I am saving for a MMM :lol:
but until then I use brushed motors :whistle:

New photos later :na:

I made a 775 motor mount that centres the motor and I got Mod1 15-16-17T pinions and 49-52-54T spur gears
And I ordered new harder shock springs :intello:

That's cool! Looks like a puller truck....keep up the good work!

SnoopMaxx 04.25.2009 05:22 AM

Thankīs
The body is from my puller truck
but this one will have a custom Foff tube body :lol:
I just could not resist :whistle:

I had to see what it looked like with that body on :party:

JERRY2KONE 04.25.2009 06:08 AM

Strange
 
That is one strange looking Maxx. So how are you making your own driveshafts? And what body is that? I have never seen an R?C 1/10 scale that long before.

SnoopMaxx 04.25.2009 07:22 AM

I donīt think itīs 10th scale more like 1/8 scale :lol:

I get my inspiration from full size Icelandic Formula Off-Road and Finish R/C Foff Racing

Take a look at these photos and videos

Son of a biznatch, thats what I've wanted to build for my whole R/C life- those Icelandic trucks are awesome, always loved the mentalist attitude and driving.

As it is, I'd like to make a cage like that for my Gmaxx chassis, prefer it to a shell really.

Assume work SnoopMaxx, do you have any pics of the new transmission/motor mount, its obscured in those pics?

SnoopMaxx 04.26.2009 05:40 PM

Neil Thaīt not my Foff :lol:
Itīs just to illustrate where I get my inspiration from :whistle:

Here is the new motor mount I made
:na::na::na:

From what I can see they use RCM mounts

And my new Mount for the 775 motor

I just figured out what to do with whats left of a 3mm sheet of 6061 I have left lying around... :mdr:

Clever motor mounts- I've seen stock 3906 motor mounts doubled up to flip the motor around before, but thats only about the second I've seen that centers the motor in the chassis.

I wonder if FoFF cold take off in the states much like crawling did, would make for a much more exciting offroad scene (crawling and racing combined)...

SnoopMaxx 04.28.2009 10:31 AM


The motor mount are designed after the 4:1 reduction gears I made for my Clod Buster
and my Tamiya 3 Speed in 1987-88ish
Itīs just a little bigger :yes:

I know that there are many 2.2 Foff builds on RCCrawler
(some of them are based on my 2.2 rig)

It would be cool to see more Foff builds in The UK and US
:party::party:

Update on the Tranny modification to mount 3905 steel idler gears in the 3906 tranny
2nd gear Idler is grinded down to 11mm
http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z...HPIM2609-1.jpg

1st gear idler is 13mm wide, total with on bracket is 38.4mm
http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z...e/HPIM2610.jpg

Idler shaft bracket is filed down to 17mm so the idler gears can spin freely
