Been working again on a new yacht. Finished up the basic chassis, and thought I'd post a few pics... No name for it yet, but it will be painted red, since I have 4 cans of the stuff.

I decided to go with 20degree rear axles like the fed-5 after reading numerous posts here. The mast step gives me adjustments from 1100mm-1330mm from the center of the mast to the front axle. The main spine is very stiff, as I wanted the suspension to come from the axles, and the long front piece. Even without the seat on it, it feels nice and springy...

Tires are 10" scooter tires. Supposed to last a long time on even the roughest surfaces. They are also too big for the 'rope rule' mini's, but the guys run them in the mini class here in the states.... go figure....Wheels are jr dragster wheels.... Cheers









That's it for now! Gotta figure out the seat, and the steering pedals, which will attach to the tube hanging off the mast step.
