When I had a career I was talking all day, negotiating etc. Years of isolation meant I found it difficult to put a sentence together. I had to really take the plunge to do it and I have spent days trying to figure out what to even say. A long story but kept recording, practising, rerecording etc.etc.etc. Months later I am getting better at talking but been tough to do. Helps me in the real world but I don't have the luxury of reflection and rerecording out there lol

Hey fella! Just found your channel, first time viewer. Beautiful job you done there, love the green addition to the body shell, works really well! (is that top force green?) And, great job on the driver detailing, I left the driver out of mine due to a lack of space..... I fitted the ESC on the top deck next to the receiver, this combined with a deans to tamiya adapter lead left very little space! Your neat wiring puts mine to shame in all honesty! Nice to see you running a proper vintage motor, like you, I prefer brushed in my vintage cars. I went with the tamiya super stock rz, works well for what I'm after. This buggy is a joy to build, and runs really well for a design that's nearly 40 years old eh?! Kyosho are doing a great job of their legendary series. Got up a couple of videos of my one up on our channel @ Green Hawks RC if you are interested at all. Anyway, great video fella.... You just got another sub! 😊 👍 👍 👍

Powered it up but not ran it yet...soon I hope. Got one other thing to do to it first and then if the weather is good it's running.

What can I say that hasn't already been said here? That was a masterclass in detailing an RC buggy and video production! Really enjoyable and informative. You are going from strength to strength, Damian. I know exactly what you meant at the end, feeling the pressure of wanting to do a good job because the car was a gift from the RC Elf. I just went through the same experience with the Gray Edition Clodbuster from the Elf, too. But you more than did it justice, mate! Sorry I'm late but I didn't get a notification, usual KZread problems... also some of my comments are being removed (again, arrrgghh!) so I hope this one sticks. All the best and keep up the great work, dude!

No worries Mark, I don't see everything straight away, depends what I have been watching as that influences recommended. Your Clod came out great but you are great at painting imo. Seen some of your lexan shells and been amazed! One think I did do for this was allow lot of time.for paint to go off properly before I dare use masking on it. Learnt that before the hard way 😂

I always like how your approach to colour changes is the 'same same but different' approach - never too over the top, just enhancing what was already great. Shelf queen or fun runner?

Hi and appreciate the feedback 😀 I do plan to run it. There is an underrated from Revive available. I have one for mine but it won't protect the underneath where the motor is.
