Pretty simple. Hollow out the driver's chest, stick a micro servo in it. Attach the head to it. I drilled and tapped the servo to m3 to match the stud in the driver's head. Steering wheel is even easier. I screwed it to the chassis and stuck the steering column onto the output. Attach some Y cables to the main steering servo and you're good.

A little bit of heat, some bending and some screws to hold the pieces down

Favorite looking Wraith so far, great detail. The hood is beautiful, I'd be afraid to smash it. I want a lexan one just like it. Amazing craftsmanship Love the Yota theme!

Wow Rich- very original and awesome man....if I hadn't sacrificed my IT salary to return to a fulltime photography position recently, I would be sending you m wraith right now.....needless to say, I took a 20k annual hit to return to my true love - photography fulltime - so I am wihtout my usual funding. However, I am much happier so il have to settle for watching your awesome and improving video work.... Great job man, the driver, the body....it's all really creative and new. Great job.

The body is surprisingly hard to hit. With the giant tires and wide axles sticking out it's a good barrier. I rolled it a few times, some on camera, some not. I only got that one scratch on the hood.

Don't have a pic for you, but all I did was screw the aluminum to the outside skid plate. Not fancy at all.
