I hate the SE remote! So i fixed it

Post by Sporttracguy »

Ok, im sure most of you know that the zzse remote is hard to hold on to and hard to use. Its pretty much an all around pain so i decided instead of just modding the stock remote with a different wheel or a handle that i would just take the dremel to it and hack it to pieces. :eek:

I cut out the steering section and the throttle section, made some brackets for them and mounted them inside of a pistol grip remote from one of those 1:24 4x4 trucks from TRU (since i gutted that car and put 1:18 stuff in it anyways)

The battery compartment was easily converted so that it would hold the se pack (easily removes to change batteries) and the steering handle was modified with a spair tire and wheel from that 4x4.

I now have a remote that is easy to hold on to and that has a decent antenna.

There really isnt too much to it,,, the whole project probably took me an hour and then another 4 so the jb quick weld could cure.
