Love this truck. I just put a brushless system in mine. So much fun. I just checked my green body and neither bar is painted. I think they’re supposed to be green. Anyway I love the orange. I may double up and get another then paint it yellow. Having a green one and yellow would look good side by side. Awesome video. Looking forward to the next one 👍✌🏼
I've been eyeing these - I noticed that without the battery you only have the green option, not too fond of that shade. I ain't looked, figured they were too new to get parts for yet. This would work for me (as I really don't need or want the battery) maybe paint it metallic blue like my truck or I've seen someone paint their Walmart Bronco body Spastic Candy Apple - looks good.
0:59. Came out looking really good. Like that you pained that section black. Pet peeve of mine when that's various colors in the body. That's not how real SCTs look. The orange looks good too. Well done. Anyways, have you have luck with Krylon paint on lexan? They say made for plastic. So i recently painted my first lexan clear body. I bought RC lexan paints. They worked. But in a scrap piece from cutting out, I ran a test and painted it matte flat black (just a random krylon paint I had. Probably the same one you have). And I've kept that scrap piece as a test. I've tried bending that piece, scratching it. Seeing if it flakes like like what you read online it'll do. Nothing. It's fine. Looks the same. Starting to think the RC paint thing is a rip off when there are cheaper alternatives. Just seeing what you think.
@@SteveSoper1979 Thank you! I wasn't sure how the truck was actually supposed to look but I figured I was close. Krylon paint will stick to the lexan paint. I painted the black area with lexan paint first and let it dry. Then I applied the krylon on top of it. When I rolled the car in the video, there was minor scratches on the black area and very little came off. But it is an easy touch up if I want it to look good again.

You want the chassis to bottom out rather than the shock. That way it's not smashing the shock piston inside
The chassis still bottoms out. Just not as bad as before with the old shocks.
Where did he get the clear body and how much was it ?
The link is in the description! I think around $50.
Thank you man, I see it now.
Man, Arrma really know how to juice you with part prices.
33% of a new car , wow
@@PeterAlbury-b4l Yes they do!
