Welcome to the step-by-step-build of the WPL C-34KM (Metal Edition Kit) 4WD RC Car/Truck with the highly detailed Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 Hard Body. No rush, no waffling, no time lapse, (almost) no music ... just pure and raw RC Car building ...
Note to Step 9: Hammering and filing at own risk. I am sure there is a better solution. The mesh of the pinion and ring gear on the rear axle was even a tighter fit than the front axle. In the meanwhile I watched a video from Everyday RC with this tip and tried it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuUNpO-ciew
The WPL C-34KM was kindly provided by Banggood, free for review and tests. You can check out prices and specifications with these (non-affiliate!) links:

Notes (for those who care):
- This series is not intended as 'high entertainment' or as a 'bullet-proof build guide'. Just my personal build including all mistakes and mishaps.
- I hope that people will join the build and especially share their experiences here with their current or past build and the individual steps of the WPL C-34KM. If you notice any mistakes, wrong screws or have any tips please share in the comment section! - With the minimal instructions provided by WPL, it is my hope that somebody, including me, will benefit from these videos and the comments from you!
- I might be forcing the parts too hard or/and in the wrong order. Please be more careful with your own kit or the plastic parts might break during assembly.
- If you want to paint the body - the easiest way is to paint the parts (exterior as well as interior) individually before the assembly. Also: Small amounts of glue could secure some of the smaller parts on the body better. I left mine un-glued, so I always can go back and easily disassemble the body again (if I want to paint it).
- The raw video form with minimal editing/music and no time lapse is very intentional. Let's just build, without hurrying along and with enough time for you to see what is going on, make up your own mind about the kit, maybe join in on the build ... or just enjoy some pure RC Car building with no endless talking (trust me, I have been known for that). Remember, you can always pause/rewind the video to inspect the parts used more closely. Also, if it get's too quiet, please feel free to put on your own favorite music while watching.
- I have divided the series into the 12 steps according to the official manual, so it will be easy for you to find the exact steps you are interested in. If there is any interest, I will also include the necessary steps not included in the manual (wheel weights, tires, electronics).
- Let me know in the comment section what you think of this build video format. First time I've tried it. I just needed to try it out. For previous build video series with loads of music, editing and time lapse - check out the video-lists and playlists in my channel. For endless RC talks and RC waffling, check out my secondary channel.
