We had a chance to finally assemble the Hobby Plus CR18P Rock Van – well, what assembly there was to do!
Hobby Plus offers this cool little van as an RTR and a semi-assembled kit, or Builder’s Edition. In the Builder’s Edition, items like the transmission and axles come pre-assembled, giving you some of the experience and fun of actually assembling your rig.
We also went a different direction with the van body – instead of a classic or popular TV show paint scheme, we went with a more adventure-theme – tan paint, flat upper coat and a cool set of adventure-ish graphics from SOR Graphics.
Check out the video of our build as well as some tips on the electronics, wheels and tires and body.
For more info on this ride, check out our review of it here: (coming soon)
Enjoy the video!
