Thanks! I'm glad you liked the build...it looks like I will continue to develop this car in the up coming months..
To my dismay... I'm having to revisit this project sooner then I would have liked.. I have recently become a Contributing Editor for a magazine.. I sent some pictures of this project to them to check out and they want me to send it to them for pictures and want me to write an article on it...
Currently its fully disassembled..So i have to replace the broken parts with some new ones and try to figure out the suspension issue before I send it out.
Sooo be looking for this project in... Rcdriver mag.
So guys after looking over this project...I'm thinking it might be better to switch to a regular stand up shock set-up.. the inboard shocks do add alot of weight..and its very hard to figure out the right spring stiffness and all the geometry with out knowing the mathematics yet. I'm thinking about keeping the revo shocks..but redesigning it to use stand-up shocks..this would allow me to lighten it up alot and be able to get the suspension to work properly. I ofcourse would keep the rest of it the same because I think the rest of it works great.
What do you guys think? Should I work on refining the laydown suspension with possibly Team xtreme X11 parts...or should I go to stand up shocks?
