Turning my Batman Returns: Power Wheels Batmobile into an R/C

[agliarept]

8 months in the making, my Buddy L Power Drivers RC conversion is complete!

Taken me a long time to iterate on how to get the canopy to slide but once I did, the care started to finally come together. It still needs paint, upgraded redesigned jet exhaust effect, but for now i'm very happy with this build.

Almost 5ft long RC with working canopy, lights, smoke, and sound fx.

I’ll tweak it next year, but for now, I’m driving this like a bat out of hell!

God, this is SO COOL! I hope that it gets featured on Tested when it's finished!

Thank you!

I wish Tested would somehow see this.

Tested's the single reason that inspired me to even try 3d sculpting and general making. If it wasn't for Norm and Adams's reviews on tools and making, I wouldn't have the courage/interest to take something like this on.

To save some work: you might consider locating an AMT Batmobile Shield kit that was made for the 1/25 scale model. It was a Blueprinter add-on kit.
