[ITELADZ]

What did you use for a compressor? 

[CGras]

@ITELADZ

I used a pump from an electric blood pressure measuring device.

Don´t know how they´re called exactly. :-)

[ITELADZ]

@CGras Do you have any pictures underneath the bodyshell? :)

[jevries]

@CGras I got that same little pump, works like a charm especially in combination with an air tank. I used the blatter that came with the device. Good job, I like it!

Great, where you can get such a body or where you can order them. Thanks and best regards from Austria

[enginemiester]

what did u use for air bags?

[CGras]

@enginemiester

I didn´t use airbags. I used pneumatic cylinders from Lego.

THATS SWEET

Is that a Maisto rc toy? If i'ts the vw maisto toy is exactly a 1:10 scale. A perfect 1:10 scale. i have measured it and confronted with a blueprint of a 1:1 vw real bus and all the measures match perfectly!

[GavinTimleck]

Is the scale correct? I have a 1:10 chasis and It seems much bigger

[CGras]

@GavinTimleck The bus is more like 1:12 scale.

I put it onto an M-chassis with a longer wheelbase.

[GavinTimleck]

is this just a hardshell on a custom setup, or did you mod the stock chasis? I got the same bus sittin around and Im not sure what to do with it. Possibly a pick up?

[CGras]

@GavinTimleck

I put the body onto a modified Tamiya chassis. The stock chassis is useless in my opinion.

How Cool !!

[cyrus96744]

where did you buy that body?

[outatime100]

love it realy cool

[lynchanator11]

very nice. i am building a 1/4 scale custom truggy with a goped racing engine and trying to take it to the max one of a kind rc car and was thinking about rigging paintball regs and qev's. do you know how much pressure and travel they can with stand, and maybe if possible send me a pic of your setup would be highly appreciated!

[CGras]

i don't know exactly how much pressure and weight they can take. But I dont thinks that they can withstand that much because they only have plastic housings. The travel maxes out at about 40mm.

Unfortunately I don't havea pic of the chassis and I've taken the bus apart again because I needed the chassis for another build which doesn't use pneumatics anymore. ;-)

[lynchanator11]

what kind of neumatics are you using? and how did you create the bags?

[CGras]

I used Lego pneumatics. I installed the 4 cylinders intead of the standard shocks and use a small airpump to create the pressure.
