|  Patriot Rock Rey Kit
Let the build begin. Nothing crazy. I've been lurking for awhile to learn what issues needed addressed. I'm learning to love the painting side of this hobby. It can be frustrating, time consuming, and expensive. But with each body I see improvement. Rock Rey kit!

I had to make a simple plate for the ESC to double side tape too. It's mounted to stock ESC mounting holes and I added 1 bolt to the rear of it for support.  This rig is huge! Tires just seemed too big as well. So I swapped them out for something smaller.    Last edited by raul shabinguez; 04-01-2018 at 11:01 AM. Reason: Update |

Painting is a love/hate thing. Roof was where I learned what not to do. The body and hood came out much better. I left the sides too empty. I planned on putting the losi supplied stickers in the big empty areas.....Dumb me, I never looked at them before painting. Decal colors don't match my paint job and I think they're ugly. So no side decals. ��   A couple first run pics. This thing is awesome! I must have forgot to loktite rear driveshaft screw. It fell out.   Last edited by raul shabinguez; 04-01-2018 at 01:34 PM. |

Installed T-Bone racing front bumper. After a battery of bashing, the bumper seemed helpful. I landed nose first many times at speed. The only thing that broke was the stock bumper support. I need to figure out a way to reinforce this area.    Last edited by raul shabinguez; 04-01-2018 at 11:47 AM. Reason: Update |

Spare tire mount added. I had an extra bomber wheel/tire to use. Looks badass and should help fly flat. I had to add a couple of odd and ends. Like washers and another nut to mount wheel to my liking.     Last edited by raul shabinguez; 04-01-2018 at 11:42 AM. Reason: Update |
