RC BSG Landram project
I am thinking of converting my spare spygear ATV 360 into a landram. It would be radio controlled and have a cam behind the drivers windshield. Using the headset you would see what the driver would see if you were in his seat.
ATV 360
Most likely I will do the cargo version, I can always add the turret later.

Re: LandRam
What size would it be, and what would a "ball park" cost be?

just a paper mockup..
COST: well if I factor in the going rate for the ATV-360, my labor and parts. probably be in the neighborhood of $200-$300, won't be sure until the project is done.
check out ebay for ATV-360, they range from $100-$250

Re: RC BSG Landram project
I have made a bit of progress on the ram project. Minor setbacks of weather (its been in the 20's here) and family. So here I will show what progress has been made. The chassis has been set on hold until weather temp comes up to at least 40. I still have many details to add to the body but the overall shape is done. Many thanks to Revell-Fan of Zealot hobby forum for the templates, extra pics and the ID plate.

Re: RC BSG Landram project
OK, CK, The ram body build is slowing down and the weather is getting better. SO I expect my chassis will be driving by friday.
