Interesting Project Idea...

[What's_nitro?]

I was thinking () that this would make a sweet project. Something worth saving up for, and then, putting the time into anyways.

I want to buy two Ofna GTP kits and hack 'em up in order to put both steerable axles up front and the other two axles in back. I'd have a low kV outrunner bolted to each of the four diffs via a CV joint. 8s LiPo sounds like a good starting point, with CC HV45 controllers for each motor, and two Hitec 5955TG servos for the two steerable axles.

I found out recently that the HV110 controllers are capable of motor-braking with cars/trucks, so I'll use the motor brakes with the HV45's. It's an assumption, I know, but a reasonable one. Unless someone out there knows otherwise.

The body will be made from 0.125" polycarbonate and I'll have it bolted directly to the chassis. Color scheme? I was thinking black.
