RC Bashers

I picked up this Aeromax to restore. I've already stripped it. I was going to paint it blue and put Bigfoot stickers on it as a Bigfoot hauler, but have seen some blue ones online and don't like the look.

looks neat. Cant wait for the resto build up

nope. but io always thought they were cool. they are very expensive though.

how fast do they go?

1st gear is realistic. 2nd and 3rd are too fast as far as scale speeds go. I'm thinking about switching to a 55 turn motor. That should make it more scale like.

cool. they do sound fun. does it take a long time to build them?

I bought this from a guy who was going to restore it but lost interest. He had started to strip the paint but didn't finish it. It's no harder than building any of the 3 speed high-lift pickups.

Those big rigs are cool. Seen some builds on the Scale4X4 forums(?) if I remember right.

This is how it looked when I got it.

I love styrene. Why won't anyone but Tamiya mess with it?

I always liked these type builds. And don't forget about SemiJoe the master BIG Rig builder. Guy is amazing with these rigs and styrene work. He has a killer thread on RCDrivers forums. I was thinking someday doing one up like a MotoGP team hauler for my models. Good luck with and have fun with the build.Thanks for sharing the thread with us all.

I removed the outer brackets so you can see how it looks...most of the time its just the info after the =

Thanks Jay! One of these days I'll get it right. I blame it on the chemical preservatives in the food I eat.

Hell yea I liked that one. Sweet build there. Thanks for the sharing thingy again.lol

I always wanted to build a jet truck out of one of these.

I finally decided on a color.

hugger orangish or Red?

that rig is SWEET!! a lot of money tied up in the rig and the clod. thanks for sharing.

It's orange like the tuber.

I got the majority of the painting finished. There are half a dozen fairing pieces left to do. I'm going to let this sit for a few days or so to let it harden. In the meantime I'll look over the Tamiya light kit that was on it to see how much fun that's going to be to reinstall.

looks good bub

I haven’t updated this for awhile. It’s almost done. Just has a few things left. It needs a few replacement parts and some fairing pieces painted and installed. This project has pretty much reached the end of the line for me though. It’s about to hit the auction block. I’m into Monster Trucks, so Mod Clods are my addiction and where my main focus is at. I have project ideas going through my head right now that I really want to build.
