I had many spare parts from Kyosho Raider and I thought I could build a new buggy:
... I needed many essential parts (shocks, bearings, shafts, suspension and steering arms,..)
I started by checking and lubricating the transmission:
"homemade " Suspension arms in aluminium
The shafts were obtained from a DVD-CD rom:
the chassis diagram:
Building the chassis with a polyethylene-aluminum composite sheet:
Building the front shock absorbers with aluminum tubes:
Building the steering arms with two long screws:
I have put ball bearings and a 380 motor to test the transmission:
Now, I start to assemble the parts of the transmission and steering in the chassis:
Servo and steering are assembled and adjusted:
It starts to look like a car...
The first test with a 540 motor, receiver, ESC and battery:
Building a custom bumper. The curve is obtained with heat from a soldering iron
Bumpers and body supports are already in place:
Receiver and ESC has been mounted with Velcro:
The lexan body is obtained from a toy-grade car:
It's done !!!!
the bumper is behind the body
With its "brother", the original Kyosho Raider:
