Love the video, the warning at the beginning, and the presentation of your painting techniques... thanks for the video! I noticed the steering servo horn was at a forward angle, but didn't see where the tires were.at that point... if it isn't at close to a 90 degree angle when going straight, it may be tough to get equal steering both directions... I knownthia was 2 years ago, so maybe it is sorted by now, but I just found your channel. I would suggest turning the servo around, so the output shaft was at the front... might require shortening the rod by screwing the rod ends on farther, but whatever can be done to mechanically center the steering and servo horn angle would help... like I said, might have been sorted by now, or maybe in that shot the wheels were turned... Anyhow, thanks for the video and paint tips...off to check out some more of the channel... Cheers...

Thanks! Glad you got something out of it. That servo position was set. I didn't use to bother centering servos until I could power the vehicle. Now I have a servo tester and can pre-center. There should be some run vids of this rig this summer. Have fun surfing! -"Angry" Dave

I went with a 3652 brushless 3250kv Hobby Wing motor, paired with a 50amp ESC same manuf. And I tell you that little Kyosho will take it without any problems whatsoever. Although I would recommend the Fast Eddie Bearings (Kyosho Baja Beetle Ceramic Rubber Sealed Bearing Kit). The Super Scorpion 2.2 rims sold by Kyosho that fit those bearings in the front, and the 12mm hex conversion for the rear, with the wide rear Kyosho 2.2 rims. The chrome look really nice on those, both satin and gloss. Then for tires I went with a narrow 2.2 ProLine Dirt Hawg 1073, and the wide 2.2 Dirt Hawg 1071 in the rear for road or packed dirt. And for sand the Kyosho Sand Super 2.2 for the front, and a ProLine 2.2 SlingShot in the rear #10101 a 1.68 x 3.85 paddle tire. Like I said I've been beating mine like no tomorrow and no problems at all. Maybe needs a wheely bar since it will flip onto its back if you yank the trigger of course, so its a bit over powered but overall its alot of fun. I do run the standard 5000 mah 2s LiPo and not a 3s which the ESC and motor can technically take, but cant be stuffed in the battery bay without some hacking. Besides the 2s keeps the motor nice and cool, and I really dont need to plug in the fans I have over the motor except maybe on the hottest days as a percaution. I love that retro vintage aluminum frame buggy, it used to be a top dog racer, and its pedegree shows, especially on a track.

That sounds pretty wicked. I'll definitely be looking into some of those parts. I want aluminum wheels and I need a couple good 2s batteries anyway, so I'll make sure they fit this. I'll have some run footage of this up sometime this summer. Thanks for watchin' and commenting, stay safe and have fun. -"Angry" Dave

Great job on the paint! Love the driver. But aren't you supposed to attach that to the inside of the body? And you didn't put a bumper on it? I am undecided on going with the Scorpion bumper or the Beetle bumper. Not sure I like the Beetle one covering the headlights. Currently gathering parts to build one of these. Just waiting for the Turbo Scorpion to come back in stock because I want to use that chassis for the build.

That came out bloody sweet 👍 . Colour choice is spot on . The kyosho beetle is hopefully a kit I can pick up at some point, just a cool shape and style. If you like using the ps yellow, try using the Pearl clear first then do the yellow. Gives a really nice pearl yellow which would look sweet with the blue you used .

@@AngryDavesADULTRC 👍 . Try the pearl before any base colour gives a cool look. Pearl before black or orange is also very nice. You can also vary the finish depending on how many coats of pearl you use. I tried a few tests on some lexan off cuts to see how it looks before doing a body
