TedsModeling Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I love to see those reference photos in the background. Did you have a set of plans for the chassis or did you work off of photos and on-site observations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comp1839 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 i wanted to get the back of the car in a more finished state. like the chute mounts, battery mounts, battery kill switch, etc. so the first thing to do is make some chutes. these will be stroud's w/ co2 launchers. these aren't complete yet but you get the idea.
