Not trying to be difficult but I have one that looks orange too. What would've made a red one orange on both sides evenly? Its not sun fade because both sides look the same...maybe some kind of cleaner? Scr8p...any ideas?

Peace and professionlism.....Kabunga signing off!!!
a lot of us like the white parts, but gotta like the black with the bright colors too. I was thinking you should do body with a vintage muscle car look with orange and flat black accents.

could be a different powder supplier, not enough coverage, different color base coat, who really knows. it could be something as simple as not cleaning out the gun out right and the colors mixed together.
all i was trying to say is that they didn't make "orange" powdered parts. whether they look kinda orange or not, they still came out of a package that said "flourescent red".
OMG! Did you just post a picture of a GAY T M on this sacred forum?

I think the black and orange looks good! And the Flourescent and white has been done a few times, plus if you look at those rear arms they are dyed, Kent Clausen even knew back in the day it was cooler to dye the stock parts
I outsource my paint work because there is no way I could come close to doing a good job.
long story short this has been months in the process. Mostly sitting on the backburner I'm sure. But I got a photo of the first body of the two he is doing for...
Let me get right to it. I started fabing sheet metal panels for this build. I would really like the car to turn out looking more like a dune buggy rather than a sprint car. What do you guys think? Should I continue with the panels or lose them? If I...
Hi everyone - I have usually had Futaba radios through the years and was going to start upgrading my radios from the old 75 AM various magnums I have to the new 2.4 Futaba 3PV. It looks solid, but then I saw reviews on the Flysky fs-gt3c and the...

I have the predecessor, FlySky GT3B, and it's great for bashing around .......something you don't find in a lot of other lower-end radios. Being able to limit your servo travel is an essential feature for me.

I also have a line on an original Hot Shot, so stoked!
Will I am not getting any younger, and the wife and I want to try and do some more camping and visiting the kids. So I am thinking it may be time to close or pass on/sale my R/C venture, any thoughts?
Yes I mean Factory Works and A&L. Daryl

I can appreciate where you are coming from Daryl. Life does go on and you no doubt want to spend more of your later years enjoying the spoils that your company has afforded you. That's only natural.

every one has a valid point here. lets put it like this... every race car needs to be tweaked and gone through every race or every other race. a few arms and hubs here and there to keep the car tight wont hurt. I DONT think you will be displeased at...
