Hi my name is Kristian Field I live in Charleston South Carolina and I am 13 years old . I have gone through deep depression and When ever I feel down or just need a cheer up I always turn to your videos and you and you have inspired me to work on Traxxas rc cars and now I have an amazing growing passion for it but I want to get an upgrade from a 2w Traxxas slash to an 4w but I don’t have to the money. But what I want more than anything in the world is to have a x Maxx. But the money I save is to help me grandpa and his health. But I just wanted to thank you for your energy and enthusiastic personality that just cheers me up all the time. Thank you and god bless!

[@lowcountrylivin5744]

Thanks Kevin

[@lowcountrylivin5744]

What is your favorite all time RC car/ truck

[@NickVanse]

How you doing nowadays bro?

[@netcruzer]

I've had the no fender version of Proline Baja bug body for a few years now. It's AWESOME in the winter because all the snow can roost out easier. The rounded shell makes rollovers land on it's wheels more, and the jumping is better with less parachuting. I made a video painting mine in 2016, and bashed the heck out of it since. Still looks OK after some major body crushing wrecks.

[@Jeroen-Engelgeer]

Wing in the back is better indeed. Overall looking good.

[@rcfrenzy]

That looks a lot cooler than I expected, might have to pick one up!

[@grantcepica2039]

I have a slash 4x4 it takes a beating and it still survives

[@andrewkelly3702]

Grant Cepica my slash 4x4 doesn’t want to die to

[@shalinprajith235]

@@andrewkelly3702 so you wanted it to die??!!

[@phil_life5335]

I have a 2wd, and same

[@drog343]

It's a great body, plenty durable, and it tends to help the car to land on its wheels more often, love mine.

[@steelcityadv3190]

I tumble wumbled into one of your videos a week or so ago and haven't stopped watching them since!

[@nicholasmapes]

I have a bug dody as well, and I put two jerry cans on the back bumper and it really ties the back bumper into the build

[@Kyle_v2]

Kevs face before he wips his hand: :| After: :)

[@gusbunch4079]

Dude I’ve watched this vid like 10 times it’s so awesome 😎

[@stpbasss3773]

I snapped a stock rear axel carrier today and I've been just waiting for it to happen since I know everyone else snaps them as well, I was gonna get some aluminum ones but I decided to order some RPM plastic ones since I haven't had one of their products break on me and I have the A-arms, shock towers and bumpers from them.

[@Armpit_Slapper]

I'm speechless... This looks AWESOME!

[@BrainOfRott]

Kev, you should paint the inside of the body shell silver, then paint the outside red. when you crash it makes the wipeouts som much cooler.

[@lukecotnoir3534]

I have one on my slash and it’s awesome. I might have to do another one in that red color bc it looks great. Keep making the awesome vids Kev!

[@robertpashley5352]

Do they go on a 1/5 scale king motor and we’re did u get it from

[@Valdemar-Perez-III]

I like how you do an upgrade video and instead of just showing it off, you do an assemble video and explain what to do in the process 👍👍👍👍👍😉👌

[@patmuccini3153]

Love your videos Kevin, keep up the good work!

[@Boss-dr2zk]

I like backing up some parts of the body with black and some with white

[@ocularcavity8412]

I LOVE the look of the Baja bug body

[@cade4868]

Can you do more videos with the traxxas rustler. PLEASE 😲

[@shawng7902]

im slowly falling in love with that Baja bug body. I've seen some wicked paint jobs on them, its round on top so it should roll back over easy, and it has to help parachuting compared to slash bodies

[@eliperry2366]

Just bought one for my slash and I love it

[@paulstingel7042]

That bug boddy looks mad I love it

[@ocularcavity8412]

I love that SONG!!! More please XD

[@CHEESEBURGERRC]

Well I know it this comment is 2 years old, but the song is called “Jubilation”

[@ZNICK-uj5dt]

I've been waiting for the paint job

[@jacobhenson3952]

I like it a lot better than I thought I would. I may have to pick one up myself.

[@xjdude947]

Looks good! Glad you noticed the backwards tires before the final shot 😂

[@redneckr.c8760]

I’m glad you changed the tires around hahah I’ve put so many tires on backwards

[@noahh.davidd]

I love that look! I really want you to keep it as a shelf body and paint another bug body, and use it as a beater, because that one looks so good!

[@katesanchez9842]

That body is one of the best i have seen

[@sarahhayes1212]

so cool! i love my traxis bandit! from alfie!

[@jamesgordon4433]

Further back will help balance the body between the bumpers. Love it, going to get a bug body for my slash 4x4. Enjoy

[@daveslife9486]

Looks cool and the spoiler further back is awesome 😍

[@bobble1476]

My fav body that u have used so far really nice red

[@mary-louderocher1711]

You did awesome job on the bug have fun running it

[@jasonbarnhill5006]

That turned out really good Kevin, I like it a lot. It's a good lookin bug..

[@williamarrowsmiith8380]

Absolutely badass looking RC!!!

[@reecewest5090]

I know you probably dont look at this but my ftx carnage shell it in two peices and its taped and hot glued together. Its got cracks on every body post and was left in my conservatory and deformed alot but still fits

[@moistavocado2350]

That body looks soooo good!! Can't wait to see it in action!

[@Kyle-jb3hr]

I've got a e Revo the shell is lined with high quality black ductape on the inside. It adds a ton of support but keeps it's flexibility

[@FatherandSonHavingFun]

Man I love the bug body. Keep the great videos comin.

[@scottbray5936]

I also have this body. Where you're mounting the wing is where it actually goes

[@satchmotionrc8202]

Love that body. I've had it on my hpi c1 flux since I got the truck. Such a beauty!

[@jeremyridgeway7414]

That Baja bug body looks so cool

[@lukegraham1628]

Absolutely loved the video with the how to and that sort of thing. Keep up the awesome work Kev!

[@mraudioiscool]

Very Cool ! Red is my favorite color too !

[@lovswr]

That looks great. Your hands are so freaken steady. I would have paint all over the place. LOL

[@dennis586]

I like that body and i think the fin on back looks better farther back like you put it!

[@jezedwards190]

Wicked job Kev! Had a passion for the baja shell ever since 1981 when I saw my first sand scorcher!!! 👌💟

[@NerfCraft]

I like that body! The way you did the wing, color, positioning and everything is perfect. You could also paint up another body like it and use one for bashing, while you use the other for camera and shelf sitting... just to look nice.

[@KevinTalbotTV]

Yes I think I will do another one :)

[@ryanp.8807]

Awesome body kev like the rear wing at the further back position

[@jamiefehr2180]

Best slash body so far

[@dazingoth783]

Looks good to me, should do 1 more, this time paint fenders black, with that red....would look great!!

[@micronrc3856]

Sweet great for the paddles, I just cut the fenders off one of my old Slash bodies. Looks good with no fenders. 👍👊😎🏁

[@joepopes7923]

A bug body is the best for off road trucks, nothing looks better in my opinion. It's also round on top, so the car lands more often back on the wheels.

[@indica8510]

Where you mount the rear wing you can add a piece of plastic that is shaped like a piece of angle iron. Make it 1.5 cm higher then the roof. When you roll it acts like a spring to protect the car.

[@nickteele169]

Looks great .be prepared for it to crack and break like never before. I can't wait for some bashing videos with it.hows the integy Drive shafts holding up on the rustler?

[@eddielane9569]

I love that Bug !! That is my color too. Wow !

[@paulcherry1520]

Was gonna get one for my erevo now traded for a xmaxx thanks to your vids man it's so big I love it well my son loves it more he drove it for 30 minutes and I got to drive it for 5 hahaha needs two tires and rims though bummed about that

[@NitroStarGT]

Great video. These upgrade vids, repairs, and bashing is why I subscribed and still watch and enjoy!!! Thanks

[@SnapSizz1e]

Like that you putt the paddle tires the wrong way an after you relise it was the wrong way 😂

[@rcripper5802]

Rockstar rzr rc

[@tanner9945]

Before he changed them to the stock tires he had 2 backwards

[@flippercomet5002]

That triggered me the whole time

[@sunnylegend2990]

That is one of the most epic body shells ever

[@talonvaughn6175]

Looks good Kev. I know I'm really late on all the videos. But I'm able to pay and play with some of these toys again.

[@drewbest2276]

That body shell looks good you should get another as a shelf queen

[@ttvgamer9335]

It's looks good at the bak of the truck

[@wissehubregtse3874]

I think you did a great job on the wing!

[@stpbasss3773]

Oh and the slash looks amazing

[@clegomanrun1294]

This is the best body you’ve ever done.

[@bigrygreen83]

I’m so dumb I didn’t know about this video until now haha. Thanks Kev!

[@Johnwick-ed7vo]

Kev kev kev u got a nice looking BASHER , bash it, shelf queens look wild but dont always translates into fun

[@taz8280]

Looked bloody fun that

[@hardstylezrc856]

All you do is 🤘👌👍

[@pinballwizardxd7060]

A suggestion to a way to make it cooler in my opinion is cut off the fenders it would look really aggressive and then add like a light bar

[@loranger6447]

You killed the ozone layer!😂

[@temper7269]

It looks great

[@joplaane4813]

Yep, looks awesome!

[@5353erock]

That buggy looks fantastic . Love the paddles too

[@philkennedy1105]

Looks fantastic always liked bugs

[@fernsolo]

Man good video as always, I got a baja bug slash ultimate my self and my slash is the truck that got me in to RC and specifically for the VW bug body, 👍🏻

[@Jack_5821]

The bug body looks sweet!

[@michaeleacret5336]

Thanks Kevin this gives me an idea for my slash

[@jonkoehl8065]

Thank you I've been thinking about that and it looks really good I like the Baja Bug

[@Bawla187]

Shell looks great. Those paddles tires give it an aggressive look.👍🏿

[@crispinshipp2624]

i have a slash 2wd and it gets banged around and it still works

[@Gavs_rc_hobbies]

Beetle looks mint mate.👌🏻👍🏻

[@carterzimmerman3594]

Wow that looks so good. With those paddle tires and that sick body your set. Love you kev cheers

[@jaxonreimer3669]

[@topherphuzz6293]

Before i even watch the vids because i love bug bodies

[@innovativerc7155]

That looks so cool Kev.

[@Silverfurry89]

Beautiful Kev!

[@temper7269]

Why don’t you put 2:8 stampede wheels to make it look like a monster truck

[@lololickerRL]

Good choice for the wing

[@dantowhite2261]

The body looks awesome

[@thecrawlerguy]

I love the look the other baja bug is not my style on the slash 4x4 but this looks perfect 👍😁

[@johnnieblaizz1]

[@eugenevdwalt2563]

I got 6 of those, love them to bits!!! That one came out awesome!!!

[@viableattic_gaming3512]

You are the best

[@vjydm9411]

kyle prudhomme I know I really want to do what he does because to have no job and play with RCs is just a dream for me!😀

[@philkennedy1105]

Is there owt that lasts you long lolol

[@cramalnig]

Cool! In my view, ya can't beat a bug shell :)

[@JimmyB55]

Lol. I did the same thing with the clear plastic. Luckily my stickers pealed off and stuck back fine. It's not really obvious.

[@waltermorris1605]

Looks cool as hell

[@rowan2128]

The body looks great 👍 kev.
