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

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

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
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

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!

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

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
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
