Nichimo Spirit FF

Started to design an upgraded steering setup, that´s compatible with RT5 chassis plate, but incorporates and RT6/RB6/RB7 style steering bell crank system. One benefit with this is also a simplified service, less parts and simple ackerman adjustability. Its still work in progress state, so dont mind ...

Most of the parts are now almost ready to print. I just need to modify steering servo position towards the front.

That's a cute trick , I'll have to remember that one .

Been busy Printin ! I got quite deeply inspired by the Prototype White Samurai's that were sent by the Marui team to the 85 worlds , ever since I saw them I was in love :P https://i.imgur.com/na72bF1l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JupOJzTl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/N4b0FFgl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4ehZiJ1l....

Adjusted steering servo position towards the front. Its now in the correct position when thinking about the steering geometry. It wasn´t an easy task, because this plastic chassis concept really isn´t meant for this. The front servo position needs an chassis integrated servo mounts, because there re...

Just for curiosity and delusion of grandeur, i ordered RB6.6/RB7 laydown transmission case. Lets see what can be done with that. Fiddled around with the rear motor configuration and tested swapping it around. Lots of stuff would need re-design if i just simple wanted to use rear motor gearbox with r...

Wow, the car looks great!
Another nice departure from standard box art.

This stupid idea popped into my head and everyone loves an FF right ?

This project is starting to turn away from RT5 SP1, but i think its fine. I had to do so many modifications, that the chassis lost is compatibility with previous parts and most of the official parts. It kind of looks like a RT5/RT6. https://hitecmods.kuvat.fi/kuvat/RC/Ultima%20RT5%20Service%20Pack/R...

Quite a thorough redesign of the front piece and drew up some shock towers , then i had to redesign the shock towers because the dog bones would be obstructed

Now with steering and drive shafts

Thanks for the feedback! I'll see if i have time to make the changes to the idler tomorrow and i will send you the updated .stl free of charge. The gearbox cover with rear susp supports looks awesome btw! I might have to silently use that idea in my own chassis as well, cause that looks slick! Your ...
