Tesla chassis up-close

Post by TokyoProf »

I came across a Tesla chassis display in Fukuoka, Japan. Very impressive. Like an electric RC car, fewer parts, one piece design, parts that cross over with other models, great center of gravity, solid construction, etc. I recall Elon drawing inspiration from an RC car/toy car for building full size cars. I didn't have money to invest at the time...but my basic RC experiences and knowledge suggested at the time, that it could be a winner.

So if you get into a small fender bender, it is totaled. :wink:
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.
