I have been working on a radio controlled hot rod for the past 2 weeks for my metals class. The assignment was to create a mechanical object based on "migration." I've got roughly 65 hours into this thing so far, and am expecting to put in around 50 more to complete it (Update- its going to be longer, im thinking 50 hours will get me to rolling chassis with the components mostly mounted). This is 100% custom fabricated except for the mechanical parts I stripped from the donor car (Traxxas T-Max).
to do list:
fit floor pan and install running gear (mount engine, transmission, radio, servos)
decide what springs to use for front suspension
rear suspension and springs
die form body panels and do body work
machine rear axle bearing spacers
set up steering linkage
fabricate and mount gas tank
maybe powdercoating?
