Yes...again a new Gecko.

This time we will take it seriously.
We want to go faster, and run it for a longer time.
So then you need:
Brushless motor and Lypo battery's.

First if placed the steering arm holder.

Then if measure where the hole must come for the steering arm.

Next step was drill the breach, after that i gluwed the rubber bellow.

Made a servo mounth with a shrink socket.

Maked shure the servo is in optimal place.

Before gluwing it in with super gluw.
So if need it can come out easly.

Afterwards I have brill the gabe for water pick-up.

Made a water pick-up from a messing tube.

Gluwed this also in with super gluw.

Here a view from the inside of how it fits in.

Than the motor. Made a water cooling socket for it.

And build the motor in, and connecting the water cool tube.

Fitted in the speed controller.

And here you see a compleet build MHZ Gecko.

First in action on camp.

What a power!!!.

Almost to hard to handle.
Even with the choped propellor, it runs like crazy.

So time to change the setup.

Put the battery to the other side.

Replaced the drive for a new one with M2.

So now i can put 26mm props on it.

It runs beter.

Having more control over it.

Only probleme is that there stil comes water in it, but i dont know where it comes from.
Also it will not turn when it is on its back.
So back to the drawing board.


When the next changes are there, i will let you know.
