Muggy (and a short introduction)
 

Hello,

I am new here and will introduce myself shortly.
I am Vincent and I live in Holland (neighbour of René (Serum))

In the the summer I'm mostly busy with rc boats like a HPR135.
This is a short video http://vimeo.com/15712169 of my boat.

My first serious car was a Traxxas e-maxx witch I rebuild with a lot of alu (g-maxx and integy)

At this moment I'm building a Losi Muggy.
Set up will be:
Neu 1515 2.5d or Lehner 2240/10 with a mgm compro 140amp esc on 6s lipo.
Motormount and battery tray kit from the shop are on their way to Holland.
The body is from Simbio the wheels from Imex and the rear wing is from Proline.
I changed all the bearings, put in the Losi hd diff cups and changed the diff oil.

and now some pictures :yipi:

Sweet lookin Muggy!

Welcome to RCM

Much better looking muggy for sure!

Welcome to the fun house!

Welcome aboard! Now get Serum back on here regularly...


Thats a really nice Muggy! I've been looking at the Imex tires in the 40series for a while. Those look great!

Nice boat as well! I've seen that video posted on offshoreelectrics.com

Welcome to the Muggy club! Love those tires - been considering them myslef, and now that I've seen them on yours, gonna order a set.

Consider adding a chassis brace to your muggy - helps with the chassis flex front to back.

Don't forget to up some naked pics when it's done :wink:

I like the body, what paint / color is it?

Welcome to RCM!

EDIT: yay 500 worthless posts already!

thats a great looking muggy

:O

best looking muggy i've seen so far!

cant find any 40 series imex?

only 38 and 44?

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

The tires are the Imex 38 all t series on an Axial 8 spoke oversize wheel.

Paint is from Tamiya, metallic black and pearl white.

Haha I don't talk to him that much but when I see him I will tell him.


Do you have an example of such a brace?

Very nice Muggy!! That gives me inspiration to get mine going. We definitely need to see some pics with the lid off.

I will post some pictures after I install the motormount, esc and lipo's (parts arrived at customs in Holland)

Looks really mean- what shell is that?

I bought the shell in Germany, it's a Symbio T1 from RMV-Deutschland.

I made some pictures from under de body
