As you can see from this car I love to make own parts.
I really dont see anything special in new built edinger or so.
Homebuilt, own parts is what i'm in for.
I do lots of replicas also.
I dont put so much effort on wheels or screws.
Idont care if the car will not work.
I love this hobby and the best of it when you can make parts at home and show them to you.

Put the arms in place and everything goes in place perfectly.
Nothing symetrical but no worries yet.
It is under control.

I have a problem.
I dont know wich trans I`ll put in here.
I have watch the durango dex 2wd tran and I dont think there will be any problem to put it in.
Then in other hand I know I`ll only use 17.5 motor so the stealth could be an good choise also.
I have an MIP also but that one doesnt have slipperclutch.
A&L would be the best but I dont have that one.

No.
The chassis wich is in now will be replaced by an 2,1mm carbon.
When everything is in place I'll lightned the white plastic parts, if it is needed.

Big step did the car do today.
Now is the new chassis in the car and now it is superlight and very stiff.
Now the car look very pro.
The esc and the reciver will be placed on the battery holder.
I'll try to fit an kyosho ultima or an scorpion body to this car.

The wing took a little time because i made a template for every peice first then taped it togather to see how it would look.some looked better but this on was the easy one.i made a bi level one first but this one i like more.i used s band saw.vice.drillpress.and a handfile.because i had to use a bandsaw and no sander and to keep everything square i di alot of hand filing and checking with a square.even my wife likes it.when it comes to this hobby that means something to me lol.i have been looking for a peice of carbon fiber but i cant find a good price on a peice of 3mm thick.looking good now with the carbon fiber.i really like homebuilt handmade cars and parts.
