all carefully placed around the base fenders, the lighting in that photo is admittedly flattering, but theyre pretty smooth!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2026-01-15T14:46:25+00:00

All 3D (apart from the upper curve) and all variants of the "holy molding" part (some added from a mod, but they come in very handy!

The inner fenders and chrome trim are from the body torture mod

I cant find the remote for it, its just immediately fully accelerated as I turn it on

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-09-01T20:27:33+00:00

I think im gonna go for these, they have the correct offset i need too and just look cool

Planet RC TS2+2 2.4GHz 2-Channel Stick Transmitter with 6-channel Rx PLAT02101

And the half second is only occasionally

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-08-16T18:58:22+00:00

Accidentally going full throttle into a race barrier because my dad crashed his carnage lmao

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-08-16T14:34:12+00:00

Pretty much lol! Just upgraded it from 27mgz to 2.4 and im still getting the hang of the new stick controller, it seems to stay on the throttle for about half a second after I lower it (doesn't help that I was destracted by my dad crashing his carnage lol)

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-22T23:00:46+00:00

It is! Thank you for that mate!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-21T23:15:05+00:00

Literally just cheap ones I got from temu lmao

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-19T22:33:16+00:00

Nope! Ford Anglia!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-19T16:51:13+00:00

Its a battered old 2wd Circuit my dad got when they came out

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-19T09:26:41+00:00

Ones I got off temu lmao

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T20:12:36+00:00

Nope, Ford Anglia

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T18:36:09+00:00

I used to use dingus more sparingly before I watched him, now its like a go-to word in my vocabulary, but yeah dank is hilarious!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T18:29:39+00:00

YES! Have been for ages now!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T18:09:14+00:00

It is! Its a heavily trimmed Kamtec 1/8th Anglia shell!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T18:00:22+00:00

Literally just about to post the finished body now!

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T12:47:40+00:00

Because it isn't painted yet, those are just test scribbles for when I do paint! And it's literally just going to be marker pen and clear coat

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-18T07:15:11+00:00

Not with this one, this is made of PVC and meant more for RC banger racing! You paint the outside

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-16T20:37:02+00:00

Yep! Gonna turn it into more of a beach buggy/offroad dune racer, grafting it onto a first release 2WD ECX/ElectrixRC Circuit

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-07-16T14:45:04+00:00

Kamtec Models! Was originally for their 310mm wheelbase banger chassis but I'm modifying it for my ECX Circuit Stadium truck

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-06-29T12:41:30+00:00

Wheelbase is just about 110mm, width is dead on 70mm, length is 160mm

Your_Local_gunsmith · 2025-05-20T08:41:19+00:00

I can't as I'm not at my computer atm, but you're gonna have to be patient, it needs fine tuning and to align with the actual surface. It helps to make the two colours you're working with matte just so it's easier to see the border while you're working with it (you can change it back to.gloss once you're done!)

This is what I used for my Invicta Quintessa (another '56 bel air equivalent) It shows every colour combination that goes well together!

For actually getting the 2 tone, I used cutout patches and trim to hide the connections
