Giulia’s sidecar (aka ‘ESC-seat’)

Hello everyone,

Well the truth is that we are all very disappointed with this weather. It’s been … for lack of a better word…. disappointing indeed !

We nonetheless took the opportunity to do some work in our TeamVebra’s Studios; this idea came from looking at other “sportier RC cars” – such as the Tamiya TA05 or TA06 – those chassis tend to be larger and “flat”. The space to lay the equipment is wider and lower which in turn should lower the overall centre of gravity.

Example:      <– Low down chassis basin.

Whereas our beloved M-03 doesn’t exactly have tons of space to set equipment on it, and more importantly, the little space available is pretty high up behind the Servo. We feared that the heavyish ESC might be playing havoc on Giulia’s centre of gravity so… after much thinking (approx 2,3 minutes) We found a spare piece of plastic. (Couldn’t tell you exactly what it is, it seems to be some kind of hardened vinyl, shiny on one side only and very stiff for how narrow it is.) We wanted a “shelf” to put the ESC on …

This is what came out, as soon as it stops raining we shall try it at the LMCC track and let you know what it does!

Thanks for reading us and stay tuned for more TeamVebra info very soon!
