RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Decided to "mini monster" my MT2 a bit. Put on some Masher 2k tires, 13tooth clutch bell and painted up a new HPI DSX-2 body for her. She seems to do well with the new setup.

RE: helppp!!!

Did you check to make sure the plug is good and glowing brightly? Offhand, I would guess that maybe the culprit.

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Sam, my only thought aside from your screw idea would be to find a longer shaft/hingpin that will give you more room to move the shock out.

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

RE: Show off your ST thread.

My fairly new MT2 3.0. I had wanted one for years, but always went with something different (RcC10gt, OFNA buggy etc). A few little upgrades like alloy steering knuckles and aluminum rear shocks..

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

The RS4 clutch shoes was sort of a stopgap, although it seems to be working well atm. Shortly I intend to go with Mashers, 13t clutch bell and will then probably go with a Savage flywheel and clutch...

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

I too recently got a MT2 3.0 and in short order broke the clutch spring. Not willing to keep buying entire clutches to get a spring, I went with the RS4 two shoe /2 spring set up and it drops right...

RE: Indiana Jones on the battlefield!!

The Indy movie would pre-date the DAK if you are going for an Indy movie truck. If you are going for a general German truck (not movie specific), it would look very cool dressed up in DAK markings.

RE: HL owners - which one is your favorite?

Having always been a fan of the little Panzer's, I prefer the III myself. My Tiger works good, but I like the running and looks of my Panzer III much more. I put a bit more time and effort into as...

RE: Ageing Your Pics

Cool site. I was trying to accomplish the same thing on Photoshop, but only achieved grainy b&w. This is sure simpler to use :)

RE: For All You Weathering Experts......

Although I don't always used washes, I would certainly go with a dark wash to do as you suggested, gather in nooks and crannies. As an alternative, I often "paint" nooks and crannies with a dark...

RE: Airbrushing Help!

As far as masking goes, look at pictures of the real subject and determine if the camo used was hard edged(as in a very defined line as from masking) or soft edged as though done free hand and having...

RE: HL paint question

At a minimum, I would wash/wipe down the tank prior to painting to enjoy there are no oils from the smoke unit, assembly or even finger prints. I wipe mine down with a Windex type glass cleaner...
