Talk about thinking outside the box... using a servo for the drivetrain... that's brilliant.

I actually gutted all of the electronics out of the servo and then modded the main gear for continuous rotation so all thats left is the gears and motor

Thanks for the nice comments guys...

Wow that's pretty cool man! It must take quite a bit of patience to work on something so small and delicate!

So small, so cool. All the real tiny scalers are popping up over here now that there's a scale section. My new favorite section. Always a FSJ fan.

thats neat!, I was going to build up my super slick with a s-10 model.

The leaf springs are a nice touch.

I tell ya, 0-80 socket head cap screws and the nuts that go with them are small, and I have big ol sausage fingers. Its tough sometimes. I've also started using super glue for X-acto cuts now too, it saves on down time :-P

Just measured it at 4.6" which is a 110" 1:24 scale wheelbase. Close guess!

Thanks again for all the great comments guys. Let me know if you have any more questions...
