CC-01 Wrangler
 
Heres a CC-01 I just finished. My first CC-01 and I enjoyed the simplicity of the platform and all the hopups. The RC-Channel stuff sure is beautiful! :shock:

I was originally going to build a Hummer HX concept KingCobra variance but figured I would just stick with the basics, the Jeep Wrangler.

Parts:
Tamiya Hummer Jeep Wrangler Tamiya 84071
Twin Hammers Servo
Twin Hammers ESC
Tamiya Sport Tuned Motor
Flysky FS-GT3B Radio
CC-O1 Boca Bearings
Tamiya Lighting Unit
1.55 Mickey Thompson MKZ tires + spare
Gear Head Krusher Aluminum Wheels
GPM racing Aluminum Steering kit
Junfac Pajero Front Skid plate
Junfac Middle Skid plate and Rear 4-Link
Pro-line Rectangular Roof Rack
Pro-Line Accessories
Pro-line Truck light Kit
RC4wd Wrangler cowl vent cover
RC4wd Wrangler Aluminum HingeTrim Kit

I just have to finish wiring up the lighting (using an Axial 5>1 for the light bar) and single Leds for everything else. Also need to mount the front LEDs and perhaps two more Junfac metal lights I have as fog lights.

My goal was a Safari Style Scale vehicle. I've never dedicated so much time to a body its going to be a shame to run! Nevertheless I built it to sell so no biggie.

The good news is that the lights and roof rack will protect the 4 coats of Sand TS Tamiya paint on the roof. The Body itself is almost a battleship gray.

Once I get the lights wired I'll take her out into the wilderness where she belongs and get some proper forced perspective shots..


Cheers,

That looks really nice and all the scale bits really make that body pop! Suggestion would be to paint the molding on the side for the fender flares flat black. I think that would look really good. "thumbsup"

I haven't seen the scale hinges before, nice touch. Looks good (at least prior to the first run!)

I considered it but got sick of all the details. I've got 3 other trucks to finish! Wiring up the LEDs tonight. :lmao:

Thanks. They're CA'd on so it'd take quick a bit to take one off. The buyer is getting spares too. "thumbsup"

finished the LED setup and unfortunately the Tamiya LED light controller can't put out the milliamps or voltage or whatever to power the 5 light string in one port. So I had to supplement it with a small 2 port one. No biggie. The main lights turn on and off with a switch while the 5 LED bar turns on by plugging in a wire.

Shes ready for listing. I think I'll offer the Accessories if someone meets my buy it now price.
:bigthumb:

The lights are bright enough to light about 20' down the hall.

Looks great! I agree on the black fender extensions, if you get around to it. Looks really good as it sits though. The lights came out great!
