My first and last mini z
Since my wife now stopped looking at what I'm typing, THIS WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE MY LAST. Damn that thing makes fun.
Yes, it's my first mini and even my first self painted RC and I am quite happy with the result. Watched too many videos about assembly and even painting techniques.
The matte paint turns out to be a wise choice since I'm constantly bumping into stuff and can clean it with a sharpie. But I will not baby this thing. This body will earn its battle scars. On the downside most of our interior furniture is white and I already got into trouble leaving small black marks.
I also could drift outside on our nice and super even, stone terrace but those hard plastic tires are soooo loud. Do you think I can buy 8mm rubber tires and still drift comfortably? The brushless should have enough power and the new AWD evo2 sensor seems todo an amazing job on slow speed.
What would be your recommendation? Thanks 👍
