After years of fiddling with several connectors and adapters and a I've started to change all connectors to Dean plugs.

Modellbau Lindinger has the Opel Vectra FF-03 for 129 € and in stock. 10 € posted to Denmark. https://www.lindinger.at/de/detail/index/sArticle/9778299

The Tamiya x-pin tires are for the Blitzer Beetle and the other trucks of that chassis. Number 50450.

Fantastic job on the body! Did I understand it right that the whole body is just painted white? All the coloured parts are stickers? Awesome work. I probably would have totally messed it up.

Red ist the perfect colour for the MX-5 or Miata. Turned out really nice. I know what you mean. Just spend 140 Euros for parts for several cars and must say it is a little bit disappointing to see that parts when you could also have a complete kit for it.

Running my Dirt Thrasher in the backyard after converting it to brushless. Unfortunately my driving skills are currently as bad as my mechanical skills. Therefore the car has to take a lot of crashes, which leads to a lost screw again.

Good work with the masking. Even if there is only a bit fading, I'm sure it will looks amazing.

Replaced the left front steering knuckle of my Bullhead and installed servo savers.

Absolutely lovely. Such a nice looking body and nicely done. Also love the video, especially the screaming tires in the corners. 👍

Looking good. I love these old Nikko Trucks. I'm always tempted when I see one for sale online. Do you change the complete electronic?

Some bits for several projects, like seats for my scale crawler and servo saver for the Bullhead. And a engine dummy for my Sand-Blitzer-Beetle-DT-02-Thing...

According to the description, the first one can replace the receiver antenna which not so much needed in times of 2.4 GHz. The second one is just for the look.

For a second I thought you have a 1/10 hardbody Beetle. That would be so cool. Nice project you have there.

I know what you mean, but you should mount it. It prevents dirt getting into the gearbox. I forgot it on the rebuild of my Dirt Thrasher and when I changed the motor I had to clean the whole gearbox from fine dirt. Luckily I've just ran it once or twice in the meantime. I don't know if there are alternatives for that simple part.

While browsing my phone for a specific picture, I found some pictures (and made a GIF of them) of my Denmark holidays two years ago. There is not much in RC driving that can keep up with driving on the beach. Especially with a Blitzer Beetle.

Took the Dirt Thrasher for a spin in the garden. After 15 Minutes of running three screws were loosely. I think this is a tribute to its age.

Hi all! I'm searching for suspension arms suitable for the DT-02 chassis. These arms should have a width of approximately 54 mm hole to hole, 1 or 2 mm more or less is still suitable. I know that TB evo II arms and DF-03ra arms will fit the DT-02 chassis but I don't know the width. Maybe anyone can help and know some arms that will fulfill my requirements or can make some measurements. Thank you!

I would go with PS-2 red and check the covering after each coat. If it is opaque I would paint it with one or two coats silver which makes the red brighter. Finally I would spray a coat of black as in my opinion it looks better when the shell is mounted.

That's how I paint my cars.

Nice project. This is something I would like to build by myself. Will follow this.

How about this one? Just came across this when I was looking for something else. https://www.ebay.ch/itm/ASAHI-JP-Lamborghini-Countach-1-12-Funk-FB-1980er-Sammlerstueck-RAR-/184168859191

Actually over the last few days, but finished this afternoon, I gave my Dirt Trasher a complete cleaning and build in my first blue alloy parts. Love this car.

Two blue GPM front knuckles for my Dirt Thrasher.
