When Geeks Craft a Custom RC Lighting Kit
I have always been into cars. Especially model RC cars. Back in the day, I used to buy Radio Shack XMods and race those around. They were some of the coolest toys I remember having growing up. Now since Radio Shack doesn't exist and I still want cool RC cars, I found the Kyosho Mini Z line of cars. They are surprisingly better than I remember the X Mods ever being! In this week’s video, we go over how to add a custom light kit to an RC ca r (specifically the Celica GT-Four) and give the car a custom laser cut base with the glowforge.
