looks damn good, bet the driver cant wait to get his hands on it after the petit :drool:

jimmy 12-01-2009 08:30 AM

Is it you Niggs? lol
yeah that car looks awesome I have to say!

RLGfx 12-01-2009 08:38 AM

I've got a one piece moulded chassis like that in the garage... :D

Mike Hudson 12-01-2009 08:50 AM

looks pretty ace, where do all the elecs go though? servo at the front but where does the rest go? :eh?:

lochness42 12-01-2009 09:35 AM

ESC will go under rear shock tower. At least it looks like that from photos. If PT and receiver will fit there as well - I'm not sure about that unless ESC is small.

Looking good Scott!! Iv had updates of the build txt to me from Scott, if it goes as good as it looks he'll be on to a winner!!

I imagine it will run a Tekin speedo as it's small in size

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 11:05 AM

On saturday it will have a big lrp brushless speedo thingy in the rear and ko receiver where ever the cells are not
he has made it from ali as it supposidley makes the car reassuring to drive and forgiving + durable + easy to produce/alter

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 09:50 PM

Body shell is now complete and a very good/snug fit, very low! the roof is nearly level with the top of the servo saver
its a bit ugly but time is ticking:blush:
just a splash of paint and electrics to go
scott asked if anyone has any setup ideas for carpet for it, some kind of safe starting point
cheers:)

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 09:57 PM

PICS of shell
the shells so tight the cells hardly need straps:lol:

Garry Driffill 12-01-2009 10:05 PM

I got a few shells from Northy ages ago for my Prototype Atomic Carbon S2. The shell was made from Coke bottles moulded on 2 planks of wood and a heat gun that was used to forge the shape..

I thought that was low, but that is mega low!! - Nice!

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 10:15 PM

Thanks ! thats how that one was done its functional and will look crisper and better painted:)

This is the shell - regret selling that car now soo much :cry:

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 10:28 PM

Looks realy nice and different scott says why did you sell it:eh?: and is mumbling his car will be faster haha:lol:joke

Garry Driffill 12-01-2009 10:31 PM

Just a little short of funds at the time so it had to go :lol: - It was really nimble and was pretty quick, gotta have been my most favorite 2wd ive ever had :)

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 10:50 PM

That was a shame if it makes you feel any better we have all sold something then realised how great it was after then lost the photos:cry:
Scotts hoping to make this chasis/proper body/hardwear availiable for around the £70 mark but will probably need some encouragement as hes already planing a 4wd:lol:

Garry Driffill 12-01-2009 10:52 PM

Cool, What 4wd based on?

Rebelrc 12-01-2009 10:57 PM

sorry i dont think its based on any one car tho i will let you know when/if he starts

franki 13-01-2009 08:35 PM

Northy 13-01-2009 09:03 PM
