Well it now has stiffer springs which makes it more stable on rough rocks.
and orderd the bits to give it four wheel steering too! I got a fancy new radio sat here waiting for it to arrive!
so watch this space!

Well here is some pics of the 4ws upgrade although will be changing the servo soon, as not matched with front. also im not so good at controlling the steering at mo either as rear steering is on same stick as the throttle so i end up jumping forward or backward while steering
and battery can be changed now

I spent most of today with a soldering iron and have burnt myself twice!
but this is where im at tonight:
furthest away is the amp for siren, and the light control unit and siren sound unit is closest to camera.
Fitting the amp to interior.
the birds nest wiring, light unit will be fixed to roof of the car. will be cable tieing up the cables.
light unit.
both units.
lights fitted and stuck down, double sidded sticky foam pads.
and on the chassis.
Starting to get there, lights are all working but two roof lights are bit dimmer as from different sources
