Got a lot of work done. Overcame a lot of obstacles too.
Realised that with the gen.1 front end I wouldn't be able to get and of the engine in.. http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1387.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1388.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1389.jpg Ditched that idea too.. Grabbed an old credit card, traced the gen.1 front end and cut it out. I realised I wouldn't need the front suspension or the shock towers etc. all I really need is the knuckles mounted somehow. I found some miniz AWD alloy knuckles lying around. Going to use those so I can simply incorporate the suspension on the knuckles like the miniz. Saves me a LOT of space. http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1395.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1396.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1383.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1381.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1382.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1398.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1397.jpg Cut up the trunk and extended it with some more servo cases. Lol. White outline is the original size. http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1352.jpg Where it will be now. http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1353.jpg Also had to sand off the bottom. To make it flush with the extension :sad: http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1354.jpg Perfect fit. http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_DSC1355.jpg http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/...a/_CSC1384.jpg I should be able to come up with a suitable steering setup tonight. Also, the credit card isn't permanent. Lol. Just to see if this kinda setup will work. For electronics I'm gonna use a miniz board(smallest board I have. Lol), servo can either be a hi-tec 55 or a microT servo. Anybody have any suggestions on that? Also, I need to a battery source for this thing. Anybody have any suggestions? a spare set of lipos/ AAA- liths they can donate? Lol Because of the Peshawar attack, schools are closed. So should be working on this day n' night. |
