Started something new today ;D
This is my Self-designed, DIY and College Patented Project, Three Wheeled Prop Car.

Made a T shape of strip of wood.
Some standard 40 size glow wheels that i had laying around.
5mm steel rod as struts.
2826 1650kv motor, on a permax 400 can tapped to the frame, supported by zip ties. 8x6 sf prop.
30A mystery ESC zip tied to the frame and a corona reciever.

Have to install a tail wheel and it will be ready fr maiden :thumbsup:

The tail wheel will be connected to a big servo.

Pardon my knowledge but shudn't it be the front wheels that should be steered to avoid wheel skid?

I like tail dragger planes, spent a large part of yesterdays flying session driving my Mig around the field. It was lots of fun and good laughs :) Thats why i decided to build this trike for the coming weekend. We'll see if it skids, I'm thinking skidding trike should be more fun ;D Otherwise I can swap the motor wires and it becomes a pusher. Tail wheel becomes front steering wheel :thumbsup:

ps: I hope you understand that this not a serious project; just something to fool around  with :P

Thank you Roopesh  :)
@aviator definitely looks like a mosquito ;D
@swizera Mantids sounds cool, I'm gonna write this on the coro canopy i'm making for this.

BTW after seeing it coming towards me, it reminded me of something i saw in one of the transformers movie  :headscratch:
