Build pics ??

Today I ordered more Clod stuff

Couldn't decide between CPE terminator or predator so bought the SWB Predator kit and a CF Terminator chassis centre - best of both worlds ?!?

Converted my Dark Impact from silver can power, and 27 meg, to 15 turn and 2.4 radio.

Before.

Ordered more Clod parts - looks like I'm building two now, rather than modding one :rolleyes:

says he who appears to have half the world's supply of Fox parts, and a more than healthy appetite for Avante bodysets and Egress kits ;)

My original plan was to make one mod clod and sell the unused parts off, then it became make a regular Clod runner with minor new parts use and a nice race Clod with mostly new parts. It's heading towards two mod Clods and almost enough for a stock Clod too :(

My Egress funds are disappearing rapidly :lol:

I hold Mat single handedly responsible for why JR-RC is out of stock and I cant get my fox running again or my boomerang finished :lol: :lol:

Looking great! How you liking it so far? :D If you have an esc, plug it into the drive motor (or use the dmd unit if you wish) and run it for a bit as is and then recheck track tension. Mine loosened up a little after a quick run with the upper hull off so I had the opportunity to reset it before all the business end went on :)

Bad news = Packed up my RC kit from my dinning table in time for Christmas :(

Good news = Checked delivery tracking and one of my RC Christmas presents should be arriving tomorrow :)

This evening I've stripped an original Clod Buster - build thread to be started soon ;)

I must dig my Clod bits out of storage, and finish my hand built chassis I started 10 years ago :blink::lol::lol::lol:

Completed my Original Clod Buster Restore/New Build.

Has the vintage original electronics including the mechanical speed controller, power/economy switch and receiver battery pack !

Now, just need to source out a professional paint job for the Chevrolet badged Clod Buster body B) .

The only modern touch is the 2.4 ghz radio/receiver.
