I hope to have some pics for you soon...just got the styrene in the mail today.
Im struggling with how to do the suspension. I found a very cool and very simple way to use the music rod as suspension material....but not sure how to adapt it to the redcat axle.
The picture below shows it on a kyosho mad force axle. This axle is flat and has tabs that made adding the metal sides and delrin top plate fairly easy. The rods then go threw the delrin plate and act as the upper, lower links and the shocks....all in one!
But the redcat axles are MOA and have a lot in the way. I may need to mount a delrin plate off of the servo mount. The 2 holes for the upper link mount could work, but im not sure how to use the those to mount a delrin plate from those.
But if I can duplicate this design with the redcat axles, I will have a simple and compact suspension.
