Real hodge podge of bits on that car, lots of printed parts, lots of worn looking and random hardware.

I wonder how far away they are from having the design finished.

I see you've shared a link to the R/C Tech Forums discussing the AGAMA 1/10th 2wd. It's always exciting to delve into the world of remote-controlled cars and explore the design choices and innovations that enthusiasts bring to the table. I appreciate the unique perspectives shared in this thread, from the interesting design choices to the creative use of printed parts and hardware. It's fascinating to witness the evolution of this buggy and speculate about its future development. The steering rack seems to have caught the attention of one member, while others find certain aspects intriguing or have questions about the design's progress. These discussions create a sense of community and camaraderie among fellow R/C enthusiasts. It's fantastic to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for this hobby. The R/C Tech Forums provide a valuable platform for knowledge exchange, where we can learn from one another and fuel our enthusiasm for this exciting pursuit. Keep the conversations going, as your insights and discussions contribute to the growth and evolution of the R/C community. Enjoy the journey and keep pushing the limits of R/C car design and performance!

I didn't even know you could get linear rail that small. Wonder how it will hold up to dirt?

was curious after following the MRO Inspire4 and then seeing the Agama N1/N1E what a 1/10 scale platform with th Agama shock layout could look like. With the 13mm shocks that are getting common now, getting these down low be curious to see how performance, if at all, is improved over more conventional designs.

Looks like some yokomo bits sprinkled in there...shocks/springs, front hub carriers, steering plates...

Nice fresh design. Looking forward to seeing the final version.

Man if you could adapt a rotary damper setup like an awesomatix touring car to a buggy.

That would be dialed for ultimate low CG on hi bite!

I'm guessing it will be more directed towards carpet? It doesn't give the option of putting the shocks further out on the arms to adjust the cornering traction.

I presume you can have the same affect by changing the rocker ratio.

You'd just adjust up / down on the rockers, same thing.
Interesting concept, big challenge is going to be packaging the steering system whilst getting decent geometry from it. I'm not saying it's not possible, just challenging...
