    RC truggy dedicated to Luna

    Well I'm a recently re incorporated fan to Radio Control models, I managed to build a small collection (mainly old stuff, vintage and such...) But I got some time ago a model truck from Tamiya...The cheapest from the pricy ones...

    The box even before of first opening...



    Scoots fooling in a tyre



    The planned design: (this dates from before having the kit)



    The framework.

    some tech tidbits...

    Electric 540 powerplant
    4wd alltime via two rigid axles with leafspring and piston dampers
    7 channel radio equippment.
    Integral LED lights.
    double Steering.





    The finalized model...







    I am planning to make a video of the little critter working, anyways, it's slow... (lol) and when it tips over I cry...

    Looks fancy! I can't say much more than that since I'm more of a computer engineer, not electrical. It does look pretty cool though! Did you have fun making it?

    Ohhh yesss... Albeit I developed a fond hatred for E-Rings... Now my dad wants one too (not ponyfied) , but some nod would be, because guess who would built it? Exactly, me!

    That looks awesome. It looked fun to make as well. I'm sure you can slip in a couple of pony references in your Dad's version (but, whatever you want to do is fine)
    Hola a tu tambien.
