The blue machine!!
The blue machine!!
Here is the blue machine that i have been working on for some time now.
Stripping down and cleaning.
And a little more.
We cleaned all the parts then we moved on to the chassis.
Got the chassis powder coated
Put it all together and you get this...

Re: The blue machine!!
Yeah i agree the white looks good but i couldn't get white arms so i died eveything black, and i am pleased with the results.
Re: The blue machine!!

Re: The blue machine!!
Nice T, i like the color..but the powder coat might give you some temp issue on the motor as it does not aid to dessipate
Heat from the motor plate.
Just a thought though, always check the temp during operation.
Cheers.

Re: The blue machine!!
the powder coating looks great. I like the black dyed parts with it and the white towers
what body do you think you will end up using?

Re: The blue machine!!
An update to show the body. The body has arrived and is looking good. I have used the orignal rc10t body mounts and the front have been moved into the center a little bit more. The body will be painted soon. Also i have added some new blue screws everywhere. Rear RPM motor cover(blue).

Re: The blue machine!!
Your truck looks nice, but I have 1 question. How do you keep your battery pack from shifting forward? Do you have some kind of stop that can't be seen in the pics?
