  21. Thanks for the props and concern. Brushless motors from server cabinets, I've been using this model of fans for years.
  22. Some really awesome builds in here. I had no idea there were so many Snap kits available. I always figured there would be some good engineering in these. I found out there is some really bad engineering in some of these. I helped my niece with the Grave Digger, wholly ckrap I ended up cutting a number of clips and instructing her where to glue them. Total piece of junk. We also did the Blazer Emergency vehicle, some decent design engineering in that one. Has anyone done a Tamiya Snap Loc kit?
  23. Cheers Thanks man, no photos, just my minds eye. I like different, :-) Thanks dude! Thank you, I posted a response to your post in the link you provided. Thanks
  24. If you have an Air Brush of any type you can do most of what I did here. First off I put a very thin wash in the air brush. Sorry I have no idea what ratio, I mixed what I used for my Camel Porsche years ago. But when doing this stuff you want to build layers anyway. Set the car with the front end raised about an 1" Shoot the air brush at the front end varying the angles, up down, side to side etc etc, simulate air movment over the car. You can simulate air speed variances with different air volumes and psi. I do this a number of times, building up layers. Then I go around with a very low psi and narrow fan playing with what my minds eye sees. I am curious to see what 1:1 NACA ducts actually look like. I can't imagine they have that much of a tarnished intake flow signature. I hope this helps you some what, good luck man.
  25. Very cool. I had to check the form to make sure I was in the finished section. I like this a lot, but I truly thought is wasn't finished.
