whoa, Taiyo rear is removable, meaning: CUSTOM T BAR REAR SUPSENSION MOD TIME!!!

since i got my Taiyo, ive been wondering what the heck these 2 skrews on the bottom rear was. The Auldey doesnt have them, and when i took them off, along with the pcb cover, i noticed that the rear is sort of snapped on, well not really it fits in a slot ...and all thats holding it is 2 wires that go to the motor case...you can also remove them motor case along with this btw...

and a custom T bar suspension similar to the Mini Z will be SO FRIGGIN EASY...i mean i have 2 skrew holes already, i just need some plastic to make the t bar, and then i just have to make 2 more skrew holes in the motor case...so simple...maan this is gonna rock....
im also planning on somehow making the rear spring thing that goes over the Tbar in the mini z, not too sure about that yet, but shouldnt be hard at all.

doing this, will help in overall smoothness, since it bumps around horribly, and it has a problem braking when im at full speed...the whole rear shakes like its going to fall apart...well this will probably fix that, and put the power to the floor

now i just need to make a custom front suspension

oks, i made a rear suspension, but it isnt a Tbar suspesnion....i guess i got side tracked while making it and made something totally different that works wonders...
i call it a "V" suspension system
i removed the tabs that hold the rear to the main chassis..and i noticed that when i skrewed the rear back on, it pivoted [sp?] back and forth.....and i was like whoa...
and what i did next helped the most, i took a spring from a cheap mechanical pencil, and stuck it horizontally between the pivoting point, "the V"...and to my amazement, it was awsome....
what was even kooler, is that if i tighten the skrews, i can actually harden/stiffen the suspension...

now the performance is friggin awsome, it actually seems faster...because it puts the power down

btw, i never bolt on the skrews to the rear body posts, since i use 2 skrews onthe front, and one under the roof, the body is stable enough so that it doesnt rattle...
this helps to use the rear suspension that keeps going up and down on bumps...

also it has somewhat of an independent rear, both wheels can somewhat compress about 3mm on each side, or both
