WHAAAT!? Are re-opening their doors?! I want a monoblock extension and some drive shafts SO bad!!
There has been a new thread started on just that. NEW PARTS has been open for a few days now sharing the info on UE trying to start up again. he is releasing the monoblock again in Feb for a start. You can pre order right now for a 20% discount, and it will be shipped sometime in mid Feb. He is getting slammed with pre orders right now, and I don't think he expected such a huge turn out. He also had to raise his prices slightly due to the economy situation, but it is still reasonable in my eyes. You better jump on this offer while it lasts.
Excellent looking truck - I think 2 Big Maxximums are just crazy. I am a big Plettenberg fan and have several Big Maxximums and their Bolido monster motor. They are extremely torquey motors. I know everybody is very keen on the Neu motors - dont get me wrong I love Neu too... but to me the Plettenberg Big Maxximum when paired up with a Schulze controller is just mad especially when you back flip a 16lb monster alloy truck standing still.
with 2 BIG Max - what are you going to do? Pull a real 1:1 scale?

Hey there Mohanjude what you doin with the Bolido? Want to sell it?
thanks guys...you have to love this truck if you like BL!!...i just weighed the truck...body,duals,wheels,batts=====15.4lb
i am headed to my IT guys house now to get video up...quality is great,videography is OK...my 9year old discovered ZOOM,it is hard to find fast moving objects while using zoom feature at 9 years!!...the first scene says it all...UE truck flying through air sideways at golf course!!
Another fun looking machine I see. I bet that is a blast to drive around the yard. How much does that thing weigh? And how does the Bolido handle the wieght of it? Thanks for the photo of your truck, that is a nice build you have there.

The truck weighs aproximately 20lb with 6000ma 10s lipos. The Bolido hauls it around no problem. I dont mean to hijack Plettys thread but if you go to the thread above the picture you will see a video of it outside my house.
this is it...my 9 year old got a little frustrated with the video camera he had it on zoom and couldn,t find the truck...we will do better next time.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XE-ERluc7ms
Amazing truck. Next time video without zoom, otherwise pretty good ..

You could upload the file in rapidshare or megaupload or somewhere similar file upload place. Megaupload can take up to 1gig files.. But if you are looking as straightforward as youtube. I dont think there is any . That youtube video was quite good with the high quality setting though..
