YZ-10 Dark Dog : new clothes for 2015

[Mr. ED]

skip to the 2nd page for the update !

It won't fit the original under-tray, but hey . it's cheap and readily available. Plus I really love the look of it: got a bit of starwars, batman and spidermans goblin all mixed into one mean lean machine.

The only visual bummer is the bulge for the moter, the Yz-10 moter sits further aft and doesn't extend so far out.
but for me it serves perfect: just aligns with the wires of the stick pack on the hot dog chassis.
Picture time:

Hope it isn't too much?

[Asso_man!]

Very nice, but you forgot to let us know where the body comes from Be careful Ed, it looks like a shelf-queen to me

[Mr. ED]

Tamiya baldre ; same chassis as the durga

[Synergy]

I like it, do you have a wing in mind

[fakiee]

What driveshafts, wheel hubs and wheels are you using on the YZ10?

[Mr. ED]

I still have a couple unpainted wings, so rather than picking up the full aftermarket pack, I just took the spare body: without wing and decal set. Maybe sand viper wing or plazma edge.

The car isn't finished yet under the shell, but should be soon , I'll be putting a thread with all the details then.sofar it has parts of 4 different brands: less than usual no my builds

holy rear camber!!! body looks good though

[Mr. ED]

holy rear camber!!!

hehe, car's not ready yet: longer top links for the rear are just one of the items on the list still.

DURGA DURGA!

[Mr. ED]

Tamiya baldre ; same chassis as the durga

yeah, tamiya is on a strike with its naming: badre is pronounced 'balder', or more bald than bald

Did you not like the Durga body? I only ask as it appears not to have the additional motor bulge. Do you think they would fit on standard chassied Works 91?

[Mr. ED]

Nah, don't like the Durga. On the pics at tamiya

it looks like you're right.
But I'm using a stick pack and the bulge is perfect to get the accu wires out. without the bulge they'd pushh the body off-center.

[Mr. ED]

Here's a couple pics of what's hiding under the shell.
Anyone want to take a guess on the origin of the non YR-4 parts?

Kyosho front knuckles, hubs and shocks and an Associated slipper.....?
