Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o My friend Danally made a mistake and showed me how cool the Scorpion chassis is. I thought I would share what I have found so far. "thumbsup" A quick search revealed this underlying drawing. I've added some lines to get started. The drawing is not very accurate though. The front view is a bit wider than it should be in proportion to the side view, and the 188" is way off... I'm going to narrow the chassis width to 1:24th scale, 3.3" . Everything's a tradeoff but I think it's a pretty good starting point. http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...psfd240b22.jpg |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o I know whatever you do will be spectacular. The secret to this chassis is to keep it simple. I'll be watching!!! |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Good things are about to happen here! I'm guessing this is gonna be a 3D printed job? Is this gonna be a build-off between you two? Steel VS. plastic? Man VS. machine? I can't wait to see this unfold either way! |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o AWESOME!! "thumbsup" Can't wait to see a printed version |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Exciting thing happening in the world of micros right now...... |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Is the MK-1 tactical vehicles site still up? There for a fer yrs you could buy scorpions from there. |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Update! My buddy was able to do some work on the Scorpion. :D http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...psf49127df.jpg |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o All the CAD pics are great but when can we get our hands on some of your chassis????????????????? I wouldn't mind getting my hands on some that didn't make the cut..Ya know the ones that didn't pass QC :ror: Keep up the killer work "thumbsup" |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Something about that is just so right! I think it is my new FAVORITE! It must be cause it is so different. You know, maybe since I was the one that started this one...hint hint :ror: No doubt my rims would look very "military" on it too! |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o yet another awesome chassi :cry: Fungi is the biggest tease!!!! |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Wicked!!!!! |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Here's a better view. Much more info coming soon. Well done to my buddy! He really outdid himself! http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...psfafa3524.jpg |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o I noticed there is a center piece.....it would be sweet if you could make a universal skid to interchange between fungi tubers. |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o malofish- I believe his idea is to use an adjustable universal side plate system with the stock skid. I may be wrong though. The idea I like most is that you can possibly swap the plates between his chassis'. If that's not enough, the stock skid can then be transferred into other chassis designs on the market that suit a stock skid. Adjustable, but not fully proprietary... |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Yeah the dual plates should make it hackable for other transmissions. They are relatively easy to make, even by hand. |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o I'll take one of each please :lmao: |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o maybe one day well have fungis goods. one day.... |
Re: Jim's Old School Scorpion! O.o Just a thought...what about a truck version off of the 4 door footprint? I think that would look cool too?!? |
