Interesting build and thanks for sharing.   Not familiar with this brand. Plastics look much better than general Tamiya cars other than the TRF series.  Mixed on the factory body design.  May be time to try a non-Tamiya build

Didn't realize they had a kits , thought they were straight up electronics company, have a few of their motors.

Nifty build me likes it.

Oh yeah, Blue is better can you say Makita?...

Yah, I kind of got bored of Tamiya, you know the diff, gears, hubs, etc are recycled between various chassis so after a few, it became a "haven't I done that before". That is why I started looking into other brands, for a different experience. Although my every other car is still a Tamiya these days. Most recent was a WR-02CB, then this LRP, and then a Frog next week. 

Plastic, well, IDK at the moment as I said, it is rather hard to work with but note ad456's comment on it as well. 

Not sure what you mean by the body design? The box paint job? It was supplied as a clear body, so any design you want? Or do you just mean the general shape? Or my paint job? 😁 If it is my paint job, I never bother to do a "nice" paint job for my RC, as I hate "reverse" painting and masking of clear shells, and as a fellow member once said to me, I will end up on its roof anyway. I put more effort into my static models.

Personally, I never really like buggies, but if I have to pick, I prefer Tamiya's buggy designs. Then why I bought this? Well, price, it was a bargain, and  the "something different for a change" I mentioned above. I was really close to buying a Neo Fighter and saw this one popped up for the same money. It was a case of "something cheap, anything will do" to cure a case of itchy hands. 😂

Shape of the body.    Cockpit is too long and looks like you can fit 4 people in tandem like a bobsled 🤣

Hmmm... Maybe it is supposed to be a family buggy.

I am intending to put in a driver figure but you gave me an idea. Maybe I can put in a co-pilot, co-driver I mean! 

 

Top Gun style!

I know this is several months old; how is the driving?  Also, I think we need some dawn/dusk shots with those lights on. looks cool!    Did you put a co-pilot in?

Before getting into the build, one thing that I want to point out is they're 

Just like Tamiya and wolfdogstinkus's,full size screw drawings. I have to say, the drawings matches the real thing better than Tamiya's. But not as well as wolfdogstinkus's "best ever build manual" lol fixed that for you.

Don't know why there is a picture of scones. Lol
