Axialfest entry!!

Ok guys so have been wheelin and dealing alot to get the stuff i need for axialfest in 3 1/3 month! Now im getting close to being done!! this is what i got done so far!!

 

just got the brushless system for it!! Its got scx10 axles and an emaxx 2 speed trans in it along with erevo drive shafts!! Not its time to work on the bumpers!! gotta get them done so i can mount the winch!!

 

Very nice did you do the chassis yourself

 

Very nice build. I like the chassis also.

 

no i had to admit dafeat the first attempt at the chassis and had Erin (Highlandcrawler) make the chassis for me! I just told him to do something different than an scx10 chassis and i told him to just do something know one else has had or seen before! Tell you what im glad i told him that because i really love this thing and im sure theres ganna be alot of head turning at axialfest at me this year!! Erin did a DAMN GOOD JOB on this thing!!!

 

Highlandcrawler's work is really nice. About a year or so ago he was selling some of his rigs and I'm still kicking myself that I didn't have the cash at the time.

 

yeah im really happy with the way this thing came out!

 

I was looking at your brushless motor and ESC combo and was wondering who "Cheetah" was when I noticed the website SkyRC.com. They have some interesting stuff. I found their AA/AAA Bluetooth battery charger interesting:

Did you buy your Brushless motor and ESC directly from them, of from a dealer?

 

I bought it from a dealer! I bought that one and a speed passion motorr esc combo from rcmart.com!! payed almost 130 for both with shipping!!
an amazing deal! Ive had a cheatah non sensored system in a different rc it was a 4700kv and damn that thing was fast as hell and never had any issues with it so i thought way not do it again!!

 

I found bought these combo's from http://www.rcmart.com/ i got both setups for $140 shipped!! which is a smoking deal and the sensored system if you add 10* of timing you get a turbo mode if you hold full throttle for more than 5 seconds!! I will post a video if i can later on it!!

 

Any news on this build?

 

sorry ive been a little busy with making the new front bumper and getting a little hickup out of the electronics but i have it all running now but gotta paint the body so i will be ready by sunday!! But all i have to say about that cheetah system is HOLY HELL!!!!

 

Sounds like you like that power system. Is it torque or fast?

 

The brushless system i got for it i was taking a chance but it has tons of low end torque and when i shift into second i have all the wheel speed i could ever want it will balloon the tires in second gear!! Im changing alot of stuff around because i found some issues with the truck i need to address!! Im getting to much body rub so i changed out to wraith axles also im really top heavy so i got some scx10 stock shocks and now i gotta get some new links made because the old ones are rubbing on drive shafts!!

 

Sounds like you're going to have a rock racer.

 

lol it will still crawl very well it has very good low end thanks to a 2 speed tranny!

 

Did you get the new axles and links?

 

i will post some more pics here in a few days because i have replaced the axles and links and shocks to lower the stance and make it more stable because i was flexing a little then all it wanted to do was tip over!! so now im almost done with the new look!!

 

Very nice can't wait to see it
