Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler Day Body Paint Job 23 Attachment(s) So you have seen the Purple Lavender Chevy half Cab Body on this COMP TRX4 Build Thread I have been using that now is complete with lights and im going to make another cab for daytime use with the same set up with the Hot Racing bumper mounted in the back and 2 tone color White Top and Yellow Bottom on this Paint Job im using the Pro-Line 1978 Chevy K-10 Clear Body for 12.3" WB Scale Rock Crawler Body and im Taking my Time and applying 5 Coats of Gloss Sun Yellow Spray paint and 5 Coats of White on the Top of the Cab and the Backing on the yellow and 5 Coats of Modge Podge Flexible Sealant.... and today the Temperature went up to 72F in Nashville so I started to spray the yellow and got 4 coats in so hopefully tomorrow the temp is good and i can finish the yellow and start the white but it will take about 5 days total to put it all together but it will be a solid flexible body and ill keep posting the picture this week of the progress and also the axle housing changes Hoping to have her ready by next week for an extensive crawl on the rocks!!!... Buzzzzzz..... Buzzzz...... |
Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler New Cab Body Paint part #2 15 Attachment(s) Buzzz Again.... Another beautiful warm day here in Nashville so the painting on the Second Body for my Honey Comp Crawler continued and I got all 5 coats of yellow and was able to get 3 good coats of white for the Cab roof and backing the yellow for a smooth finish! Now what's left is Flexible sealant will be using Modge Podge its used in paintiing for canvases but has been my go to for sealing car bodies keeps them strong flexible and prevents chipping..... |
Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler Build Full Mod Can’t wait to see it mounted up! The contrast of the white roof on the yellow seals the deal for me[emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler New Cab Body Paint Job Part #3 7 Attachment(s) Ok so this is #3 of 4 parts where I am painting and modding a daytime body on my Comp Crawler TRX4 the paint job was going beautifully and the days have been warm and that morning I had taken the body out and warmed it up for a couple hrs but the paint can was in the shade cold so when I sprayed the last coat of white it bubbled up and messed up what was going to be a perfect paint job....... but I went ahead and wiped it down let It dry and put 6 coats of white to get it flush with the other parts of the white roof so hopefully when im done sealing it, it will look good!!!!! Buzzzz.... Buzzzzzzz...... |
Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp CrawlerNew Cab Body Paint Job #4 16 Attachment(s) so im done early with this Paint project and even though this was to be my crash and bash body for the honey comp crawler for winter I wanted to do a pristine paint job and it started well but got bad and then it stabilized and this is the end product and Im not overly proud of this one so im looking forward to hitting the rocks tomorrow and giving it some character!!!! Buzzzz....... |
Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler Final Mods #2 26 Attachment(s) so I finally got the axle housings swapped out for the Yeah Racing alloy ones they fit perfect and the rig runs and sounds good with the Hot Racing gears overdrive front stock in the back all that is left will be the electronics and I will swap out the Reefs Raw 500 servo for a Reefs 777 Servo and the Quicrun 1080 for the Holmes hobbies BR-XL ESC im hiring the rocks tomorrow and ill post a video on the grade this rig will make!

Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler Build Finished But Not Done! ARRGGHHH... BUZZZZZ.. 15 Attachment(s) ok here is the final product running the new gears in the back and the alloy axles and it runs smooth but it is now too heavy!!!!! you can never win !!!! but you can try again and I think ill win eventually so im pretty sure in my case its a simple solution remove the brass differential cover and the should let the weight distribute evenly to the axles and wheels still having more weight in the front than in the back!!!!! Buzzzzz........ Buzzzz......... |
Re: RCBee TRX-4 Honey Comp Crawler Build Full Mod Good job!!!! I 100% know the feeling of hopefully winning eventually. You’re not alone. [emoji106][emoji106] |
