Status: offline 		and more pics............. yes I have been very busy as you can see...I did not post a final pic of the conversion because with the fairings on, It looks the same as a normal pocket bike, only thing that gives it away as something different is the seat bolts protrude through the seat now (you don't want to sit on this bike!!), also there are no handlebars and there are now 8inch drag bars on the sides.
A bit of info....
Bike is a chinese air cooled model
I am using a Spektrum DX7 system for the radio
4 channels are utilized on this conversion.
At this time only using 4.8volt rx pack(hope to try 6vlts soon.)
hs 81 micro servo for ignition cuttoff via a micro switch attached to the servo.
Standard digital servos for steering and throttle.
Using a Hs 700b 1/4scale servo for the rear brake....at this time the front is disconnected due to the servo does not have enough torque to pull both brakes at the same time. will be upgraded in the future.
Any comments and or questions on the conversion?
Hope you everyone enjoyed the pics.
Chris.
