Wrench To Drive RC Car Resource

No, there isn't a new Kyosho product out there that you missed.  The Kyosho Fazer: Rally Edition is something I made up.  Two things prompted this mod, the rock damage to the body from driving my Kyosho Fazer Dodge Charger in gravel and the bouncy nature of 60mm tire touring cars in rocky conditions.  Both of those things made me want to put the Kyosho Charger on the shelf for it's own safety, but I hate Shelf Queens, I drive my cars.  That got me thinking about mods.  Bigger tires and a beater body shell are the obvious mods.  I ended up doing a little bit more. It turns out that my favorite cheap body shell, the SummitLink Baja Beetle, fits pretty well on a 275mm wheelbase touring car.  For those of you with a short wheelbase touring car, fear not, it'll fit even better because the Fazer is a bit long for the body shell.  You can be the judge, but I think the pictures prove my point.  I do have to mention a couple of things, though.  I think the Baja body looks a lot

Hi guys, One quick note guys, and it pains me to say this, the WLToys 12428 has gotten REALLY expensive lately.  If you want my advice, this is NOT the time to buy one.  It is simply not worth $150 US.  If you want to build a crawler, do an SCX10 clone instead.  If you already have a WLToys 12428, of course it's still a good option to mod it into something else if you've gotten bored. This is a simple roll cage for the  WLToys Honcho conversion  (or pretty much any scale crawler including SCX10 clone trucks).  I set it up as cab mount or chassis mount, so take your pick.  PLA seems pretty durable but if you want a really tough part, try Solutech flexible filament (I think it's TPU). Of Note: There are two lengths on this cage, so pay attention to the parts you're printing.  Double check your measurements if you're printing this for something other than an SCX10 clone or RedCat Gen 8 because those are the two that I have actually measured. I designed this
