I just painted it on the outside. It produces some cool looking west and year marks. I sanded it so it would hold the paint better and it’s worked out pretty good. I used regular spray paint from the hardware store and vinyl for the graphics.
@@MtOlympusRC Cool! Thanks for the reply. I just took the stickers off and shot some matte black on the inside to tint the windows. Very sleek looking. However, I might end up with your method.
@@iamnoone6607 so I taped the windows with blue painters tape and with a knife cut it to shape to keep the windows clear. I enjoy all the little detail work though. Except when you paint the inside, that is a challenge for sure.
@@MtOlympusRC I have a new painted fighter body on the way from helidirect. The stickers are on a sheet. Dare I lightly sand it and murder it out with the matte black on the outside then put the front, rear, and window stickes on after? Hmmm...
@@iamnoone6607 I say go for it! I got a clear lizard body and tried to paint it from the inside out. It looks pretty sweet even though it’s not perfect. I also would say maybe add an accent color. Dark gray or do a matte with gloss black fenders or something like that.
I’m not sure what “in phase” means exactly but the one end where there is wobble has a wider mouth if you will where it attaches to the diff gear. I will be getting the one from hobby plus eventually. I’ve got a video coming this Saturday that I’ll go over all of this in more depth.
I'm about to buy this Cr-18 Evo Pro. To your eyes, what are the options this rig absolutely needs ? OK ! Metal drive shafts and a good steering servo.😊 Anything else ? Why did you choose the brushed version ? Lower price (than the BL) only or another reason ? Thanks for these vidéos !👍
I would get the drive shaft and servo from the get go. I ran it a ton this weekend and if you want to keep it budget friendly you could stay there. It’s a beast!!! I also didn’t know there was a brushless motor option but I have no complaints about performance on the brushes motor. The only small this is it comes in contact with the front upper links. Totally recommend this truck!
Thanks for your answer@@MtOlympusRC Yes, there is a brushless version that comes with a Furitek lizard pro and a Venom motor. The same i have on my FX118 and it works great.
I recommend a rubber sealed ball bearing kit, stainless steel gear micro steering servo, stainless steel center drive shafts, & stainless steel steering links. Then work on getting a second battery & 1" beadlock wheels & smaller 55mm tires for a far better center of gravity to climb better.
