Yo man that was a nice series of photos. Its always nice to see just how much work goes into the builds. Great job and that is a very nice setup, but I am willing to bet it is also one of the most expensive builds around to. That was a lot of parts. Now how does it run for you? What MGM do you have onboard? It will be good to hear how those packs do for your setup to. Nice work TDC57

Thanks! it been a pleasure building it! and i hoping it will be a even greater joy driving it..(TBD) it's taken me over 36hrs of pure build time (inc. fab / moding) over the past two weeks.
I've got the MGM Compro 160 amp, 24 cell brushless boat car controller. But the dam thing will not power up?? it band new so I’m just lost and Need Mike or someone to tell me what to do with it.. Until then it's nothing more than a paper weight. :grrrrrr
Well whatever info you receive if it gets you running please post it up here. I just purchased the MGM 160/24 myself. It is new with the newest firmware update installed, and all of the accesories to keep it operating for a very good discount. So I am sure that I will be looking for assistance when I get ready to set it up in one of my trucks. Good luck with that and keep us posted TDC57.
Thats a crazy build. Nice pics too. What are your plans for it? Racing?
Thanks for the kind words..
52 hrs goal: Is get my MGM controller working so I can drive it! & I'm hoping that Mike will also me to bring it the RCX Expo this weekend and display it in his both? Mike your thoughts
From a calc standpoint, you almost need more voltage on that motor. 6s only turns 30k rpm on a low kv 1515/3d motor. At least it should run nice and cool, plus you can gear higher for speed.

Thanks xcntrk!.. I think it will be a great truck if it ever runs..
At this point I would be happy just to drive it! But I have no power at my controller so it's dead in the water.. So any and all help / advice would be great!
