Default My attempt at a Comp Wheely King

I started out doing the usual stuff like reversing the chassis and stretching the wheel base. Then i decided to buy an AX10 so i let my dad use the WK. But it just kept getting hung up and tipping over.

So i decided to do some work to it to make it compatible to the AX10.

I started with the transmissiom. It needed to be lower and i wanted the motor on the bottom.

Then it needed a new chassis, so i got out the hacksaw and files and started making one using the AX10 as a rough pattern.

I still have to make the battery mounts for the front axle but i thought i'd just show a few pics.

Thanks,
Neil

Sorry i don't. I don't have any software like that. But it really wasn't hard to make. I just cut a square piece of 2.5mm aluminium, cut of all the mounting points from the transmission housing. Laid it over the motor, where i wanted it to be, and marked it with a pencil.
