1/10 LR3 Radio Contol Build

[franklin]

I figured I'd share. I decided to make a radio controlled LR3 based of one of the "toy RC" bodies out there to replicate what I would like my real LR3 to look like. Plus, it costs a lot less to mod in miniature! I started with the body made by Rastar-gutted the underside and scratch built a frame and drive train using steel and some components from my parts bin. I am not finished yet but you get the idea.

BRILLIANT... where did you get the body from?

The company that makes the body/toy is Rastar. They have them on eBay all the time-there are different scales-this one is 1/10.

That thing is phenominal, well done! Please do a video in action. This guy doesn't come close to yours but the exhaust smoke is pretty cool.
