TOPIC:

i'll mainly use it on-road i will also use it off road though
i am looking for upgraded drive shafts aswell

update
won't get the chunky tires there isn't enough room on the arms. instead i will be getting these

i was going to put some screws in my old tires once the new ones get here but then i found this idea:

i will probably make a mould so all the paddles are the same
link to original thread
what do you people think?

Not very aesthetic but if it works...

so i tried the paddle tires but with hot glue, those didn't work the glue was too hard so it ripped off THEN i found these from a cheap tamiya clone, it looked like the aero avante df02 buggy but yellow



oooh spikes


FLEX shot


another flex shot


look at the servo horn the original one had a different spline so this was the mone from the wild one but cut up and drilled

close up of chewed up gears, be warned

Now don't go chewing them up on that roadway outside your house

i have new wheels and tires coming so these will probably be mainly used for bashing on dirt tracks

just made a horn for my car using my servo switch design but instead of leds its a relay driving a buzzer. its a pathetic sound for a monster truck jeep thing. imagine a vw beetle horn and times the stupidity of that by 10 i will post pics when the gears and tires get here

##update##
i made a battery from an old macbook battery that i found at the tip
3s2p 5800mah Li-Ion and for free

i have an old usb steering wheel for games and an arduino so i was thinking of setting it up so i use the wheel to drive it through the trainer port on my trasnmitter

Woo the gears came today
moved the motor to where the velcro was, gave it a test run and its great the ground was wet and my battery wasn't full charge so no full speed, once i give it a clean and the sun is out, i will post pics and vids
time to find a new wheel nut, it fell off when i was bashing it up my driveway
the gears have very little wear after the bashing, if they were the old ones they would be destroyed

the tires/wheels came today, they just complete the care, it looks much better.
sorry about no pics, have been busy with school, my birthday and sydney maker faire
