I am done with build the super clodbuster. It’s fun. Now you build it! You are having a fun. Tamiya is champion!

[@beechmountainrc1668]

Tamiya all the way! Great stuff, can't wait to see what ya do with it.

[@ricksscalerc2222]

Super cool! Look forward to seeing more on it.👍👍

[@pocher69]

I have built this lt and it was a lot of fun, Love Tamiya kits as I have another one that's coming prob next week a Black RSR Porsche

[@csj9619]

I have an M02L Tamiya 1/10 Beetle that's somewhat similar and shares some parts with yours. I like the bathtub chassis yours has better and REALLY dig the fuchs.

[@vwagon5566]

Dang, I've got this in my closet. Gunna build it pretty soon.. ..that's what I said last week 🤣

[@steves06tc]

I have those same needle nose pliers and their perfect being narrow and skinny and some what sharp

[@t1mmy13]

A 3d printer would be a great addition, you could print a longer mind piece to make the truck body work

[@charlesswank6401]

Paint the lexan! You can do eeeet! :-D Why not rough up the outside and paint it on the outside? That way you can fill in those pesky post holes. I've done it before and roughed up properly it's not much unlike doing a hard shell. Make sure you primer it good. Liking the wheels. Looks like the real deal. Slammed VW's look sweet on some Porche alloys!

[@jackjohnsonsk8240]

Nice vid

[@garrybaugher8617]

Cant you use some aluminum channel to lenghten it to fit the truck body. That would look badass as lowered drifter

[@altusvaneeden6804]

Dropbear rc.. Thanks 👍

[@Axial_Andrew]

For about 4 minutes I thought you were putting this kit together with sun tan lotion!! Then it dawned on me. Excellent wheel choice also.

[@bretunderhill]

Gotta use the vw body

[@robertrosson1990]

Seems like it will be tail happy lol nice kit tho there's lot you can do to it

[@winnepoo9788]

The front camber issue may be because you didn’t cut the end of the ball joint down. It’s very easy to miss in the directions. Don’t ask me how I know.

[@RCeveryday]

Lol. That could have done it. Don’t remember seeing that step at all.

[@heribertomorales9361]

RC Everyday hi can you tell me were you got the rims? T you.

[@swoof13]

@@heribertomorales9361 the rims are discontinued HPI rims. No longer available.

[@DIYglenn]

I experienced this myself. Just a tiny text line with “cut 2mm”.

[@benvito7032]

Hi, just wondering at the beginning of the video. Did you lock up the differentials? Thanks

[@RCeveryday]

I dont think I did. its been a while since I built this.

[@JoseGarcia-yk3dl]

Hello, is best option this m06 or m05? Thanks!

[@ladislasgorzala567]

Bonjour quel est le modèle de vos jantes et où les acheter ?

[@chrisscott3039]

👍

[@YaREC_RC]

Can you tell me what wheels these are? I like them very much.. :)

[@RCeveryday]

Super rare and discontinued Hpi cup racer Porsche wheels

[@YaREC_RC]

@@RCeveryday thanks a lot !

[@WasNiksIsNiksWordtNiks]

Have to ask, where did you get the fuchs wheels?

[@RCeveryday]

They are discontinued HPI cup racer wheels

[@RC-dj6in]

Nice car~!! How long did it take to complete?

[@RCeveryday]

The chassis was maybe a couple hours. It was not as easy as other tamiya kits I have build before.

[@RC-dj6in]

@@RCeveryday I see. Thank you so much~

[@pommylife1040]

Those wheels man where did you get them

[@RCeveryday]

They have been discontinued for a while, made by HPI

[@robertblack7352]

How many phillips head screws did you strip making that model?

[@RCeveryday]

Maybe 2

[@robertblack7352]

@@RCeveryday I had the misfortune of assembling the short version when I should have been building the long. I'd finished the step, turn the page and see instructions for medium and long! Then trying to remove the screws from the bottom plate I completely stripped and had to drill out one screw. But with a little PVC glue I got the right piece on. I just think the kit would be much more enjoyable with hex head screws.

[@RCeveryday]

@@robertblack7352 oh man, that sucks. I totally agree tamiya needs to get with the times and have hex head scews with all their kits.

[@stewarthaddon3219]

T you for Let me know

[@unclemoom1]

How did you lower the chassis ?

[@RCeveryday]

Shortened the shocks, also installed adjustable upper links to add camber

[@unclemoom1]

@@RCeveryday thanks for the reply. I’d like to see a video on that.

[@saulphoto1073]

Hi , I lost the manual to asembler, can you sell me any copy of the yours?

[@RCeveryday]

Everything is on the internet my friend. www.tamiya.com/english/rc/manuals.htm

Thanks ,which one is for the beetle you painted yellow

[@RCeveryday]

[@saulphoto1073]

[@altusvaneeden6804]

Were can I buy one??

[@RCeveryday]

You can find them on most any online hobby shop as well as ebay and amazon.

[@altusvaneeden6804]

I'm from south Africa so don't know

[@dropbearrc9819]

altus Van Eeden have a look at rcmart.com

[@TRUCKERS7]

RC Everyday does it come with everything you need

[@RCeveryday]

It still needs a radio and esc. And servo

[@lynnwright9955]

paint the bug body.

[@cripticcustomrc7043]

First 😀😀😀

[@cripticcustomrc7043]

Model t body 😬 AWSOME build 👊✌️💯

[@woodchoppershollowcustompa993]

Criptic Custom RC try a lunch box or Midnight Pumpkin

[@RCeveryday]

I’ve looked into the lunchbox body. It can be done but is still a little too narrow for my liking. I know the pumpkin body can work though.

[@craigm8950]

Can't you spray the outside of the beetle body with PS paint (even clear) made for lexan, then paint over top that first of PS coat with TS paint(s) and finish just like all of your hardbody creations?

[@cripticcustomrc7043]

RC Everyday pumpkin body would be bad azz with a rat rod look to it wheels on the car would go perfect
