hello guys.
this is my kyosho twinforce that i've been working on and off and on and off for the past couple of months...
although i really like this truck, its my most unused truck of all time!!
things that i like most bout this truck is that its light weight and fast...even with stock titans!

but my all time pet peeve is them batts!
all ugly and hanging off the sides of the chassis!!!

so this is one thing i had to "fix"

which initially was a simple 180 of the motor location.....but since i might wanna run my HV in there, i had to fix the reverse rotation brought about by this flip. so.....i flipped the F/R diffs as well.....hopefully torque steer wont affect its performance...too much.





after i got to this stage.....i realised that i didnt like the look of straps holding down the batts, so i wanted to fab some sort of alu batt hold downs....

also...

here's where things got a little more complicated. the esc had to sit somewhere else as i didnt like the idea of the esc sitting on top of the motors. nothing to do with high CG blah blah...just didnt like the look.......
here's the pic of the new layout....


where them batts gonna go????!!!!!

haha...

here's a close up
