|  semi-scale School Bus using the Diaz chassis
I have been playing with the 1:6 scal Nylints for a few months now and after modifying almost everything I could, I have decided to step up to a TLT based crawler. I wasn't sure whether to do a scale or a comp chassis, and ended up choosing a Diaz DS-1. The body I am going to use isn't very scale, but I wanted it to have a fun feel to it. I am going to use the Skool Bus body for this project. I will probably buy a scaler body just for show. The bus will be what I use when I go out to play. Onto the build:    Diaz DS-1 chassis extended shackles Pede tranny TLT axles Moped ESC 3305 servo 3500 - 7.2v NiMH juggy leafs traxxas hardened yokes and driveshafts either TLT or maxx shocks TQ3 2.2 moabs pede rims Skool Bus body It will also have 4ws in the near future.. Project build name: THE SHORT BUS ENJOY!!! Last edited by S-Dog; 07-19-2006 at 07:47 AM. |

If you're putting pics in the windows, you've got to get one of the guys to wear a bike helmet, and have somebody's azz pressed against the back glass |
