Looking good mate

Woops then a big update it is then

Well so far the rear and front bumpers have come along with the motor which have all been fitted. I have also taken it for a test run which went pretty well i took vids to they are being uploaded as i speak.

The front and rear bumper

The one thing that did scare me about the bumpers was what it said on the packaging

I have also started to Build the roll cage as i call it ready for when the body is painted and then i can fit it on the car it self.

It was an easy build, Though the thing i found worrying is were i joins at the bend it would be easy to snap it off as there is not much strength in the corners until you fix the whole unit together. So i would say just be careful when making it.

Well Here are the pics so far of the build and after its first run

The front: Still need to add the lights

The rear bumper

The steering is done by a Spectrum Hi torque racing receiver, I may look into what servos are the best but for now im happy with that in for now

As you all know the Motor is a Ezrun 32T brushless Motor which seems to go really well, Its all connected to a speky receiver and controlled by a Speky DX 3.0

The car is currently running on a 3000 Nihm but i will be changing it to a 2s lipo and hopefully Fitting a Tamiya Light system to it as well

Well thats it for now i will post the videos as they upload and i will make sure that i keep this thread up to date.

Regards

Oh man that first upside down vid does me in lol, glad to see you getting out with it now mate

[seanmcgrath48]

It's too early in the morning to be watching this Vid...LOL..

I'd move your battery as far forward as you can...

Make a bracket and mount like this.

or move the battery plate as far back on the front mounts as you can like this..you'll have to drill extra hole and cut abit off the plate..
