My dads old co-worker had it and thought that I could refurbish it. Its about the size of a small file cabinet. We'll see how it goes.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/463733599586892569-1159126458550436257?l=rapidmustang.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RapidMustanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02039982575562606031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463733599586892569.post-85616312839396724012009-09-06T21:26:00.004-06:002009-09-06T21:41:56.712-06:00I just built this today. I used an RC car servo, receiver, and control kit. The throttle is the only thing I can control right now. This particular 4-wheeler has electronic shifting, it should be easy to find the wires that go to the shift buttons, then wire in an RC relay circuit. This is going to be a great project! <br /><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-68168a4fcdab74f0" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v20.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D68168a4fcdab74f0%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331181928%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D875ED4D91EBA7F59AC9181DE60A22F887566C62.27EE963DA53BAE4A25937F25D679BCC5D0F9B771%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D68168a4fcdab74f0%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D1SNetPRDmq5ZLsqcMhUf-8mzJvw&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v20.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D68168a4fcdab74f0%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331181928%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D875ED4D91EBA7F59AC9181DE60A22F887566C62.27EE963DA53BAE4A25937F25D679BCC5D0F9B771%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D68168a4fcdab74f0%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D1SNetPRDmq5ZLsqcMhUf-8mzJvw&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/463733599586892569-8561631283939672401?l=rapidmustang.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RapidMustanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02039982575562606031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463733599586892569.post-79426226870275121932009-09-03T11:19:00.005-06:002009-09-03T11:45:48.311-06:00Alright, this is the first post on my revamped blog (formerly Rapid Mustang).
