  • You can find the Axial SCX6 Honcho over here: bit.ly/3DqEBdN
    And the Jeep version here: bit.ly/3BKrqmN
    Or of course over here: bit.ly/3BiFz99
    Today I'm painting the RTR Red Axial SCX6 Trail Honcho. With a few simple tweaks you can make this body look a lot better, while also adding scale realism by truly turning it into a Toyota Tacoma. I walk you through the entire paint process, show you how I chose to add some details and decals and show you the end result which you will also be able to achieve. I'm using really simple materials: some masking tape, a few cans of Tamiya PS paint for polycarbonate bodies, a sharp exacto knife, some scissors and of course the most important ingredient, a lot of payience. Be sure you work in a well ventilated area when using spray paint and always wear a mask.
    If you are looking to convert your Axial SCX6 Jeep, the parts listed below are required to turn your JLU into a 6th scale Trail Honcho!
    AXI250013 Demello Offroad Front Bumper - bit.ly/3BkB0Lv
    AXI250014 Honcho rock Sliders - bit.ly/3QQC7Z5
    AXI250015 Honcho SCX6 Fender Liners Front - bit.ly/3Ll0uNq
    AXI45002 2.9" Falken Wildpeak M/T with Foams (2) - bit.ly/3Uexpr9
    AXI250011 Body & Interior set - bit.ly/3eWZ4wA
    AXI250012 Rear Cage Set Trail Honcho - bit.ly/3QRUIEd
    AXI250016 LED kit 20st SCX6 Trail Honcho - bit.ly/3qHRwQT
    Finally another version of the Axial SCX6 has arrived: The Trail Honcho! Taking some key features from both the 10th scale Trail Honcho and the recently released Axial Basecamp, this 1/6th scale giant packs an enormous amount of scale details and cool features to grab your attention and peak your curiosity. Numerous hard plastic details are used on the bodyshell and the interior panel, the rear cage has a new, more aggressive look with an integrated stinger. There is a trunk in which you can pack away some tools or spares, a fully functional spare tire is included on the back and 20 LED lights illuminate the darker days and nights. Below all these new visual novelties you find the same trusted SCX6 chassis, with an all new Demello Offroad front bumper, some new bar styled rock sliders and updated internal wheel arches to keep things clean. How does it compare to the Jeep, and what does it take to convert the Jeep? The all new Axial SCX6 is a 1/6th scale trail truck that packs a ton of features which you might know from its smaller brothers and sisters. This brand new developed vehicle has licensed items and some familiar looking design elements, such as the Trail Honcho bodyshell, the Black Rhino rims and the Falken Wildpeak 2.9 tires. Electronics are as you expect them all Spektrum branded, and thankfully the 2-speed transmission also made its way into this recent version.

    One thing I did to my SCX6 is to cut the clear stickers on the windows and windshield. It gives it a more realistic look and you can see inside the cab better. I just took a blade and cut around the black trim sticker and peeled off the opaque sticker and left the black trim and windshield sunshade behind..

    Have a question from the past on a vehicle, which you are very knowledgeable of that is the axial yeti xl. I am thinking of, off road speed running for 100 mph spot I have upgraded most of the drive line worked on the sloppy steering over the years. I have it sitting on a table in the corner looking for some fun, do you think the chassis is up to the challenge in your experience with the chassis design over the years, also sway bars installed, was going to upgrade the spring steel on the rear to help keep that straight axle planted. Also upper rear links replaced with aluminium and all link mounts changed to cnc stuff lower links are those reinforced plastic from the kit. I was thinking castle mamba monster x with capacitors and 1100kv motor with the right pinion spur gear combo running 8s will it get the yeti xl to 100mph. Or will that rear end keep it on the slower side just reaching out for a thought. Also enjoy the new content stay blessed have a excellent rest of your year someone should speed run the scx6 to 100mph in the off road attempt 😀 Real question is who has the nerve to sacrifice a 1000 bucks for some rc fame. Once again stay blessed hemistorm

Just one question on the black backing paint, did you consider the possibility of using some of the gold colors before the black to maybe give it more "shimmer" to the thin orange?
