[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks! AMT label this one as 20th scale.

[@ChrisKnowlesTube]

Scale Builder's Guild thanks, That makes sense. Keep up the great work.

[@Spoo76]

1/20 is the best size for most 1/24 trucks if you consider the HobbyPlus to be short wheelbase and the scx24 medium wheelbase. The road rippers JK fits the HobbyPlus perfectly, but there's a lot more options once you start adjusting your wheel base

[@ChrisKnowlesTube]

Spoo76 how did you adjust your wheelbase on the Hobby Plus, did you make new rods?

[@Spoo76]

@@ChrisKnowlesTube you could technically cut and sleeve the stock rods and drive shafts, but it looks much nicer making custom links.

Oy Matt, shinchu from the forums here. I used that testors rattle can for my 79 ford tribute build. I sprayed the root beer pretty liberally (says one coat formula iirc) and it layed down pretty nice. BE CAREFUL with clear coat though. Mine got a little cloudy in some spots. Just go light from far away and should be okay. Maybe some testing on primered styrene to see what it does. Builds are looking great as usual sir!

[@Spoo76]

Depending on your wheel base a HobbyPlus CR-18 is a great start. The axles are widened CR-24 axles, the chassis is similar but obviously longer with a few other improvements over the CR-24. Compared to a RC4WD 1/18 it's half the price with a more useable wheelbase for 1/18 bodies. If you're using a short WB or medium WB an SCX24 works well
