The motor I use is from a broken micro-servo.

(it means: "There's missing a piece"
The other parts are regular R/C-parts, just small ones - thats why I can not post any ciruitry, sorry. I just bought these parts because i wanted to build a TTTT.
The ESC is from "mikroantriebe.de", the reciever is a modified "XP-8" by "Graupner". The steering-servo I use is called "Dymond 5.4".
The chassis was a LXX-clone where I first made room for the reciever:

The gear is made ftom the original servo gear and the LXX gear glued together. The next step was to build the steering. I used the original steering and I cut the thing that holds the magnet. Then I glued the rest of the servo-arm onto it. The servo-arm was also cut and a nail glued into it. The little springs are slot-car parts. Those were the softest I could find and they should prevent the wheels from falling off.

Then I tried how the parts fit:

The cell is 135 mAh-Lithium-Polymer.
Finally I shortend the cables a bit an soldered everything together. Would the Body fit?

The Beetle I use right now was allready painted, I just added some details.

The body is perfect for the "huge" servo. Lights should be added. The rims were made by a board member of "bit-racer.de"

I like your board and I read (and learn) a lot, but I don't understand everything. Thats also why I never posted before.
