Mojave Mojave 6s Body Lexan windows

[RC_Noob]

Anyone know if anyone makes some? Instead of the open window design with the driver modules thing I just want regular closed windows. I see some rc4 lexan windows but i think thats a difference rc. Or anyone know how to make some?

Just buy Lexan sheet and cut and make your own, 0.75mm is plenty thick enough for windows as it will cut with normal kitchen scissors..
It's hard to see, but mine has windows in the sides and they are held in place with velcro, you could use hot glue to stick them in..

Oh derp, I didn't think of that lol. Thanks for that!

Edit: Hmm where did you buy that from amazon? So many plastics to choose, from. Which exact sheet did you buy?

why didn't you make a windshield ? Now the air goes in at the front, but can't come out at the side. And you have smaller openings at the back. This way you increase the air resistance.

I used a polycarbonate sheet with 0.75mm thickness. Strong, but still flexible and easy to cut with scissors.
I made a front windshield for the Mojave and this helps a lot in keeping the front down more.
Just get the cage out, measure the size of the windshield, cut it, and attach it with four small tie-wraps (only four small holes near the corners needed).

Got mine from eBay, just search Lexan or polycarbonate sheet 0.75mm, try to get 9030 Lexan like this...

Looks nice. Good cuts!
How did you cut the original lexan window out? From the marks, it look like you used some kind of a reciprocating saw to do that. Or did you file it after?

I didn’t cut the body, it comes with the windows already cut out.. tbh it looks like they cut them out with a blunt bread knife.

Oh, interesting. It is pretty hard to cut windows out that straight. With the flex of the body, automation is usually out of the question so it is usually done by hand.
