Going over my finished build of the TWS CTS chassis kit. A budget friendly chassis kit that is a better alternative to the Tamiya CC-01 and CC-02 trail trucks. I used the Tamiya Ford Bronco body on it.
Great looking truck! Also enjoyed your explanation of the build and the parts, much appreciated. First of this brand I have seen built up. I have seen the kit in box over at SBG if I remember correctly and RC Everyday's if I am not mistaken. Anyhow, thank you very much for the upload, it is cool to learn more from the experienced rc truck builder. Cheers :)
I would like to learn how to paint the Tamiya box trailers. So many videos about the Tamiya trucks but NO ONE AT ALL posts videos on how to customize/paint the trailers. Do you know of some industry reason why expert hobbyists seem to withhold trailer painting information?
Great review! Have you tried MST CMX / CFX chassis kits? Actual tws designer was mst designer before. MST has middle and front motor chassis options and metal chassis C rails compared to tws ones. I have a mst cmx jimny j3 and did not have any issue with 1.55 injora wheels on front.
I have not tried any of those kids yet but hope to in the future, I've heard great things about them. The knuckle screws were just barely touching the inside of the wheel and that's why I had to dremel a little off the wheel, the MST must have a slightly shorter knuckle
@@oddsandendsrc ok thanks have you tried the orange Jeep body on it? thanks for sharing, been wanting to find a good chassis to build a Tamiya hardbody Pajero, this might be the one.
@@JusRc I have not tried my China JK body on it but I'm sure I could easily make it fit. You would have to modify the rear shock Towers and make a custom wheelbase with new links and drive shafts but this chassis is very adjustable
The post-braces came with the kit, and I got the magnets off of eBay, if you get magnets like those get a little skinnier than I did. The ones I got are too powerful!
