Ponsse Elephant 1:25 conversion

[Azonic]

Started this little conversion the other day, im concentrating on making it steer and go back and forward, maybe i will try to make the boom, stick and grapple work later on.

Steering is with a micro servo, might have to find a little stronger one later.

Wheels will be turned by micro 6mm geared motors, 1 on each wheel.

Still waiting on motors and some more things, should have it running late next week i hope!

Here is what i have done so far...

Wow, that's very cool. The motors must be tiny! Looks like you are off to a good start. Quite a bit of room under the hood, I see. That will come in handy!

Yes the motors are very small, 6mm in diameter, and around 17mm long!

The electronics will fit pretty much perfect in there i hope!
