This is all done with an antenna tube, cut at 45deg angle so you get like an old ink pencil. Then strike it along the edge.

I've done more cars like this, search this threath for a couple more, maybe it inspires you.

Definitely not the cleanest or best looking out of the cars posted here but I still think it's pretty handsome.

My S411 Eryx powered by LRP electronics.





Shell for the 2013 season

Here is a pic of my VBC Wildfire.

For this one, I rerouted the servo wire so that it exited towards the center of the chassis instead of the left side. I also re-routed the antenna wire and hid it inside of the actual receiver casing itself. I elevated the receiver slightly and mounted my black MyLaps hybrid transponder underneath.

My ESC capacitor was servo taped towards the center of the chassis onto the ESC and fits perfectly between the ESC and battery.

Not sure if it's by design but your steering linkages attach to different holes on each knuckle.. Is that on purpose?
