Hi col, thanks mate. Yeah sometimes the simple ideas are the best ones.. lol tell me about it mate it’s very rare we go out and come home with all our clips.. happy rcing bud 👍
Hi Steve, cheers mate, yeah sometimes the simple ones are the best. You might know the next one I'm doing but I'm going to show people one of the simplest ways to reinforce a body shell.. Happy rcing bud 👍
Hi mark, that's a fantastic idea which will work great on my Senton 3/4s. I'll be sure to try it out as body clips can pe a right pain to get out sometimes, not good for if a fire breaks out as I found out with my Kraton last month.. bugger 🤣 perfect excuse to buy a max6 lol. But "so long" body clips, bane of my existence 🤣🤣 Thanks for the tip, much appreciated bro 🙂✌
hi mate, your more then welcome. fingers crossed this method will work for you.. lol yeah we always need to find that right excuse to buy a new model, being christmas nearly helps too hehe.. happy rc-ing bud, thanks for watching..
@@MarcRCAddict lol I'll be upgrading the rigs I have here to the max before I buy any more cars bro. Mission to make them bash proof 🤣 mission and a half lol. I've got two boat hulls here that I plan to make 2 river jet boats so me and my boy can mess about in the river with come summer. Haven't even started them yet 🤣 waiting on the arrival of a 3d printer so I can make the little bits and bobs i may need. Can't wait till they're completely, I'm using 500mm hulls and the jet that's brushless power is for 600 -1200mm hull 🤣 I think power and speed isn't going to be an issue brother, if anything it will be way overpowered but retarding power is easy but if the system isn't capable of the power then it can't be added. Well that's my logic hahaha. Happy Christmas fella and a fantastic new year 🙂✌ To the moon🚀🌙
Velcro - what a rip off... Seriously though, great idea and I've just brought home a load of sticky-back velcro I had at work so that'll be being put to good use fixing my son's RC car which has lost a body pin (yet again).
Hi mate, thank you.. yeah now and then i do, i not long ago got given a sg13 mini camera so ill be putting that on them from time to time and showing some fpv footage, if it stops raining, on tuesday i will take a few trucks out as want to do a high speed run and try and get one of my trucks to 60mph, when i do that ill pu a camera on top too.. :) happy rc-ing mate..
@@MarcRCAddict that be cool footage show recently I done gopro on rc boat is cool but my second time out lost gopro should have put floaty on my mistake expensive one at that
@@jimsdroneing ah mate that's gutting gopros are very expensive, do you know what that's the only thing I don't have in my collection yet a boat, but there's no where I could use it apart from the seaside but I think the sea would be too strong for them..
3:47 whoa, your doing it allll wrong. take that strip and place it on the velcro you put on the battery door. peel the backing off THEN put your body on the car and press down on the sides. takes ALL the guess work out and guarantees a perfect fit.
@@MarcRCAddict then you either got lucky or you are very good at eying the alignment. my comment is more useful for anyone reading it thinking of using velcro on their bodys.
Did you use true Velcro the industrial stuff? Ours lasted 6 months before we had to change it, I suppose it will differ from model to model and person to person 👍

In your basement 🤔😜
how do you power that fan connected to your motor? do you have a video on that?
Hello, no I don’t have a video on it sorry,, all I did was screw a mini esc fan to the esc heat sink then run the futaba power cable to the receiver..
I've never thought of using velcro on my trucks/cars ! I trust it on my drones ! crazy lol. Gone are the pins TY Ty lol 👍✈🚗
No problem mate, yup sometimes the simple mods are the best ones lol..
happy rc-ing :)
Change of topic, but what kind of black paint did you use on this vehicle? Is it matte?
Hi mate, yes it was rust oleum black matte.👍
Good idea but why not restart the video after 24hrs to show it sticks well
Video is 3 years old mate and I can tell you we only replaced the Velcro 4 times in 3 years 👍
Nice one mate looking good don 🤠🇬🇧👍👍👍

I screwed in a small center hole magnet on an external point on my cars. Pop the clips and drop them on the magnet. No more misplaced clips.
audio and video fine marc
ah awesome thanks for letting me know mate :)
Legend! This is genius!
geez thats one nice rig Marc you ever stick camera on them?

@@MarcRCAddict yes I agree thats a shame am lucky where I vacation can walk way out in water up waist easy recover boat
@@MarcRCAddict YA need calm water to really race it and recover
You really should clean the area with rubbing alcohol before trying to stick Velcro on.
Yup that’s a good tip👍
If you don't have body clips or magnets another really easy alternative is Bobby pins.. try it out they work ..😃
There’s loads of different little mods and tricks isn’t there mate 👍
@@MarcRCAddict yeah I just tried it out one day and was like these work great LMAO
Does this work on the Fast and the Furious Drift RC cars
It all depends if you can put Velcro on the chassis and car body and then join the two..
@@MarcRCAddict thank you
@@kellyelliott2736 pleasure 👍
How to make this for Rival MT10 ?
Hoping these will work on my hobao vte 1/8 😂
LOL l doin tbis tomorrow. With 3m tape the 1 they give u to stick in window for ez pass. If u Kno wut I mean. It snaps in really good
Hi mate yeah I know what you mean I use them to picture hooks, give it ago but Velcro large hook & loop is definitely stronger 👍
@@MarcRCAddict I'll keep that in mind have to run to Dept store or home Depot. And I'll pick up the Velcro large hook and loop! 😁😁For sure!!tank u. 👊
@@lightfreak my pleasure mate, happy rcing 👍

Thanks for your comment, it’s been 2 years and the Velcro has only been replaced once so I think I did a good enough job lol, happy rcing 👍
@@MarcRCAddict then you either got lucky or you are very good at eying the alignment. my comment is more useful for anyone reading it thinking of using velcro on their bodys.
@@dirtrider88 yeah I would say the latter, all comments will help newbies for sure 👍
Tried this. The velcro comes off after about a month.
Did you use true Velcro the industrial stuff? Ours lasted 6 months before we had to change it, I suppose it will differ from model to model and person to person 👍
@@MarcRCAddict Yes. It came of the car. I even tried using gorilla glue. Than it came off the body shell.
@@nick92065 ah shame it never worked for your works a treat for us .. happy rcing.
Just orded some velcro lol
Work for stampede
If your body touches the chassis but to be honest I’d keep the body clips on for the stampede
This has been around for more than 2 decades.
Yes it has, nearly as long as I’ve been rcing.. the good simple mods always stand the test of time as do good rc models..
Biggest irritation with the hobby. Removing shell to swap battery, turn on/off, etc.
Dang Marc got no likes on his comments but everybody else even me 🥺 got more likes than him
