1:8 Scale RC Pinzgauer Rock Crawlers

Post by hackcampbell »

A buddy of mine is into RC planes/vehicles, and found this guy's hand built RC Pinzgauers on some forum:

Below is a video of someone else making a different vehicle, but you can see how long it takes to make all of the little details:

Here's a picture of some of the details in work:

Here's a finished shot:

I'd say 10 out of 10 on body detail!

Holy ...!

I used to race off-road RC cars when I was a kid (against all adults) but never saw anything quite that unique.

Only issue I see is that the tow pin on the front bumper looks a bit too large.

Doesn't look like portal axles to me, and (just as egregiously) it seems to be missing it's center axle entirely!!. :| WTF?

Nice work, nonetheless. :)
