  • The Cross RC XX10 T-Rex is finally finished! (well 90%!) but that's close enough. Gotta be the World's Biggest RC Car (12th Scale). It's cost me roughly $5000 to build, so it's certainly the most expensive RC I have ever owned!

      Nope I am looking forward to it. Nice problems to have. I was actually looking to build something to take all the other RC's to the park. Almost got a TRX6 AMG to transform into a James Bond vehicle. This is the Ultimate train wagon/engine to bring all those plus a couple adults

      When you have to record a build and plan a video etc.. it’s way more work than just building. I can imagine doing the build with no pressure to complete would actually be a bit more satisfying

      I'm all for the model building portion, even if it takes weeks.
      But an internal driveline failure with gentle, mostly flat surface driving? That is truly unacceptable for the price.
      This video literally put me off from this purchase, clearly precision Chinesium engineering at work lol
      It's bit surprising, as other Cross RC models are pretty top notch.

    Awesome project mate, can't wait to see it really finished!
    Its so refreshing to see someone like yourself, the expert, tackling a decent project. The "here's the latest RC" video's are enormously useful to buyers, but most of us are only buyers once or twice a year, if we're lucky. The rest of the time we're either building what we bought, or modifying what we bought. To see you hitting problems with a project and seeing how you tackle those problems, it's not only enormously useful, but it's reassuring to see even the experts hit problems.

    Super glue/crazy glue is your friend when it comes to bonding painted parts. You can also scrap off the paint from the points of bonding with an xacto knife, then glue. Regular model glue, as you now know, won't cut it.

      @TomleyRC  Před 18 dny +2

      The problem is, it’s fixed on the chassis. So to make it move you have to remove the main support bars. So although it’ll lift up and down, it’ll not have anything to support it other than the winch lines

    I'm an experienced model builder and can share the way I paint stuff.
    I generally pre-paint body panels, then scrape the paint off only where glue is to be applied at contact points. It's critical for proper adhesion of parts. Some things, such as that visor that scootched down on you, I'd use cyanacrylate cement (super glue) for instant adhesion. That rig looks great on camera, good job.

    I got a tip for the body fixation you worry about the fact that they are just glued on.
    Now they are glued, you can weld them.
    If you got the plastic mold where the part was fixed, then take some of the "plastic tube" and use it as a solder. Use a soldering iron and smelt the plastic of the body and the body fixation and add some platic to it (not to hard to not go through).
    I used to do this for fixing the part that need to be glued in a hole. if the hole is through, the I smelt the two part to weld them. It's way more efficient than glue but it can be a problem since it cannot be detach, if the part got to more hit, it broke instead of just getting loose.

    It's a beast. It moans. It's a wonderful build. The grill? Thingy on the front was called in north America a "cow catcher". Your monster is too cool. 🎊🥳🤣🎉

    For models I try to glue as much as possible and paint it masked off. Some times you have to scratch the paint off to glue fiddly bits.

    cut a hole in a cardboard box and stick a hair dryer in it. Put the box over the parts and turn on the hair dryer. Parts dry in minutes.
