***Fixed version here https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/L1riJL/Bandit-2-0
This is what the little bugger evolved into after I got bored with it. I reverse engineered the suspension off my RC bandit. Turned out pretty fun and wanted to share with everyone, enjoy!
Up for forward, down for reverse, roll for steering.
(P.S. every time you ask me about beta, a programmer loses its wings. I get paid to draw smiley faces.)

Hi guys
i'm pretty sure it's called hinge rotators, but add some of those and make em vtol for extreme camber
@WeeBabySeamus were is ciril? He should be taking care of you! I can't remember that 'escorts' name
You mean this one?
I'm still not gaining any user points from my build that has 25 upvotes just from today. It is still not showing up on my points page that I gained anything from it. And my user points hasn't changed for the past few hours even though it was getting upvoted. I've posted on the forums, reddit, I message you guys on Facebook and even on your official site. Please respond, I worked hard for that build I feel like it's just nothing if it's not gaining me points.

Hey just putting this out there, I modified this with a steering wheel, and a gun!
This is so much fun!
Awesome
Much better!
@kikasshes Fixed
Cool
Oh my god this looks beautiful and it is so detailed
I'm new to the game and I'm wondering how I can test out my building skills with one of the really popular builders and I want to do a build Contest! :)
@KevinMurphy hoew du git bota
@Kevin Murphy when will iOS get the update so we can use this on iOS too.
Wow looks awsome
ohhhhhh! i love bandits. ive got a 2wd Traxxas slash with a castle creations sidewinder in it, although i forgot what battery is in it, the things a beast. it tore of the tires, flung them across the field, and hit my friends face... he was not amused....
@KevinMurphy I think you have the balance on the rigity of the parts pretty right, I can roll my Humvee with out exploding at around 40 mph... Testing others things now and all feeling good. The only comment, and I could be missing something here, is the suspension of the new wheels, with the actual suspension parts one can change the dampening level, but the in-built wheel suspension seems unchangable? What I have found is when you add a lot of weight to a vehicile then it becomes very bouncy and easy to roll the vehicle, even with keeping the COG as low as possible... again, I may be missing something on the settings...
I love the bandit so much fun. i have a slash 4x4 and will make one of those when can :)
I actually tweaked the the rigidity of the parts to compensate for the vehicles while testing, but with a level that was good enough to drive around and not explode turned airplanes into flying tanks, so we reeled it in a bit. @FullFruntall
Glad you like the update! I'm excited to see all the wonderful creations you will make with the new parts! That was actually always in the back of my mind while making them. @SpiritusRaptor
@KevinMurphy ok thanks!
This is soo much fun now with the new parts! I went down a few mountains by barrel rolling and tumbling without a scratch, I'm driving along in a field and one tiny bump the thing explodes o,0 Still really cool and fun
My favorite new one is "Tell me how to get a pirated version of the beta" @AndrewGarrison
@KevinMurphy - whose face is that on the Sphinx? It wasn't wearing a kilt, so I assume it was not you.
