The attached images were created in Autodesk's 3D Studio Max again -
using the Quicksilver Render Engine on it's standard "Tech" setting.
This model was EXTREMELY popular around the RC track around the mid to late 90's and was often seen sporting 6 or 7-cell ExTech packs for juice.
From a 3D perspective the model was fairly simple to create. Even though being a complex mecanical engineering work in itself, alost all work could be done in simple primatives or spline shapes. Those in the know will reconize the Novak shape speed-control on the rear pillar.
