While I was on Vaction from RCnitrotalk.com this is what I bussied myself with.
I've made a flexi chassis, a pan chassis, and now a mini chassis! It fits one big block, (airplane motor in my case), one standard servo and the front differential case and steering links. I can't wait to drive it!

The car is now exactly 5 inches long!

Mini Micro Version 2
-90mm compared to 150mm!
-6 cells, 7.2v
-Mini Pan Chassis
-Vertical Servo
-Big Block
-Even weight distribution
-Lower Center of Gravity
-Still a cute little bugger

I'd like to fix my micro servo to make the car have tad shorter wheelbase and to make better room for the 6 cells

It was awesome, The car dropped and the chassis split in half. I had to spend another couple hours creating another one. It's a tad smaller. All the electronics are on now and I took if for a spin (out) and spun into a wall cracking the new chassis. This car isn't ment for indoors, too fast anyways. It'd be better with a micro servo, stock motor, and 4 cells. I Now have access to much better materials so it won't crack if I decide to make it again.

-Extended Micro

I got bored after making my mini micro three times that I man an Extended micro also! Can you guess how long it is from this angle? It's longer then the standard 150mm.

Try and guess....
























Just to let you know, the RS4 3 has a wheel base of 250mm, same as my limo micro.

Now with some 1/10 touring wheels in the back, a wing, and lower gearing and I'll have my own micro dragster.

The chassis doesn't drag on the ground at all. I had to make the upper deck half an inch longer then normal to make the belly of the car stop sagging. Everything works great though and it looks really weird sliding around the driveway.
 
Hey i was wondering if you could upload your pics somewhere else. I can't see them. I dont know if it is the bandwith issue or somethingh else.

Update....
