Its a popular request. No one has worked out how...yet.Hopefully someone'll find out how soon. I recon ph2t or betty.k will be the first to discover how to do it.

i saw these tiny hydraulics on mythbusters last week
they were about 4 to 5 inches long
they could be used for a monster bit, maybe?

sorry mastercool, i'm happy with the performance of steel springs so i probably won't try this one. just a thought though, check out some lego. i know they used to have a hydro setup (no not that sort! :-( ) which had air compressers and the like. or you could just mount a motor with an off center weight under the shell, that should make it bounce around! :disturbed:

ya that would work good, but i was thinking more of just being able to jak it up and lower it with the push of a button

Why no take the pcb and some of the parts from a mixrosizers monster truck and transplant into a bit chassis? Since the truck does have the motor funtion for the front end "claw" should make it easier to do than using two pcbs.

i believe that what he did was he put a suspension bar on it with the top of the tie bar is flat and he like glued a gear to it and mounted a motor on the chassis and the motor makes the tie bar push the knuckles down therefore rasing one side.very crafty but easy to do if you get what i mean.be kinda hard to fit a body also.
