It took a bit of work to get it to fit, especially without body posts and clips.
The bumpers took a while to figure out, too.
I also chose the paints just by looking at a colour chart on my phone.
Everything was ordered "blind" off the internet, a bit of patience and a lot of hope. lol
I'm pleased with the result though.

Nice work on the body! Maybe some scale details next? Equipment and accessories? Have you looked into a figure for the driver/passenger? I'm looking for a good one to add to my "Camel Trophy" build.

If I’m honest, I’ve just got a RC4WD gelande 2 that I’m currently building. I’m happy with this as far as appearance goes, just going for performance improvements now. I’ve just installed a MMP with castle 1900kv crawler motor, but the motor spins in the other direction. I can’t get it sorted. Bit bummed out about it

I think you just need to go into the programming on the ESC and change the direction of the motor spin and you will be all good.

I’m running it sensored so swapping the wires is a no no. I don’t have a laptop either so need to find someone who will let me install the castle software to reprogram the MMP.
Fortunately I’ve also just received a slash platinum edition so I’m not without my projects / alternatives if one vehicle is out of commission :-)
