Default Donziikid's Tamiya Mitsubishi Pajero:

Quite the long title, eh? Lol.


Howdy,

I just recently (alright, about a month and a half ago..) bought a Tamiya Mitsubishi Pajero Metaltop Wide kit off of eBay from RPPHobby. For those that do not know, the Mitsu. Pajero from Tamiya is a four wheel drive RC with an independent front suspension and a solid rear axle. Stock they have about an inch of ground clearance in the front. From my limited up north testing, it's proven to be a fun off-road scaler and that limited g.c. is good enough, but it certainly could use some help when it comes to the wheel department. Stock tires make better rocks than rubber!

My plans for my Mitsu would be of course paint, followed by a few scale upgrades and lights. I would like to make the brake lights clear rather than the solid plastic they are now. Possibly even a few chassis upgrades like relocating the steering servo to over the front suspension. We'll see what happens.

As you can see, the body isn't painted. Any suggestions are certainly welcome!










Cheers,
Kyle.
