This weekend was very productive. It might not look like it, but it was. Think of the amount you get done as the graph of an exponential function: the more you get done, the harder it is to do more. A lot of what I did was touch up type stuff. I added the deans connectors with that cool little mount I designed for my Savage. I don't have wires yet because I'm not sure how to do it but they will hopefully come soon. I rebuilt the entire car as a new assembly which helped immensly: It allowed me to go over every single part and find out what I could do to make it better. A lot of the aluminum has chamfered edges which, I think, makes it look better. I added all of the fastners such as screws, bolts, and body clips. The nosecone isn't mounted yet because I havet to figure out how to make it structurally sound. There were a lot of other little things, but I think I'm starting to ramble so I'll stop. Here are some pics:
I'm not extremely happy with the renders and it's pretty frustrating and time consuming to get them right. I hope I can get some good ones this week or next weekend. One thing I can't change too much is the way the rear wings look super bright: they are mostly flat which translates into poor rendering. I'll work on it though. Hope you guys like it.
