RE: dr. frankenstein
This took about 2 houjrs to make and it went about 20 mph. It was really cool but it took like 15 feet to get up to full speed.
It was a RC10t/Pan Car/Airplane. Btw Matt I have not seen the evader and df-02 mixed that is sweet how does it run?
Then here is My PRoject Black Magic Truck, Took about a week to make.
It is a XTM Mammoth/Emaxx/Custom Parts
Then My 4x4 stampede
IT was 2 pedes put together.
My IWaver 41 Willies
It was a stok IWaver 01 and a 41 willies model
Then my Drag Car with a parachute
It was just really fast and cool
Then my 37 Hemi Legends
Drag car chassis modified for a legends body. The thing has flew in the air before! I ran a 9 turn in it and hit a little dip in my driveway and went airborne!!
My Radioshack Dodge Raminator with a 27 turn midnight pro motor
This thing was fast and ramped good cause of the shocks and weight!
I have many more but didn't take pictures like my Castrol Pan car (castol motor oil can with a pan car fron and rear end it was cool but top heavy!)

RE: dr. frankenstein
No pics showed up on yur post.
Well the df02/evader is gone now but when I had it the handling was very delicate. Very slight steering inputs or it would constantly spin out. The suspension was great but the super short wheelbase proved to be hard to handle.

RE: dr. frankenstein
Nikko Truck, gutted, replace electronics with hobby grade, 4 wheel drive with dual motors.
Runs okay when running straight, rolls over when turning too quick. The main tubular frame twists and returns to center nuetral position by springs for crawling
But its going back to the drawing boards because its just to high and it is not stable.
