Good to know that you are not giving up on the motor, with truggy diffs it should be good. BTW I like the hot rod picture next to the mill and lathe

That looks awesome.

Looks sick man! But holy hell thats going to be a brick.

[suicideneil]

BL brick, the best kind

Funny, I swear you said you wouldnt make custom chassis once upon a time- but people would pay good money to own ones like that, just look at the Maxxler chassis....

...oh yeah :D Thats EXACTLY the kind of finish i had in mind when i made THIS lol...

...makes you cry doesnt it lol...

...btw this picture has been banned from being shown to elderly people and small children...Lasting trauma apparently

Very, very nice candyman. You really are the candy man, you supply candy to my eyes.

Great work Ryan! Haven't checked this thread for a few days, and look what you've created..

One fine looking lightning, the best i've seen so far! and it's not even finished yet.

Knowing both you and your skills I know this will be another jaw-dropper.

(check out his site, the airsoft guns he makes are from another world) the patience and skills are incredible

Is there any way we can help you overcome your lipo-fear btw? I know a good counsiler.. (kind of a cyclops, a truly great guy)

Hey guys, thanks!

Bithed, im just a PM away if you want a quote :)

All gone together rather well, first gentle run was surprisingly good, it felt a bit flat in my garden but out in the open it does actually move rather well. I didnt expect theis motor to work well on this voltage but its fast, no other word for it really.











Ok, now to the shell, lsp shell is a bit hard to find so I bought a Proline Crowd Pleazer for a kyosho ST-RR, I just need to jiggle the body posts a bit.

this one:

Wow thas just plain awesome. If you are going to keep nimh 18 cells is the way to go. I would hate to see someone try this setup on only 12.

very nice Ryan. you got that aluminium from Chronos?

The only thing you might want to change on that setup are the shocks/ shocktowers. there sure is some room for improvement on the stock suspension

[Aceldama]

That is a work of art. Excellent job.

[BL_RV0]

Beautiful.

[MetalMan]

Nice work! Turned out excellent, especially considering the crude initial cuts .

Only thing I have to add: be careful with those tires. A buddy of mine's truck has ripped through two of them.

Looks great CM! But you need lipo's man...
