The Wild Thumper Project
So some of you might have noticed we posted our latest review last night about Dagu Eletronic's Wild Thumper 6WD. If you haven't seen this bad boy check out this video we posted.
This video doesn't do the Wild Thumper any justice. What we have decided to do is to do an extensive review which will be released slowly to the everyone.
The following is a break down of our plan:
Check back for more updates. If you have ideas please do share.

The following is a break down of our plan:
- Phase 1 - Kit Construction (done!)
- Phase 2 - R/C Rigging (in progress)
- Phase 3 - R/C Demonstration (coming soon)
- Phase 4 - Autonomous Rigging (coming soon)
- Phase 5 - Autonomous Demonstration (coming soon)
- Phase 6 - Extreme Wild Thumping (what can this thing do!)
Check back for more updates. If you have ideas please do share.
