Truggy
 

Yo Mike - when you gonna have a truggy forum - dont forget how much fun we had running those damn things.....

Truggy forum
 

Not a bad idea, Walt. I guess I need to carry some Truggy parts. Maybe I will make a better chassis brace for the Lightning stadium when I get my cnc machine! By the way, nice AVATAR!

cnc
 

what is the eta for that cnc? - and maybe a chassis even????? could be interesting...

eta - next week. Hopefully! I was thinking about an electric conversion for it, too!

You mean something like this?

or even this?

Almost there...

It is my nitro Hyper 7 to electric conversion. Making it more of a truggy.... Now just need some good brushless motors to test in it. I already have the 9918 controller.

Yes, Keith, Like that! I was speaking of the Hot Bodies lightning Pro stadium truck to convert, though. The long wheelbase and wide suspension makes it super stable and it is EASY to drive fast. Electric 1/8 buggies are cool, too.

Thanks!

Sweet looking - bet you cant wait to see it go...

Thanks - It runs great. i ran it with a Warrior 9918 ESC and a 10L motor on 12 cells. It is insane.

Walt,
I made the motor mount for the truggy today. It needs a little tweaking, but it will do the job. When I actually sit down to do the actual conversion, I will change a few things on the truck itself (move servos, re-locate motor, etc.).

let me know when you need the triznuggy. Cant wait to test it -it should rock when done - who needs nitro - super wide - super fast - super power - super voltage - CANT BRUSH THIS....what more could you ask for??? Go CNC GO...

triznuggy????

lol trizz
 

its a slang thing - trizznuggy = truggy - lol

In france, some crazy guys start from a 1/8 off road buggy to make something like that... :D

Thats a cool looking monster - dual fuel tanks - thats cool - does it turn well for being that long? If you could post a pic of the underneath so I could see how they did the chassis??? that would be cool....

I've no picture of the chassis. As far as I remember, the chassis is home made form aluminium using the stock shape.

Turning radius is a bad point of this truck but it's look fun on a track :)

We have a local guy that makes a kit for a 6 wheeled, 6 wheel drive, 6 wheel steering e-maxx/t-maxx. It is an awesome machine for sure! It also truns on a dime for such a huge machine. I will see if I can get a picture or a link to his site. he raced it a few times at some monster races, too.
