Default Why?

8x8 ………… HEMTT from our comrades at Banggood

Something different



This is heavy, mostly metal . But the opportunity for paint details is incredible.
Took longer for disassembly than to paint. Wanted a bit of contrast and pop, but not too much.





Hang up and Drive

Just finished testing the lights and motor sound…… Once I figured out what the instructions forgot to mention, it all actually worked!

Now another couple of hours to tidy up and hide the wires . Yes pictures soon, but I’m going to pull rear diffs and tighten them up.
