Good use of scrap parts! Nice body, I snagged one very similar at a yard sale. I might have to do something with it now...

I found a flaw in my design when i tryed to set up a chassie mounted servo it just wont work the front of the chassie is to high and the chassie is to narrow for a cms to work right so on the axle it goes
