I've never seen color shift paint for rc. You guys even it before?

Spaz stix does, not sure if they have what your looking for but they have some.

You can do it with hydro dip im sure though (if nobody has what you want) , just another option to think about ?

?I think I'm going with this one if I do it. If i go with a chameleon i think i can do it myself. Or I'll send it to Greg and let him put his spin on it

This doesn't do it justice, when backed with a mirror chrome or silver it pops like crazy

[siblues]

Thanks Z I am going to toss a few more decals on the suspension and frame or windshield. I think the decals could have matched a little better but it looks close enough for me

I just noticed the rear torsion bars are on wrong.I would have caused some damage if I didn't notice before taking her out tomorrow.I am waiting to get back to work so I can start planning on a big bore.

This thing is going to drive me nuts.The front driveshaft pin didn't last 5 minutes it tossed it again and now the servo is not turning to one side and the light bar is not working.I will dig into all of this tonight.Here is a super short idle video it needs to be leaned out a bit I think and the idle seems way too high.

Man the more I look at selling mine the happier I am lol

 

[Seandonato73]

May be just a tad high on idle. Transition sounded ok.

 

[siblues]

I lost a front pin so it was on 2wd.I already fixed the servo issue and the pin will get done tonight so maybe tomorrow I can have some more fun.I really need to figure out a way to get some action videos.

SWent to go take it out today and smelled fuel started looking around to see what it could be and noticed the fuel grommet ripped.How the hell does that happen after it is installed lol.I am not having great luck with this righ so far.

 

[peterj59]

too tight and rubber dried out

 

[siblues]

The lines are a few weeks old and the grommet only has one tank through it this year.I think the fittings and DDM Tygon lines are a bit too big for the grommet.

Wow .never seen anything like that happening in that short of a time ,usually it takes quite a few years before those gromets break down!
I guess the material is cheap!...
