hi, I have been working on a homemade 1/5 scale rc car for a little while now.

It's going to be a 29cc chung yang engine with an hpi baja gearbox and powertrain.
It'll also have all the suspension components from an hpi baja.
-I decided to get pre-made parts for those places because, first off, I don't have the proper machining equipment for making proper gearboxes and gears, etc. and I like how the wear-items will be replaceable. I don't want to crash it, but if I do, the first thing that'll break are the front a-arms, I think, so that's why I consider them wear-items.

The main part that I will be making myself is the chassis. The chassis will be tubular, tig welded, and made of 3/8 inch mild steel tubing. (I do have a tig-welder)

So far, I already have most of the components, they can be seen in the pictures I attached.

Also, in the pictures, you can see a mock-up I made out of wooden dowels, so that's what it'll look like in the end.
