Default Heat Sink 4 link!

fiddling around as usual and this is my take on 4 link.didnt have any alloy plate about so i used 2 old heat sinks from computer parts.they add weight to the axles because they are copper.also i moved the esc to the front behind the servo and put the battery on the rear.apart from the receiver which is under battery tray,all the electrics are now on the axles.got all the movement i want on the suspension and nothing binds or interferes.ive run out of rod ends now for the steering,so when i get some more ill test it outside

Good stuff! All going in the right direction - COG lowered (battery low down), four link.
Keep it up.

(Swap out those tyres for some HB Rovers or Sedonas [if funds allow] for a V good increase in grip and crawling abililty! Cheapest upgrade)

I like it! That is the exact thing that started this hobby. everything used to be crude and to the point. Function over form at its finest.
