Just another buggy conversion
 

Here are some pics of my MBX5.
The pics really don't do it any justice, especially the paint job looks much better in real live.

I got it used from Starscream, and gave it a good make-over.

Looking good Daf. Did you do the paint job?

No, paint job was done by a friend of Starscream.

But the wiring is my job...wait, what wires? :004:

Very nice Dafni :cool: :dft003:

and again...

Nice!!!!!! What XL is that (kv?)

Thank you!

It's an 8XL, 1600and something KV. Only the test dummy, though. Will bust out a Lehner when the weather get's better (Lipo)

6S of maxamps right?

Yeah, and/or 5S. And a 1950/8.

A much smaller motor would do in a buggy, but it's just "too light" with lipos, so I had to compensate with a heavy motor. LOL

The bottom chasiss is that custom built? It don't look factory. Looks pretty good.

Could you get a close-up of the motor mount? It looks very nice and clean BTW.

i love this truck because of 2 things:
1. IT'S LOOKING CLEAN NO DIRT AND NO WIRES EVERYWHERE! nice!
2.IT"S BRUSHLESS!!!!!

A close up of the mount? Not a problem, but it might take some time. I need to borrow a digicam. Maybe over the weekend, okay?

Thanks for the comments!

I like the wiring job a lot, will be hard to surpass it on the G3R.

Wow, pure sweetness! For some reason I thought you'd finished this already, not sure why, but good to hear it'll be running soon.

It IS running, I use it to test different motors. But unfortunately it is still too cold for Lipos here, so I have to make do with my Nickel cells.

And yeah, it WAS running a while back, but with a mess of a wire job... can't have this, gave me sleepless nights ;)

And yeah, Leroy, this chassis is a custom job. Done by Starscream, I just added some bends and the black color.

Nice work Dafni

Looks incredible! We can always expect great work from you, Daf.

For all who have missed it, here's a recent pic:

But it is dirty. I don't think you ever take pics of your stuff dirty. You not slipping on your older age are you. :027: I like the clean shoots better. It just shows no shelf queen. :D

Ya, s'right leroy, me no shelf-quinn builda! Neva have, neva will.
Only see them clean pix of me stuff when it's fresh outta press.

Brothas in spirit, leroy and me, we build it to bash it! :028:

I hears you brother daniel. I know why you posted that one. You wanted to have your pic on the world wide web. :D

I thought he was shy, the only pic i ever saw of him was on LSARC jumping a mini-z monster
