MyProto MZM

Hello people,

Since I finalized my Mini-Z Crawler project I didn't use it too much because of fragility problems on some pieces (front and rear gearbox), so I decided to make something more functional.

Original project: http://mini-zracer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24999

I've bought new front and rear (Kyosho original) gearbox, GPM lower arms (two front ones) and i use some of the parts of the original project like the main chassis and some links.

So i decide to come back to the three links configuration in order to don't compromise the rigidity in the new gearboxes (using the original attachs for links and suspension) and I've installed a cantilever type suspension with GPM oil dampers.

Now i just have to install the ball bearings in the cantilevers and put the electronic on it. Body will be a F150 X-Mods.

Hope you like it.

this looks very nice and clean, loving the wheels too.
you could have used 2 reargearboxes and made it 4wd
dont know about the steering though.
