Default A'lil update on my tuber Scorpion

After trying some materials for the body panel, I went for some plastic sheet. It is flexible and easy to work with....

here's some pics without electronics. Still waiting for a 10A voltage regulator to power up the servo. The Hitec HS 5955TG is capable for 24kg/cm and so the current at stall on 6.0V is around 4.2A. The MAMBA Mac has a BEC only for 3A... this will smoke your esc to useless matchbox. The 10A BEC is from Castle Creations. It is designed to gives 10A max with a wide range input voltage. Bonus is, the BEC voltage is adjustable. The max input voltage is 24V..amazing!
