Not sure if all the 1.5 tires are shorter in height. Some 1.5 tires are almost as tall as 1.9 tires, but the rim they mount to is smaller. Maybe you could stretch some shorter overall height 1.5s over the 1.9 rims and get a little better looking combo?

Looks great Freddy! How about you trim the tires? Maybe cut the outer section of tire off, that would make it look more scale. It will also fix your turning problem. Can't wait for an update!

Well threw in the towel on this be'in the mini of my 1:1. Gunna round up a new set of parts & go for it again.(later)
Guess I'll just make this one the snow fighter. W/the parts I have now will never get it the way I want it to look.
So....Onward! Started platin the frame so I can stuff it full of goodies.


Then the servos.


Pump & linkages.

The chassis looks uneven, and the truck looks squished. Besides that it looks awesome Freddy!
