New RC Car..Take a good look

[JohnSheridan]

Tried posting this in the car section (unlike some people who dont try)

But anyways.. I thought you guys might be interested in this car made by an austrian company normally known for their motor dynos... Initial response would be that it may well be similar to a shumacher axis or the old losi streetweapon but no where near it.
The motor is located smack in the middle ok maybe a little towards the rear end but never the less looks real slick..


Here the Link...Enjoy folks!!!

Looks, basically, like a XXX-S made out of carbon fiber sheets. Same basic design, some different details.

I'd drive one...

LMAO...Maybe you need another look it looks nothing like a losi,
If ya personally saw one of this and did a back to back comparison on this car and any other you'd see it otherwise

Actually, I drive 3 different XXX-S cars and looked at every picture on the Robi website. The drivetrain design, with the single serpentine belt and general layout of battery, motor, electronics deck, etc - looks EXACTLY like a Losi, only modified to be built out of carbon fiber sheets and machined aluminum rather than molded graphite.

Granted, some of the suspension is different, with pillow balls and other such differences (the details I mentioned.) But details aside, I can see many parallels to the Losi. I didn't say it was a "copy" - you can draw your own conclusions - but the car is very similar in basic design.

So you can take your "LMAO" and "SIUYA."


That said, it looks like a very nice car.
