Porsche 908-3 build 2 - hybrid chassis
Posted: Sat Dec 22, 2018 6:19 pmGot this body in rough shape with a missing rear winglet so just made it wingless.
Getting comfortable making hybrid chassis now, so gathered parts for a build.
- Fly Porsche 908-3 front wheel assembly
- Slot It 15 x 8 rims with 917 resin inserts/home made urethane tires
- Scale Auto drivetrain assembly from BMW Z4 (motor pod, motor, axle, gears)
- Chassis: .055 and .032 piano wire, .064 and .032 brass strip
- Sloting Plus universal guide
Put them together and voila!
Mounted the body with single posts, front and rear.
Sits just right for me.
Runs well but will get a better chance to test on Luf's Big Targa after the holidays.
Thanks to chrisguyw for the ideas and things to watch out for.
