We can change that!

Looks awesome so far krawlfreak! I am digging the servo mounts

krawlfreak · 10-17-2009, 10:01 AM

updates.........................................

wheels and tires;

the available wheel with a 12mm hex is not much by any means. i found some 14mm hex adapters from new era that just needed to be drilled out to 6mm

i went with some hpi 8 spoke maxx size wheels with a 14 mm hex.
wheels straight out of the package into the saw.

narrowed up to 1.25" outside to outside 1" at the bead

krawlfreak · 10-17-2009, 10:10 AM

first shot at cutting and gluing tires. rovers @ 6.5" tall

mounted

and for the steering test. full lock.

Redwood · 10-17-2009, 10:33 AM

WOW nice work...

DiEzel · 10-17-2009, 12:29 PM

krawlfreak · 10-17-2009, 01:36 PM

weight update:

complete wheel tire and foam combo 5.25oz

car as it sits now with wheels and tires 5lbs 10oz

electronics will be light and a battery should keep me within or very close to my 6.5lbs goal.
