I spent too much time and money on this truck but I am real happy with the results. :004:
I wanted it to be fast and cool looking. :027:

Have on order the 2 - 3s 8000 mah Maxxamp batteries from Mike and a custom inline LVC that Mike designed. This truck is going to move. :013:

Trying to break the 55mph speed limit. Anything above that will be gravy.

What does everybody think? Good job or not? (Only nice things to say please!)

Looks great! I would loose a few of those items though. I would suggest getting rid of the aluminum body mounts for sure. They will only cause problems. Another thing I would do is get the Traxxas aluminum pushrods and tierods instead of the Lunsford. I had some Lunsfords and they bent REALLY easy. The front pushrods are pretty suseptable to hitting stuff. Lets put it this way...My dad hit something with my nitro truck 1 time with the Lunsfords on it and bent one. He hit the same thing several times (clipped it the same way) with the aluminum ones and they still look brand new.

I have had problems already with the aluminum body mounts so I am slowly switching back to the traxxas ones as soon as I use up the ones I already have. Ideally RPM should make them because there bumpers are indestructible. As far as the Lunsford I have not had any problems yet and also since they are titanium they must be stronger than alum (and lighter.) If you had a problem with them maybe it was just an unusual hit.

I suppose. If I'm not mistaken, the Traxxas ones are suppose to be stonger than titanium for some reason...I guess because there 7075.

Aren't the Traxxas ones hollow? 7075 aluminum isn't stronger than titanium, nor is titanium lighter than aluminum. Titanium pieces tend to weigh less because they can have more material removed from them while still keeping the same strength.

Yea, the Traxxas ones are hollow. Traxxas says that the aluminum tie rods are more the 2x stronger than titanium ones...There beefy as hell, but still light...

The Traxxas Turnbuckles are hollow, thus why they are called "Tubes." The hollow design coupled with the 7075 material makes them, according to Traxxas, twice the strength of a Titanium Turnbuckle and 4x as stiff.

The Pushrods, however, are not hollow. But they are 7075, which makes them very strong.

Titanium is heavier than aluminum. Titanium metal is actually an alloy. Titanium in its raw form is brittle and rather similar to sulfur. However, when combined with steel and other metals, titanium alloy is twice as strong and 40-60% lighter than steel, depending on the grade of steel compared to the grade of titanium alloy. However, it is not lighter than aluminum.

Not to mention titanium is EXPENSIVE...

The only thing I can tell you is that they are holding up so far.

I can't wait to get the batteries, this thing is going to fly. :eek:

You were having problems with your batteries heating up what was it?
How do you like your BK20150 controller your the first person I've seen with one.

BTW NICE TRUCK you did a very good job on it.
