description  Hi all, this here`s my new built MP. The first RC I wanted was the Hornet but somehow ended up with the Big Bear. So I thought i`d get myself another then fit a hornet gearbox to make it more reliable. Well it works out that Tamiya had already done this for me So i`ve customised the body to make it more Big Bearish. It`s ballraced and is using a 40C lipo wich proves to be a laugh to drive. Hope you like the pics.

Thanks stevepi. All I did was give it a good wash with mild soap and then make sure to wipe off any water marks and dust off. Apply light coats of paint. Good luck!

Great looking truck! I am looking to paint a metallic MP body, did you have to prep it first or did the Tamiya paint stick to the chrome ok without any prep??

Nice lunchbox Is it the chrome body you have painted with some shiny paint? It looks great

That's a brilliant idea! Never thought of people doing that with the 'metallic' versions! SUPER COOL!

Thanks for the feedback guys. The body is a metallic special painted with Tamiya TS-72 clear blue 500 spray with clear on top. Same as what I used on my Hot Shot heat sinks. [Click here]
