Default M4D - 4WD buggy from France

I heard about this a little while ago, but i've just found it on another forum..

http://www.gaz-on.net/M4D-Middle-Fou...e-Tout-Terrain

Seems to be using some of the s4 parts and ideas?

Yeh think theyve copied it. The s4 clone looks nice. Have you anodised the aluminium parts in silver?

S4 clone: many similarities but nice job! 1 prototype among so much others in the world...

and the real copyright is: (Not nice M4D! to modify the (c)- source Petit rc/Boulain)

For my first test, I use a front shock tower of S4 but now it's personal drawing front shock tower , it's on the picture.
