Front Skins

Front skins ready for the top coat

Ali Skins


My Aliminium skins have arrived and as you will see I have made a start on them, I have cut all the panels out and JB welded them together, undercoated them in grey but need to undercoat them in white before the top coat.
I have attached the skins to my frame by making L shaped brackets which are JB welded to the skins and then attached to the frame with 5mm screws.

New Speed Controllers


Had trouble with the first set up, motors were pulling to much voltage on start up and keept blowing the spped controllers up.
Got these new beasts and they work a treat.
