http://www.RCSparks.com - 1080p HD! Tutorial Time: Tired of having an RC transmitter that looks like everyone elses? Did you just pay another several hundred $$ for a new radio that is identical to your friends? Well.....FiNALLY I have been able to do a tutorial on PAiNTiNG an RC Controller. So many people have requested I do this.. and though it seems a simple job, some could use a little guidence. Well, this video aims to please, as I move swiftly though the tutorial to give the viewer a general idea on how I would approach the job. The model I have in this video is the Spekrtum DX3R Pro.. a Radio for my wife JEM. Her old RC Radio was quite beat up.. and she needed a new one for the upcoming season. Well, I am happy to say it turns out beautiful!

Tools Needed:

1 Can of Tamiya Paint
1 Roll of Masking Tape
1 Roll of Duct Tape
1 Pick
1 Screwdriver
1 Sharp Razor
1 Blow Dryer
1 Pair Latex Gloves
a Home made paint booth

This project took me about 1 1/2 hours.. and the paint needs about 24 Hours to cure properly.. but SOO Worth the result!
