409 - A Song For Billy Ray: Something Went Wrong With Body Positioning

After the rescue of the unused Beetle body I've placed it on the Blitzer chassis but in a different position to try to give the car a more aggressive appeal.

Unfortunately this time something went wrong and it came out in a much higher, backwarded and disappointing position than expected. To save the day I will swich the front body post with a shorter one to lower the body and I will make some cuts to move it ahead.

408 - Carson, A Prompt Recovery After A Bad Performance!

From the early beginning, the radio set chosen for the Billy Ray project has been the Carson Reflex Start that seems to be a good option for the hands of a 11yo young gun.

Some days ago I've received the stuff ordered from Amazon but, after opening the box, I've discovered that the receiver have been missed. In two days thanks to Carson and Amanzon I've returned the the failed set and I've received a new one with its receveir so I'm ready to complete the car.

407 – A Song For Billy Ray: Motor and Esc Cabled, A Body Have Been Rescued

Well, the revamp of my Stadium Blitzer (Beetle) is confirming itself as the claimed chaotic build.

I’ve rescued the body previously used in my CR01 removing all the stickers and washing it in the wait of some custom sticker that should make it more appealing for a young gun.

I’ve also installed the LRP motor and soldered the Quicrun cables to it tabs and the ESC's switch have been sticked to the chassis wall in a easy to reach position.

The goofy antenna holder, made by a FF03 body spacer, have been moved in the middle of the chassis to match the body’s hole for the antenna pipe.
