I don't think anyone has turned out a masterpiece on the first go so post some pics! Everyone has different skillsets and tools available to do their builds so you should never feel like you're going to be made fun of! There is a great group of guys and gals here that are full of support and great advise so make yourself at home!

best way , sign up to an image hosting site like Photobucket ,image shak or the like , they're "free". up load your photo/s . then post the forum image code , on photobucket , it should be the last code on a pop up if you drag your curser over the pic . copy/paste that code/link in your reply .

edit: ahh Joe and Rob beat me

An unusual design that I have never seen before, is this of your own creation or is there a 1:1 IRL? ...it makes me think this is an underground hauler with it's low profile.

You may want to incorporate some brass bushings within your pivot points for reduced wear & easier movement... like oilite bushings in the Tamiya kits would work great.

What's the reduction on your chosen axles? You may need to add a planetary reduction to the motor to propel those massive tires. I'm sure you're aware of the choices offered by RC4WD.

A great start on what I'm sure will turn out to be a mighty hauler.
