**PLEASE NOTE THE PINNED COMMENT** RC Car body using Neodymium Rare Earth Magnets

[@rivierarc]

##DO NOT USE MAGNETS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE BODY IF USING LEXAN, JUST SIT THE BODY IN POSITION AND PUSH DOWN##
I think the magnets on the outside squeezed the magnet and glue too much causing the bleed. Hardbodies will be ok though

[@michaeldorich4485]

That is a neat technique. Thanks for showing us that. Good luck on your speed runs.

[@rivierarc]

@@michaeldorich4485 cheers... if you do this technique please note the not putting magnets on the outside of the body. I think that may have screwed the paint.
I have done it loads before without magnets on the outside and never had issues. Apologies

Nice demo Glenn. I have been interested in using magnets for body mounts on some of the rally bodies however have lacked the brain power to work it all out. Problem solved 😁

I have done it loads before without magnets on the outside and never had issues. It does look much cleaner though

[@All_RC_Fun]

Cool demonstration. I might just use this technique. Thanks for sharing.

Nice demonstration mate!!
Those neodynium magnets are also good for slowing your water meter down..... or so I've been told! 😉
Yours seemed to hold that body better than what I've seen in the past mate, great job! 👍 👍 👍

[@rivierarc]

oooh, I haven't heard about that.... may have to investigate just for research purposes obviously lol.
They are good, I use them for the CC01 as well and lifts that off the ground too... Still use body posts though, so much easier lol

[@AddamsPlayground]

Really cool way of doing that. I may have to borrow that in the future! I need to find those magnets first, they are strong!! Best of luck getting the car ready for some speed runs! Take care Glenn and have a great week!

[@rivierarc]

@@AddamsPlayground no worries Addam. Please take note of my pinned comments though..

Such a nice kit! Love that shell. I have the Team Blue Groove. Found out the hard way I doesn't come with a wing.

[@rivierarc]

@@Paul__FC Oh, really? This one is the L&L one. Nearly went with the TBG one initially

[@jack-o-trades]

Thanks for the shout out and brilliant video. I’ve never tried magnets on bodies but like your breakdown in the process.
On your paint issue how long ago did you paint the body? Some paints take awhile to fully cure and the solvents in the ShoeGoo may have reacted with the paint. Just a thought.
Looking forward to some running videos of your car. Cheers!

[@RCBirds]

Very interesting method Glenn. Thanks for showing. Good luck for you, too.
After reading the pinned comment, I like to add one thing. Shoe Goe is a little bit cohesive. It might react with the colour and cause the bleeding🤔

[@rivierarc]

@@RCBirds Ah, ok. It may well be the combination of that and the magnets squeezing it all together that may have done it.. anyways, this body will probably get destroyed in the speed challenge runs 🤣

[@RCBirds]

@@rivierarc probably...😉😁

[@rivierarc]

@@RCBirds 🤣🤣 i hae plans for the 2nd body once, or if the speed increases 😁😁

[@RCBirds]

@@rivierarc as you already have an aerodynamical body, now I'm really curious

[@rivierarc]

@@RCBirds i will see how the Porsche survives but I wouldnt mind going longer wheelbase towards the end of the challenge.
It might not be an M chassis body 😁

[@FastFreddyRC]

Thanks for the demo! Pretty cool not having to use the body pins. More realistic for sure.

[@rivierarc]

@@FastFreddyRC thank you. Yeah, it does look more realistic. 'If' i get good speeds out of it then it'll be good to see how it holds up in the inevitable tumbles 🤣
