The Case:

As u all know, micro T's don't come with a case to keep them in when your not using them or when u are taking them out with u... so I though I would make my own... and here it is...

Image

Image

I made a mesh tray, which I painted black to sit the batteries on while they charge... I also added a 40x40mm PC, powered via a 9v PP9 battery, which will kool the motor down between runs...

The Micro T :

now for the micro T side of things... my current spec is:

- ********** bb motor
- ball bearings
- alloy shock set
- alloy front skid plate
- threaded steel Wheel shaft shafts

and of cause, the custom hard plastic body, which as u can see I am still working on... lol...

Image

the body I got from a 1/32 nissan king cab - Tamiya kit... which I have had to cut the rear cab out of to make the body lenght shorter to fit the micro T's wheel base...

The Ramps:

Here is a pic of my frist 2 ramps I made from cereal boxes...

Image

I will get some vidz made soon....

Update:

just added a better longer aerial, along with the new rims and another body, which I will use along with the custom one, once I get it finished... lol...

I also made some spacers to stop the adjustable o-ring slipping back up to the top, on the HR shocks... I kut up some spare tubing from RC aerial to make the spacers with...

after seeing a tut Suzuki did using some plastic tubing from wire end connectors...

Below is a black widow spider design I did, which I will print onto some decal paper for the sides of the above body...

That case kicks ass! I need one now. :lol:

It'll be cool to see that Nissan finished. On the black one those are the wheels I wouldn't mind having either.

Jump the dog, jump the dog! :lol:
Man, I was jumping over the cat over and over again. Then when I told my wife to grab the camera, he decides to finally move.

Cool vid. I like the last shot of it coming at the camera.
