RC4WD Gelande II D110 Truck Kit w/Hard Body build/review

[-SCXD90-]

The type of light kit you purchase has no correlation to the ability to turn on the lights remotely. Not one bit.

[HARDRIVE]

I found the lights i needed but darnit i cant find it now i forgotten to book marked it lol
The lights i found is complete with signal lights wired to the receiver
Brake lights headlights crap
I wanted that for this project

Just got out of surgery, so I'm using it for an excuse to avoid schoolwork and drive my SCX10

[HARDRIVE]

What the heck did you do run over your foot

I always erase my history on my cp
Its a must when yiur hiding something

How'd you know it was my foot? And no, I was playing wall-ball with some buddies at school on April 22 (the day before I left for New York City for a band trip) and one of them jumped onto my foot, cracked the nail in half, and pushed the left side into my toe so I needed surgery today. I get to use the elevator at school, I get to leave all classes 5 minutes early, and I already got one girl's number, but I stretched the truth a bit.... Told her I

I wish it comes with buckets for these lights

[-SCXD90-]

Just order a kit of buckets to use. On my D90 I'm gunna use the lenses out of Mini-MagLite flashlights. They work amazingly, everyone I know who has lights on their rig, they use something similar to the Mini-MagLite buckets. And make sure you get whit lights, and not yellow or soft white, because pure white will get you better visibility, just don't stand in front of the rig, you'll loose your night vision for about 2 minutes......mi speak from experience. I have 7.4V going to my body lights, 63.0V to my overhead light bar (yes, I had 9 9V batteries on my roof rack at one point........) and 6.0V going to the bumper lights.

My RC car was brighter than my neighbors "built" 1999 Wrangler 2dr with a 50" VP light bar and halogens on the bumper and in the headlights. Little thing was bright... Now I've ditched the 63V overhead bar due to COG issues, and when I cracked my bumper in half I lost the bumper lights. It's not even brighter than the running lights now....lmao

That's why you don't pick up large amounts of sandrock. I'm sure it did hurt..... But an ingrown toenail stays with you. When I was in New York I had to buy a new pair of shoes because something was oozing out of the infected wound....Blegh back in track now lmao

Hobby parts is a really nice store. I personally buy all of my stuff from either Omni Hobbies (though they do take longer to ship, took about 2 weeks for a 6oz part to travel 135 miles.........) or my 3 local hobby shops. Yes, I'm that lucky I have 3 hobby shops, 1 in walking distance, one in biking distance, and the other one takes about 30 minutes to drive there. I still consider it local

I'm sure your mother would be proud......

*Ahem cough totally cough not cough porn cough*

[HARDRIVE]

Lol not porn
My wht mom? Lol i live alone

Any way im going to order those mip hex drive
Hopefully itll stop stripping my screws lol

[-SCXD90-]

Just pay a little bit more attention to how the hex is seated in the screw/ bolt when you're tightening the screws, and the screws will be less likely to strip.

I'm in Ohio right now and I found a Tim Hortons, and a Circle K.
If you've seen Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, you'll appreciate the sighting of the Circle K.

And I have wifi from the Wendy's from across the street so I'm happy. Back onto the road, where you travel for 15 miles without using the steering wheel..... Lmao. Drive drive drive, make minor steering adjustment, drive drive drive, repeat 5620559572.6 times and I will finally be halfway there!!!! LMFAO

[-SCXD90-]

And I've also decided to take the easier route and I'm going to build a 1996 Ford F150 king cab long bed. The contours should be easier to master, and I love the squarish look. I'm making it white with black rims, and dead black windows lol

[HARDRIVE]

I wish i have a tamiya semi truck lol
I have always wanted one of those
Like the king hauler
But im not experienced enough to build one
I think next year ill order one rtr from ebay lol

[-SCXD90-]

So I'm sitting here in my hotel in Ohio, about 20 minutes walking from Kentucky, and I'm thinking about how amazing it would be to have a RC with me for the trip. Something that can go fast on the beach, and something that can crawl in the city. So I thought, I'll need a solid axle for crawling, and double wishbone for street racing.

Yeti. Yaasssss

I'm gunna order one in about 2 months, and I'll use my SCX10 power system as a donor. 2200kv on 4s on the beach. Proline sand paws, overdrive in the front, and hidden place to drive it so I can freak people out with it lmfao. That would be amazing..... Just need to decide on a servo for it, probably HiTec or something.

[HARDRIVE]

Just ordered those mip hex set for this project
1.5 2.0 2.5
If i do like it ill trash all of my tools and moved on to mip full set of tools

[-SCXD90-]

When will they arrive? Glad to know you've made the switch

[HARDRIVE]

Ill have it this week i hope
