Muggy: The Cadillac of bashers

[bdebde]

I have seen quite a few people asking questions about the Muggy lately, so I thought I would share mine. I had already done a 1/8th scale buggy for the track and wanted a basher. I could not decide on a monster truck or a truggy, so the Muggy kind of split the difference. I also prefer a center diff over the transmissions in the monster trucks, so that sealed the deal. I also like the way the mudguards on my buggy keep the crap out, and the Muggy had that as an option too. The Cadillac Escalade body really hugs the mudguards well and keeps all the crap out.

A few details:

Neu 1515 2.5D
MGM-Compro 16024 ESC
Neu Energy 4300 lipo (25c)
Innovative RC 4mm chassis
TiNi Diff gears in Al cases
40 series Bowties for off-road
HPI Phaltlines for on-road

One thing to keep in mind, this thing is HEAVY! With nitro it is 11.4lbs., mine weighs in at 12lbs.! But this thing really rips for a heavy rig!











I have not had much run time on it as the weather really sucks here in the winter, but I am really having a blast when I can get a few dry days to run it.

Feel free to ask any questions if you are considering a Muggy. I may even be able to help you out with a motor mount, nothing fancy, just hand made and attaches to the diff support.
