Just like the tittle says, I just finished the CAD for the new laser cut parts for the Turbo Javelin Mid SE roll cage concept rollcage I'm making:thumbsup:

Capturing details of the Javelin but incorporated on what it would have been a Mid version. I believe this project will end up looking just fine. :cool:

More updates later, stay tuned.

At last some updates on this project; the Javelin "Mid" rollcage concept... I have to say I am VERY pleased on how is turning out :wub.
Please try to ignore the junk looking chassis, it willl be fully disassembled and restored later with new wheels, tires and color matching wing.
I still have to make the side deflectors which will protect the servo and ESC and also give the look of the original side guards found on the original Javelin, sort of a "Mid" series side guard.

Finished!!!!:thumbsup:

Last night I performed a complete disassembly and through cleanup. Installed a new vintage Composite Craft chassis and installed the newly designed side guard deflectors. I still need a new wing, full set of wheels(only have two, shown), tires and gear cover to really call it finished, but is 95% there.
Here are some pics:

Please excuse the bad quality, I'll post better pics later.

Not really, but I do have the cardboard tab that came with the chassis
