His new crawler after driving a ecx barrage gen 2 which is a great little truck.

Pilot finished
I had to reduce his neck a lot, but it makes him even more wild!
Working on interior and installing front and rear lights...

Awesome! Good to get out and drive. I'm wanting to get out, but it's heavy rain where I am. Hoping it dries up next week

We installed the wheels on the fj that I originaly bought for the d90.
rims: rc4wd Landies Vintage 1.55
tires: rc4wd Interco Ground Hawg II 1.55
But as it was rubbing, so we decided to flip them...And it looks super cool!

We went exploring old forgotten places this weekend!
No problem for the venture.

I made a winch for the venture. I started with the parts coming with the tamiya wild willy and enhanced it with pieces found here and there…
It could almost work!

While shooting our latest video, we found that very interesting piece of wood.
We had to shoot some photos there.
canon 5d + canon 50mm f1.4
