Right it was about time that I built one of these wonderfull crafts so I can reek havoc as well as the rest of you at mayhem bashes.Allright I know I don't need a springer to reek havoc me just being there is enough!!!
Right Me being lazy have bought a hull from our Scottish connection Norry and good it is as well,now Me being Me decided it had to be different and yes you guessed it more powerfull than the rest,well it would not be one of mine without power would it.So I decided after seeing sense ,well I was going initially going to put a MFA 850 in one but saw sense,just about!,so in is going a Scothell drive that I just had lying around mated to a Graupener speed 600. This unit I do believe is not the Graupener but a Marx unit and I must admit is quite powerfull time will tell.
Work so far has involved fitting of the drive unit and the servo for steering it,see pictures more to follow as build goes along.Have decided for ease of servicing etc that the whole deck will be removable by screws along the top of the deck with access to the batts via the superstructure with a seal around the deck flange picture to follow on that.
