[CM9000]

the fluorescent orange will come out as a red orange if backed with red. if backed with white it will look good. this rig is pretty sweet! would be a fun winter rig if I had snow...

Thanks, I can not imagine life without snow, even if you do not ride, it is awesome.
I had one can of each color, and painted all of them in this order:

Brilliant orange

Fluorescent orange

Clear orange

This time I'm testing Chinese tracks.

RC4WD Predator Tracks / Chinese Boom Racing

It has larger wheel, so it should have more speed.
Other parts are mainly the same, but the connections between them are designed not as good as the original.
Rubber is very tight, it can barely spin.

I printed smaller wheels, now the rubber can move freely and the speed is the same.

Here is the file for printing, in case you need this wheels.

This time I installed two 27T front motors and 15T rear ones.
The whole 6x6 system works perfectly. The printed adapter works good as well.

It looks solid, but there is almost a meter of soft snow under that ice shell.
