Step by step my 2nd monster is waking up !!! (pics, vids and lists)

Sweet, I need to take mine down the woods in the summer when its warmer, much more varied terrain

And its not cold... its bloody freezing!

The video is great Popoxx as always! The truck looks good I look forward to seeing the interior shots.

[Bondonutz]

Shweet video, lots of obstacles with all them trees, but nice jumps !

[Popoxx]

Thanks guys

My ERBE made friends with lots of trees of this spot but my bank account doesn't like them

I'm going to change the look of my ERBE and to strengthen it, I hope I could post pics by mid-April Zack.

Can't wait the vid of your beast you promised neil ! The MT you're building looks awesome and I'm sure it's really funny to drive it

The cage looks sweet! It's freaking beefy! I've tried those CF pushrods and didn't like'em , unless your trying to shave as much weight as possible they arent worth it to me. I SHATTERED my set off a 6ft jump with 50wt shock fluid, I went back to lunsford Ti versions--Josh

Nice truck, look great

what knid of motor mount is that

[suicideneil]

Heres the thread for that motor support bracket thingy:

That erevo looks bitchin' thanks to that cage and dye-job, rarely seen such evidence of bashing that severe...

[Popoxx]

You're wrong neil this ERBE is a shelf-queen !!

















... just kidding

I will be wise I swear

Thanks for your kind words medicineman & bigsteel. The motor mount is a prototype, the final version will be available soon I hope ! Concerning the carbon pushrods we'll see, I just wanted to test them
But if they can't hold out a 6ft jump, I keep my Traxxas tubes in the tool box !

The push rods may have just been a fluke or a bad set,but I'm 6ft tall and they passed eye level and sploded on impact!LOL,I hope you have better luck than I did ,though they look slick while they are in one piece!--Josh

[Bondonutz]

I've ben looking at your threads of your E-trucks and I admire them and especially the nice photography. Excellent pics !
Wish I had such nice woodsy backgrounds to work with. I'm really liking how you have set your trucks up with no all glam and glitter, just the stuff needed to make them tough but with subtle tones of coolness.

Heres one of my ERevos;http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23008

Thanks Bondonutz, I see we share the same RC philosophy Your custom trucks look great too

A long vid of 2 bashing sessions with pdcsq , another French Traxxas/RCM forum member (my ERBE has the blue body) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuDRsR2IgH0.

As the Turnigy 2S 20C 5000mAh packs aren't really powerful I wanted to test new packs. I've chosen the ProTek 2S 50C 5600mAh packs (link).






Perfect fit ! :






With my previous mod for the Turnigy packs I just needed to dremel the spot below not to damage the connectors :




My ERBE currently :








Quick review of the packs soon

[Bondonutz]

Great video !

The Erevo was def the best jumper of the bunch, handles the landings and was more stable. Good Job.

[blueb8llz]

i enjoyed the video. thanks

[suicideneil]

Hmm, hope those work well for you, kinda pricey @ $100 for a 2s pack.
