Nice truck Andy!

Sehr Schon!

I think that the wheeliebar uses a few FG or Conrad parts.

Supertruck!

What cells are you using? Hopf or BK, because of the plugs, i would say BK?

One tip; Keep an eye on these pugs, Schulze has got a hang for telling people this >>> LOOSE CONTACT!!!!!!! you need to replace the plugs now and then. Those BK plugs can eat dust, due to their open design, especially the way you are using them. (open air system.. ;) )

Your truck looks AWESOME!!! really nice! (i like it with the body of, i love a nude truck.. )

Hi,

Yes the Batteries and the plugs are from BK, I was at Schulzes Office to show them my setup
(Schulze is located about 20 Minutes away from my Hometown) and they see no problem at all,
just recommended me an additional set of Capacitors, which I will build in at the weekend.

Thanks a lot for the reviews, I take it serious and decided to make some changes, but I like
that alloy stuff a lot so I decided to keep it with some changes. I found a very easy solution
for the bumper and the body post problem (even with the integy alloy parts) …
Pics soon…

Here are some Pics from the first testrun... This thing is awesome... The Performance is unbelievable

Everything went fine the Pletti, the Schulze and the Batteries are not even hot (after 2 complete Battery Packs).

The wheelie bar works although perfect and survived some heavy somersaults.

No broken Parts at all...

The only thing is I have to remove the first gear from the tranny and the shifting servo... The first gear is really useless.

VERY nice truck...those rims look great, but i'm sure they cost a lot....is the gmaxx chassis polished?......i have the first generation gmaxx chassis and it's more of a brushed finish.....and please don't forget to supply us with the part #'s so we can make the wheelie bar..thanks

Thats one sweet ride bro....... one of the nicest trucks Ive seen....

T2693 04.05.2005 09:34 PM

Very nice

Did you paint the body yourself or did your order it that way?

And yes a parts list would be nice.

Nicely done!

I'm interested in the wheelie bar as well thanks.

I have an aluminum maxx also but only got a few pretty pictures before I got the truck all Dirty. Now my little stuff is breaking.

I really like the hummer body on your truck because the stance is perfect and makes the truck still look like an rc.

Rcbros 04.09.2005 01:27 AM

O.k. I've been trying to make a wheelie bar all night. I'm getting tired maybe if I go to sleep i'll wake up with an idea.

Sylvester 04.09.2005 09:03 AM

Good luck, i hope somday maybe George will come out with a production wheelie bar, that would be sweet.

Rcbros 04.09.2005 12:29 PM

Well. I kinda Got it finished. I'm just working on mounting it correctly. It seems to work well. Just not very sturdy.

Wheelie Bar
 
Since I am going to change my whole screws in stainless steel torx at the next weekend,
I have to disassemble the wheelie bar as well. I will post the pics from the parts.

Yes, I painted the Body by myself, this was very easy. Just print the desired design on a stickfoil
(use for example protective foil that is used to wrap books).

First Step: Print the sheet twice. Cut the Flames on the outside of the black line, stick them
on the body and paint the Body in the desired color (my Body is Gun Metal Grey)

Second Step: Remove the Flame-Foil from the Body. Cut the Flames on the inside of the
Black line and stick the Flames again in the Body, now you can paint the outlines in the desired color.

Remove the Flame-Foil and paint the Flammes in the desired color.

Does the grill come painted or are those decals?

andy 04.12.2005 03:22 AM

Grill
 
I painted the grill with chrome spray, the lights, flashers etc are decals.

Rcbros 04.15.2005 07:15 PM

andy check your pms

andy 04.16.2005 03:13 PM

Wheelie bar sucks
 
I hate to say that, but my wheelie bar construction sucks...

After some heay wheelies and some heavier accidents... check the pics...

At least no other things are broken....
