Amazing build. It looks just like the car you modeled it after. I am so curious how it would drive!

So custom!

[/quote]Wow Erik,

Those trailing arms are beautifully finished. i love the holes on them, makes them look industrial!

Thanks Alex,
They go hand in hand with the old Cadillac Swiss Cheese theme, aviation and a pinch of steam punk.

Thank you so much guys!
Unfortunately I lack the knowledge in CAD and CNC which I think is necessary if to construct a "conversion kit"
All is hand made with hand tools except for a crappy chinese mill and Dremel.
Though it would be awesome to offer you guys such a kit.

Brushless Stealth tranny done for the RC10 FF.
Grinded of a reinforcement knee on the housing to accommodate a stronger shock tower as I want to route the motor wires through the hole in the bulkhead.

A little comparison side-by-side with the RC10 Classic

Wheel base is identical but the layout is so different!

Looks amazing! I see 2021 build of the year winner.

yup....the fact that its an rc10 will garnish half the votes, the fact that its so custom and nice will get the rest...we're all screwed!

Like someone else said while I'm not a fan of the FF concept itself the craftsmanship and execution of this build is fantastic.

Thank you so much, RC10th

Shock tower 2.0
I wanted to route the motor wires through the bulkhead hole so a new shock tower had to be made.
This change resulted in that I had to grind of a small portion of the gearbox, but it had no structural support.. I think.
