Plus you can say "I have stacked steering FETs, take that!" For the body... maybe cut the interior, and raise the floor up, al'la xmodification style to give room, and keep the interior.

Yes, I know there are ways, but with a Jeep body there really isn't too much room to work with since the whole interior and trunk is wide open. Unless he makes a tool box and stuff to shove it into, I see very little room. Plus, I don't believe he would want to mount anything on his cross-brace or on his axles because that would be obvious and look awkward.

I'm shocked at the size of your wheel base. That's quite the stretch from front tire to rear tire. About how long is the whole RC and about how long is the wheel base?
What ESC do you plan on going with? If I were you, I'd try to find something that's an ESC and receiver all in one to reduce the size; something like the MicroT ESC/Receiver.

You just put the servo on backwards, so it controls the reverse way. Say you turn left, it will turn right. You make one reverse, and the other normal..

Thanks for all you guys comments and sorry for the long replies, I've been waiting to have an update.
Anyways the wheel base from front to rear axle is 5 3/4 and the wheel base is exactly 4 inch long. yep...that sucks, But not anymore Hows the ground clearance? Last but not the least, That's how much the articulation is without the additional weight, So im pretty happy with it Last edited by c1v1c; 08-07-2008 at 11:46 PM.. |
