wow! the alunimum huts my eyes soo shiny!
I compliment you on the truck great work to HNC and Daf!:)

What LVC are you using Daf? And what esc?

The LVC is the LiSafer, have to look up the brand, though.
And the ESC is a 120amp Micro from BK. Was pricy, but feels very very good. I hope the 120 amp version will do. But judging from the temps so far, I think its good.

I'm running the 9920 on 6s so hopefully I can keep the temps under control.
I just got my LiSaver today. I was concerned that it may not work with the 9920. I tested it and it works fine. Tiny little guy, I like it.

I hope my truck doesnt end up needing a 2p setup like you guys; 8s2p would be a lot of weight, $, and additional drivetrain stress. Maybe my higher voltage will lower the amp draw enough, I hope the 2240/10 is not too amp thirsty

The "2p" is misleading. It depends one the cells thatyou are using, and how capable these cells are. For example, if you are using 3000mah cells rated at 15C, it may be worthwhile to use a 2P configuration. Any cell size smaller than 3000mah or a cell that can't handle 45amps continuous should be used in a parallel configuration for our purposes. If you use a larger cell, then it is your choice if you want to parallel the cells up.

74 amps continous should be ok then, thats over 2000 watts continous, 131 amps burst = over 3500 watts; these should do until the a123 m1 Lithium Ions are avalable then I can save a pound and have more avalable amps :027:

anything new with this truck daf?

Thank you for asking, Stampy!
Yes, lots of news on this, actually. It's my standard truck now. My weapon of choice when I go out RCing, and I take the first BL revo with me so friends can drive it.

I made custom body mounts for the G3R, letting the body sit super low. Looks awesome.
Unfortunately I have some issues with Maxamps Lipos, at the moment I can only use 75% of the 8000mAh capacity... but since I spared no expenses on this truck, I'll soon have top notch Lipos too. You get what you pay for, and Maxamps just won't cut it for me anymore. Stay tuned on this.


Here are some pics of the new body mounts, they are made out of PVC:

very nice :043: do you have any pics with the body onher

Sure! But this is only a prototype kind of body, to keep it stealthy.
The real body is in the works, truggy style. (who wants a pickup on a racer anyway? Was a compromise, because of the wheelbase)
This Ford body is already beaten up, btw.

So please don't hold me for this body, and the wheels are also more or less just for the picture. Like to run CFs on modified maxx rims.

ay dafni car look real nice. i had a question what is that part that holds the shim pins in place over the bulkhead brace. building from parts so i dunt know all the parts and traxxas does not show it in the assembly pictures.

hey i luve that body but i like the pickup bodys :004:and well ima ford guy lol. man that thing sits LOW!:eek: looks so friggin good daf :043: i wish my truck looks 5% as good as that thing does

Thank you guys, I like it too. You should see it drive, it really IS low, it hugs the track.

Brushless Losi, I'm not sure what you mean by shim pins? But I assume you meant the part that was once just a stock revo bodymount/bumpermount. Right? I modified it, and it does appear on the exploded view, btw. It's part number 5314.

thanks they looked like a seperate piece in the picture. didnt know they were attached to the body mounts. thnks for clearing it up for me.
