Tamiya blackfoot

Post by tomhugill »

I've not had a lot of motivation for the tanks recently but I have been bitten by the RC car bug. Something I've not really done since I was a kid (and never hobby grade).

My missus got me a tamiya blackfoot kit for my birthday which wound up getting upgraded. I've added bearings, alloy wheelie bar, Kimbrough servo saver, hobbywing max10 4000kv brushless combo and a 3dp gearbox brace to stop the infamous orv clicking.

It's been sitting for a while waiting for nice weather to paint it. This week I finally got that chance. I went for a box art scheme because I'm a bit boring!

The paint jobs not perfect but as I'll be bashing it I figure I'll feel less bad when it inevitably gets scratched and dinged ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

I had a Tamiya Hornet in the 80's. Used to drool over things like this in the Tamiya catalog. Cool truck.
