Well this projects objective is basically to make a little rocket that i can drive in my street without having to worry abour the usual car crap scraping etc. This truck will also be made to handle with the best of them.

Holy Crap,

Can you say fast shipping just got my parts from hong kong that i ordered last week.

Rcxmini.com Is highly reccomended in my perspective!

Heres the parts gathered so far for this project

Ever wonder what a IW04 dissasembled looks like..........

Just installed a nelly 1.3 on my IW 04 and from what i can see it looks good still have to test it though, Also put some 10 kohm resistors on the servo motor so i dont burn it out with the higher voltage from the lipo.

I'm still expecting this lipo pack in the mail along with a plasmatomic.

About a 10A discharge rate continious!


Heres a list of cash spent on it so far.

Nelly 30.00

Bearings 8.00

Ball diff. 19.00

Rims 15.00

Lipo 27.00

Motor 30.00
