My little workshop in Berlin/Germany

[rc garage berlin]

I decided to built the Frontwheels by myself. I use the smallest WCM rim half, a 3D-printed Insert, a round Aluminum plate and a foam ring.

I finished the wheelie bar and fixed the parachute at the wormgear. Then I watched many movies about packing the parachute and made the small red flag to secure everything when it is packed. Now I start to work on the new wing for the body...

the petrol tank has arrived...

Michael: The front wheels, wheelie bar, parachute, and petrol tank all look great. The entire project is amazing! Keep the body just as it is, never ever change it.

I promise you that I will keep the body in this beautiful used look. I'm just adding the wing that has been lost over the years and there will soon be a hole for the scoop ...

It is always good to make a paper model first to see the size and position...

Exhausts ready to get painted in black...

Sweet!!!

Finding the right position for the scoop is not that easy if you don't have the exact dimensions of the body ...

I'm a big believer in paper templates and 4mm thick artist's foam board. I use these materials to test concepts / ideas for my models.

Now it is time for the wing. I found an old picture from 2006 when only one part of the wing was left. I dont like the design so I will change it a little...
