Proving Grounds Jet Racer
I didn’t put much time into how it looks only because i spent a ridiculous amount of time on chassis tuning and strength. It’s more meant to extend your jumps, but the landing have to be soft and slow like landing a real plane. Trust me when i say that landing this correctly is extremely satisfying especially watching the completely overdone rear suspension doing its job. For the most part, the frame is extremely rigid and helps the car handle very VERY well for its weight and size. The front suspension is independent and has 2 control arms per wheel as well as a very complex steering system that i spent days de-bugging. Middle suspension is also independant with double control arms and is very strong. The rear suspension is a type of solid axle that can take most hard landings within reason. If you pitch too far back while airborne, it will start doing backflips and become uncontrollable. It is very heavy at over 20k pounds with 6 motors and a crap load of fuel. Lmk what you guys think as this is my first build with fully mechanical suspension and steering.
