I have seen others use a marker. Have you tried using markers? I tried using a fine point sharpie, but it doe not work on all surfaces. Thank you very much. You have skills! Mines thus far looks nothing like yours!
@@richardguichardo9521 Thank's again. Take your time applying the tape, try not to pull and stretch it or it will peel back. I've never used a marker pen because others have tried it and the results are not very good. Take your time and you'll get good results.
Hey man, this video alone made my buy one right now lol. Problem is I just learned what a Electronic Speed Controller is and I have no idea what is the best one for this kit. What did you use? Thanks in advance :)
Hi Hans. They some came from the bottom of the supplied decal sheets. Others I got from MCI Racing in Canada. mciracing.ca/collections/other/products/1-10th-helmet-decals
Thanks. It is very tight as the body is low slung. And considering I don't have any electronics fitted, I may have to cut more should I decide to fit them.
Nice build!!!
Thanks. Quite a few tricky stickers.
@@toppertopp Oh yeah it takes me more time with the decals than the actual assembly itself.
cant wait for mine
ordered last week
will go great in my mercedes collection
It's a great looking shell, got a few Mercs myself. Have fun with the build.
@@toppertopp wish i didnt have so much trouble getting the paint
@@duhrailed Yeah, paint seems to be thin on the ground here, supplies are short.
Nicke work!👍
Thank You.
Beautiful. I just ordered 2 of these yesterday. You did an awesome job.
Good stuff. Wouldn't mind an additional body set myself. Have fun with yours.
sleeper bodyset, snatched one, and a one way diff, How did you get your wheels to look brighter than stock, paint them? , looks great
Yes, I painted them in Tamiya TS-17 👍 looks loads better than standard wheel plastic.
Beautiful Body Shell 😎👍🏻
It sure is. Cockpit set was tight but it's in lol
Very nice! Can you tell what did you use for the details lines. Thank you
Thank You. I used Kyosho 1859 0.4mm Micron tape.
Thank you very much. You have skills! Mines thus far looks nothing like yours!

Thank you for the tip, and I do pull on the decal/stretch it out; that explains why the decals begin to peal off after a few days.
Beautiful does it come with the interior? If not where did you get it thx
It doesn't come with the interior. Usually they are plentiful on ebay but they're seems to be a supply issue lately. Part number 54298,
Hi beautiful car!!! I have one on order and wanted to go ahead and order some paint. Was PS12 the color recommended in the build manual? thanks!
Hi, yes it is PS12 for the paint.
Hey man, this video alone made my buy one right now lol. Problem is I just learned what a Electronic Speed Controller is and I have no idea what is the best one for this kit. What did you use? Thanks in advance :)
I use a hobbywing 1060. It's for brushed motors and ideal for motors down to 12 turn. The hobbywing is the goto ESC for brushed motors 👍
@@toppertopp you’re saving me time and money brother 👌
Where did you get the interior and who makes it? Thanks.
Bought it from ebay. Tamiya 54298. Painted it myself 👍
@@toppertopp Nice. Thanks for the info.
Hey Chris, were do you get those tiny little stickers from you use on the helmets?
Thanks, Hans

What is the cockpit référence please
Tamiya 54298 LHD 👍
Hi looks stunning just about to do the body on mine did you have any problems with the cockpit does it need a bit of fettling to fit nice
Thanks. It is very tight as the body is low slung. And considering I don't have any electronics fitted, I may have to cut more should I decide to fit them.
Beautiful !
PS12 or 41 ?
4 coats of PS-12.
Good Afternoon Sir,
Sorry to bother you again. You mentioned using glue to help with the decals. Can you the name of glue? Thank you
I used CORE RC tyre glue or Pro-Line. It doesn't make any difference on brand, just any CY/Tyre glue.
@@toppertopp Thank you very Sir.
Hey mate, excellent job just ordered the same body! Did you spray the lower spoiler with the same ps-12 paint?
Thanks. I used TS-17 acrylic silver. You could use the ps paint but it won't be glossy unless you go ever it with lacquer.
@@toppertopp thanks so much mate, so if I use TS-13 clear lacquer spray paint over the PS-12 that would have the nice finish I’m looking for?
@@ethantalbot1102 Yeah sure, I've used that method before and it works fine 👍
@@toppertopp legend! One last thing what black was used for the front lip?
@@ethantalbot1102 PS-5 black 👍
How did you paint the black section on the front ?
Mask out everything else then spray from the inside. Then peel off the masking and spray the remainder silver 👍
