I'll take a VBS clip too just in case I get crazy enough in bolting my VBS for bashing :).

Unpolish for me since it will be seeing dirt a lot. Good thing I have 2 extra GenIV servo saver

Harold...the MGT spur will bolt up!!...i think the center diamiter of the MGT slipper is 8mm just like the E/T maxx slipper!!....i am making them all the same to keep it simple!!....the slipper disc,pads and spur are stock RR...i just had to make custom pressure plates because the shaft has a large pin through it kind of like a CVD or dog bone to keep the slipper in place!!

...drool,drool,drool!!

I agree with you SSSconcepts about building the ultimate rigs. I have not raced a lick yet with any of my Maxx trucks, but some day I will be tearing up the tracks. In teh mean time I am having a blast just researching and building these things. Some say that the Maxx design is out of touch and outdated, but I think the engineering is one of the best made R/C vehicles, and especially with all of the aftermarket upgrades and specialty parts that you can get for them.

Matt thank you for trying to think of everything with these chassis that you are reproducing for us. I know that I am grateful for your efforts on our behalf. Having the custom slipper plates along with the mods that you are making is just awesome for an already incredible setup. I am looking forward to getting mine and building it up for another high speed project, and I haven't even finished the first one yet (my SuperMaxx).

Anyway thanks for doing this and keeping us up to date on the progress. These are boing to be incredible toys and on a limited production run. Way to go Matt.

Matt, did you extend out the battery area too? I'm too lazy to re-read the whole thread.

plettenbergs · 02.03.2009, 11:37 PM

yes...1/2" on each side...total 1 inch wider

George16 · 02.03.2009, 11:45 PM

Candyman2 · 02.06.2009, 06:11 PM

I think you have misread the thread. I am not the one making this truck. Matt AKA "Plettenberg" is the RCM member who is doing this for us. He has the first 12 comming out soon. I am just one of the happy customers on the first run receiving one of his creation. (Lucky Me). I was just sharing my thoughts on his support by doing this for us.

Candyman2 · 02.07.2009, 05:10 AM

oh right, sorry, I did misread your post. So Plettenberg, do tell, who made the original one?

George16 · 02.07.2009, 06:31 AM

Emaxxler made the original years ago.

plettenbergs · 02.07.2009, 09:01 AM

i got it from him with intentions of reproduction!
it cost me apretty penny!
i have also made many major mods to the chassis!

Candyman2 · 02.08.2009, 04:41 PM

Thats the guy! found the pics now

Cant believe it was 3 years ago he made that! Really something back then as there was nothing much in the way of chassis for the emaxx. Presumably he's given you the ok to copy and reproduce his chassis? just out of courtesy like.

plettenbergs · 02.08.2009, 05:54 PM

when i got it 2 years ago to make a copy with many upgrade/changes with his blessings!!...i have one more if you want it candyman!
