Hi guys ,

Project 3 is 50% in my mind , 30% made , 20% talking about.

The idea :

- 1/3,5 scale

- on and off road : special suspension to give 7 cm travel for off road use and 4 cm for on (adjustment in 2 min ).Association (hydraulic )
between front and rear suspension ,which you can lock for on road use ( adj in 5sec ).7cm or 4 cm distance from
the ground.
The association of front and rear suspension gives , among other things, differently amortization so you can drive on and off .

- 4 wheel drive or 2 wheel drive ( front or rear drive )

- Light weight tubular chassis ( about 2 kg with arms ) .Tubular or acetal ( type of industry plastic ) arms , full adjustment , camber caster ,toe in - out.

- 2 disk brakes ( like Lotus7 )

- 3 - 7 hp engine.

- about 13 kg

- on and off road wheels ,( 4 + 4)

- with the .... known quality of parts.




What do you think about it ?
 
Use on and off road?
That's what Volvo say about the XC90 !!:clown:
Take care. Choose well.
As the others say; if it's similar to your others, it'll be great!!
How about a scale Bowler? :clown::clown:
That MUST have a V8 in it!!

Maybe it will be as project 4.
Now I think about project 3 and work with Lotus7.

There are a lot of them (projects ) in my mind but and I think that all these
can accomplish in a professional action.
A new company for large scale rc cars ,only ? for crazy customers .

I would like something like this but I don't know if it is feasibility.
 
Vass (if I may call you that) I would certainly be interested if I won the lottery, but will have to stick to my relative humble offerings, for now.
Good luck and I'm sure there will be some takers.
Remember guys, use the PM section ...
Very best of luck.
Great work and long may it get better still - still want to see that Bowler - and hear it with a V8 !!!

Alan , I think that it is not necessary to win the lottery , for a rc car like this.
It is not a rc BENTLEY . It is only qualitative rc for big boys ( not reach ) who like not only playing ( with a low-budget and for a short time ) but messing about , have agood time for many years.
I am not a reach man but I like to take a quality product , built it step by step and keep it in my living room .

There isn't any rc company of my own .It is only a think( and what I would like ) about rc projects.
I hope to give an explanation about rc projects with my moderately English.

Vass ( for you , only )

Thanks and no offence.
Perhaps offer options not currently available, that you as an engineer see are required?
Get a couple of 'show cars' out and see if there's any 'serious' interest, not just from enthusiasts like me.
Good luck.
Alan.
