Hello
I am new on this forum and this is my second post here, next to the one where I introduce myself.
After just recently having purchased a Tekno MT410, I have bought a body from the list at amainhobbies.com.
This is the Pro-line Apocalypse body.
I have bought this, because there are only a limited amount of kinds of bodies.
A pickup truck. (I am not a fan of this, so that's like 90 percent of the bodies which I wouldn't want.)
The beetle baja.
The Losi xxl-2(e)
The hpi grave robber.
The hpi Chevrolet El Camino
And the one I got, namely the Pro-line Apocalypse body.
Now on the Apocalypse body, it says, it fits, but you need extended body mounts.
After searching for a while, i read somewhere that I needed the pro-line body mounts for the Slash 4x4, because those fit snug.
They don't...
I had to cut some of the mount to make it fit in the hole. And now it fits snug..
But even after this, it seems that the body mounts are too wide apart to be able to support the body.
And when you position the body on the vehicle, it seems that the body mounts are too far in the front (the back ones, i haven't even started on the front).
Is there anyone here that has experience with the mounting of this body?
I think the look is really cool, but it has to be able to fit.
Otherwise I will have to give it to a mate who has the Traxxas Summit (this is the car for which the body actually was made).
And that would be a shame. :/
I took some pics with flash and it was a weird effect...:
It's the orange fluorescent colour of Tamiya with two "racing" stripes in normal yellow.
