In this episode of RC Modify, the team tackles a 1970 Dodge Charger, opting for a V8 engine with a plenum intake for that modern touch. Upgrades abound, from wheels and drift tires to an ESC, 55T motor, transmitter, and receiver. The sleek black body with a gunmetal front grille sets the stage for what promises to be a mean machine. Improvements to the M-Drift 2 chassis make maintenance a breeze, with a clever new design for easier access to crucial screws. Not to mention the nifty 10-millimeter dowel pin hack for those tricky knuckle bearings.
The intricate process of assembling the V8 engine unfolds, involving a switch from a regular servo reverser to an inline one for a cleaner setup. With meticulous attention to detail, the application of masking stickers using Rapid Tac, as endorsed by DarkDragonWing, ensures a flawless finish. Painting the trims with PS5 and a clear coat adds that extra touch of finesse. Adjustments for the white LED strip for turn signals and the synchronized clicks of ground and positive switches showcase the team's dedication to perfection.
As the build progresses, considerations for the Charger logo placement and the use of additional double-sided tape for secure battery installation demonstrate a commitment to excellence. With the completion of the model after a month, the impressive features like engine and sound activation culminate in a sale with an enticing offer. The team's passion and expertise shine through, delivering a stunning RC creation that captivates enthusiasts and showcases their craftsmanship.
