ultra MBX...in the beginning... - 06.02.2006, 07:09 PM
Hello all

This is my newest project in it's early stage of BL conversion. Ultra MBX 80% kit. I have two 18v 3000mah makita Li-Ion battery packs for it. Warrior 9920 controller that i'm scapping for a Quark 125b Monster, I currently have a BK 9L that i'm scrapping for a 8XL. I traded the funky rear brace for Traxxas Tubes how do you like em? Oh and these are the tires I have for it.:018:

Looking good! Are those tires on the 9.5 Proline Knuckles?
I think the Traxxas Tubes are a good trade-off for the stock rear plate.

SH Z-Car, Custom Crawler, 8s Savage, 12s XTM XLB 1/7 buggy, 4wd 4-link rear/IFS Pro4 truck, Custom Hyper 10 Short Course, Belt-Drive Mammoth ST 1/8 truggy, 4s 17.5 MM Pro HPI Blitz

It looks like this one:
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=44991
at $459.99

HarborFreight also has a smaller one:
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=47158
at $249.99
I've been thinking about buying this one for some time. I'd expect it would handle just about any normal R/C part, short of a chassis.

Electronics run on smoke... if you let the smoke out, they stop working.

I might look into that mini drill, looks promicing. Looks like it can handle about anything on that we work on.
