Well I'm on a new build, no more with RC builds I've stepped up to the cromotor v3
But onward.... (also noticed I cant spell aluminum for some reason) :lol:
I've loved the design of the stealth bomber downside I don't have the cash for one.
Now I love the design but it simply doesn't isn't made completely out of aluminum.
So here enters google, TechShop, corel draw, a cold cut saw, and a 72" hunk of 5" aluminum C channel and I have this
Then add a Tig welder, a hunk of 2.5"x.5 wall tubing and metal lathe and you have this.
Now if the tracking is correct I'll have a cromotor tomorrow and the shifter for the Alfine 8 speed hub I'm using as a jack shaft.
So tomorrow will probably be swing arm and jack shaft mounts.....
And a little bit of grilling.
