lmwong RC10 B4.2, retro protech body

Post by lmwong »

Heavily inspired by Ultrahive's B4 and Siebenelch's slammed RC10s. I like how this turned out. I'll update with more pics once I finalize electrical layout. I'm planning center mounted, shorty lipo setup. I found it on eBay, it's an RTR with hopped-up components.

Protect body painted Tamiya Metallic Blue Masami style, decals from eBay and whatever I had laying around. I have pink DE racing wheels on the way but I like the look of the black mock up wheels.

Center mounted electronics. Big bore shocks. Carbon shock towers. Trifecta wing.

This really came out great. Love the Protech look on the B4. It stand out nicely and this chassis, having taken 5 world titles, does the old look a lot of justice.

Regarding the center mounted electronics: where did you get the hardware to mount the ESC in the middle of the chassis? I see that aluminum yribi (red) spacer and aluminum brace (blue). I also see the carbon ESC shelf; did make that yourself? It came out very nice. I see the receiver is below the ESC under the tray. With this setup, how do you prevent the battery from moving aft?
