Another great product from Fine laser designs. I've got this on my scx6 and it's worked great through mud, rollovers and drops. super easy to install and included everything you need. If i have a truck that Fine laser designs makes a kit for it's on my truck. Other reviewer may want to check driving style or install as mine has taken a beating and still works flawlessly
This makes opening up the Honcho very simple. It's a very secure fit that looks like it will survive a tumble without breaking. Fine Laser Designs also give a pretty good warranty on their products.
Easy to install. Works great. I would highly recommend this.
I purchased this from Kevin at Etsy. This is the ONLY way to access your Trail Honcho. Easy to install. Easy to access the interior. You’ll look at your lonely clips and wonder what you can do with them. I’m not sure if they’re sold here but Kevin has a system to hold that body up so you can be hands free installing your battery. Now if he’ll create a better more functional cover for the receiver box. With a smaller box on top for a place to put all that excess wire in. I cut most of the stock top so the esc will run cooler and quieter. And I moved the esc switch to the top. Why would you locate a lighted switch to a place where you can’t see it? Unless it’s nighttime. Beautiful rig. But still a rush job. The whole “hidden body clip” design was NOT ergonomic. Hard to get to and…”where are my clips?” Rush job!
This is 3rd time I've purchased products by Fine Laser Design and I am always impressed. Great fitment and quality construction. This item is a must have for the SCX6 Honcho!!
Reviewers largely praise this hood latch system for the Axial SCX6 Honcho, describing it as easy to install, secure in fit, and effective for opening the body. Several note it has held up through mud, rollovers and drops, and two verified owners report consistent satisfaction with fitment and construction. One reviewer reports the latch broke on the first roll and says it should be aluminium instead, which conflicts with the durability reports. One reviewer mentions a warranty from the manufacturer. Several reviews are short, and one longer review covers unrelated modifications and a third-party seller, so it is less directly about this product.
