Do you have any samples of his work. I think a 44 tooth might fit just right.
|
Samples, no- just PM him for details really, far quicker and easier than rooting around this place for burried threads and such. What you're after is one of these basically:
http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10233 There are a few variations in shape depending on who makes it (Serum has an older version in a G2r revo, but the basic design in the same). |
Mike is also starting on his in the next couple of weeks - YAY!

Yes, that exactly what I want I guess I will wait till mike gets them made. Now that I have a g2 chassis I think the build will go alot easier. I just cant decide which bulkhead setup I want to use. I was thinking about using a mono block with the g2 chassi and vbs with 8 spidersand racerx with setbacks or ga's with sweestrobes and rpm truetraks I cant decide and I will have too pull some peices off my nitro trucks.:gasp:

Sounds pretty good.

Only if you use the G1 rear end or cut the G2 rear end. I have a G1 rear end with mono. The driveshaft you'll need is 110mm. You can buy the titanium 110mm shafts from UE. |
Whats the diffrence beteween the two. I thought it was only the lower chassis plate was different. I also thought the g3 cassis had the different upper plate that required you to use the front flattened out skid in the rear which wouldnt work with a mono. Question is, should I use a mono block or buy a g3 upper plate and use a front skid which would be cheaper stronger and better over all to lengthen the wheel base a little. Lets see mono is $65 upper plate is ~ $25 and a rear aluminum skid is $19 and a used titanium one is $25 so ~ $50 compared to about $90 for mono with ti skid. Mono would be stronger for sure and I could use any normal ti skid. Descisions decisions.LOL

All things concidered, the G2 chassis (when fitted with the extended rear upper plate and extended rear lower skid) is the same length as the regular G2 chassis fitted with a monoblock- theres only like 1/8" difference. My advice would be to just pickup the G3 rear upper plate and rear skid, no need to mess around modding parts or hunting for extended skids. I've never had any durability issues, and I've flipped my truck more times than I care to remember..

Does rc monster sell it in kit form? Or do I have to get that from the gorilla website. I was thinking about using my 3mm thick ga skids and for that I would have too run a monoblock. I wonder if a hardcore rear titanum skid would work I really dont like aluminum skids.

Sell what in kit form exactly?
You can buy the parts you need from gorillamaxx themselves as spares, just look in their spares section under the G3 chassis- you will need the skid and rear upper plate. RCM doesnt sell the spare parts, just the whole chassis. I honestly wouldnt worry about needing a Ti skid on the rear, though a trimmed down item would fit over the top of the gorillamaxx ones nicely (just use the 4 holes that attach it to the underside of the bulks, and trim off the rest if you use a normal length skid). The aluminium skids of the gmaxx chassis are very short, not like a normal skid that is inclined to bend if you hit something- take a look at the photos of my truck to get a better idea of what you're dealing with: http://www.robotwars.00server.com/gmaxx.html |
I have been studying your truck among others very closely these past few days. BTW nice build. What I need to know is what length is the rear drive shaft pin to pin. Lito say 110mm but I have seen others say different. If it is 110mm I could get titanium ones from ue.
|
River, my gmaxx with mono uses a 110mm rear dogbone. I used to have a 108mm dogbone but have to use 2 o-ring on each cup to remove the fore and aft play. I measured the distance and bought the 110m titanium dogbone from UE and it fits like a glove. No o-rings were needed on the cups.
Anyway, can you post a pic of your chassis? |
Hey lito what length is the front shaft? . That is awesome I can use a titanium shaft with the mono. I wonder if there is a difference of shaft length with the g-maxx chassi extension Neil said 1/8" in length between the 2. I bought it from billy trucks he gave me a pretty good deal . A similer one sold for over $200 a couple of hours before. I dont know how to tell if it is a g2 or g3 I guess the g3's are longer and the g1 lower plate is flat. Heres a link the the auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=160310588005

I saw a gentlemen about 3 weeks ago that was running a MMM with twin Velineon motors hooked to it on a 3905 Emaxx. He had fried both of his VXL-3 controllers and had the motors laying around with a MMM to use. The truck ran awesome on 3S. So I would have to say.....yes it can be done. Is it the most efficient way....probably not.
