Watch out, I think it's about to jump that wall/fence. This being Australia, there's probably a pool on the other side, too.

The pool is behind where this photo was taken.

Having recently finished a Novafox, I was in the market for a 4wd buggy. 

Was eyeing off a super hotshot, but in Aus they are $380, so was finding it hard to justify the price. I found a Boomerang kit for $190 AUD so snapped it up instead. 

Colours:  blue ‘diamond finish’, some chrome paint that didn’t work lol. Just random paints from hardware store. 

Everything is stock apart from the sport tuned.

FWIW I had issues with the X8 piece letting go of the screw on my first builds. This was due to not building them properly.  I didn’t screw it all the way in. Anyway......

 

to remedy that i superglued the **** out of it when building newer ones. 

My buggies are abused and all is well so far.

Hi,

Just finished building a Novafox I got for Xmas from my kids. 

Ended up putting a hobbywing 1060 in for the lipo cut off. 

Sport tuned motor

Drilled a hole in the top of the case to allow somewhere for heat to escape as it kept shutting down under thermal after a bit. I won’t be running it in the wet.

Went with metallic green and gunmetal grey instead of boxart. I always like to be a little different but for colours to match the stickers. 

Goes great and was a really fun build. Next I might look to do something like a Blackfoot.  Just wish I could get a King blackfoot.
