The "Bash-Maxx" from Europe

[pako1979]

Hello,

My name is Patrick and i come from Austria/Europe. I want to present my "Bash-Maxx" here in your forum.
My english is not very good, and so i will post more pictures. If you have questione i hope i can answer it.

Now to my Maxx. I took 2 FLM-Chassis and play "FRANKENSTEIN"

I make the Chassis longer for 6,5cm. Now the Wheelbase is 40,5cm (around 16") and i make the Savage Flux Lipoboxes on the Chassis. So the weight is lower and the Maxx is very easy to drive. Not always lying on the back after a fullthrottle an no rolling to the side when driving corners.
The maxx also have FLM Combo-Bulks, full RPM suspension and a CC Combo with 2200kV which i drive on 4s Lipo.

anough words, now to the pic´s.

I've thought about doin this to an FLM chassis to lower its CG... Just hard for me to justify cuttin up a perfectly good $100 chassis ... Any way you could post some close ups of how the boxes are mounted? Maybe some vids too ...

[ANGRY-ALIEN]

Nice build man... lowering the FLM Chassis transforms the Maxx into a entirely new truck... what shock/spring combo are you using now?
I Have an FLM mod too that has been a whole lot of fun... you can see it in my sig below.

Sweet truck! keep us updated.

Very original and nicely done!

Welcome to RCM

[pako1979]

Thanks for your congratulations. (From the Masters of the forum it taste very good)

I hope you can see, that the conversion is done very well and not crapy. The most work was he thinking about how i can make it. This take about 2 mounth, the working self was only 5 hours.

i´m proud of the weight. 4.617 gramm (about 10.20 OZ) without Lipos

here are more pic´s

Great build, smart piece of engineering.

Original mods indeed, good job
I like the welded rear center driveshaft

I have a FLM chassis as well, I found another solution to protect the packs and to fix the pack's sliding problem : RCM custom trays



Maybe Mike (RCM owner) can make a rear center driveshaft for you, if yours doesn't last

A vid would be cool !

I swear 2 weeks ago I was looking at the flux boxes for my FLM maxx braces! Maybe you've seen MY MAXX? I am going to cut the trays and mount my packs saddle style as documented. I still plan to do this even though you beat me to the punch, I still have some setup that will make my Maxx unlike another. GREAT JOB!! EXCELLENT!

[what do now]

Great Job, thats looks seamless.

I had looked at the flux battery tray too, but couldn't figure out a way to fit them, nerver thought of cutting the chassis and if I had, I couldn't have brought myself to doing it.

Well Done.

[Popoxx]

I've just noticed you welded 2 chassis It's really original I like

[_paralyzed_]

awesome build! Welcome to the forums! I'd love to see more pics.

[Urgeoner]

Welcome! Nice build! Post some video?

[pako1979]

Sorry no videos ant this time. outside is all full of snow everywhere.

Now it was time to make a nice Karo and put on better looking wheels.
The karo is from an XTM Mammouth an have 39cm wheelbase and fits perfect. Wheels are PL Masher 3.2 with 8-shooter beadlocks.

greats pako
