|  Dez's Trail Class Unimog (new pics added pg 8) Ok, so I've been drooling over Zach's Unimog since day one. Ever since his first version I've been kind of obsessed w/ the Mogs!  When it went up for sale I missed it, but I did end up w/ Zach's KOH Jeep(Build thread coming soon). All was good and my Mog obsession kind of went into remission. Then Zach built his v2 Mog and I was hooked again.Right there I decided that I had to have one! So I started gathered up all of the necessary parts & accessories, I did a bunch of research on Mogs and then I headed over to the Dinky RC shop (The Hive) for some brainstorming sessions w/ Matt about the direction I wanted this build to go. First off the specs for Helmet: Axial SCX 10 Honcho Dinky RC Tube work JP Custom RC assorted aluminum upgrades Axial Hi Steer Knuckles Axial Overdrive Gears (front) Dinky Link 4 Link Mount Hand Bros CMS Kit Pro Line Scale Shocks MIP Drive Shafts Robinson Racing HD Outdrive diff Lock RC4WD 1.5 Rocky Country Tires 1.5 RC4WD Beadlocks Hitec Servo Winch Castle Sidewinder ESC Castle BEC Spektrum Rx Hitec 5995Tg 19 Turn 550 Motor Flightmax 3S 40C 2650 mAh Lipo I had some features that I wanted to incorporate in the build and of course Matt had some great ideas as well that are being incorporated into the build. After we bouncing ideas off of each other and explaining that I wanted something very simular but not and exact copy of Zach's Mog. So we started bending up some tube and things really started to come together. I won't bore you guys w/ pics of a SCX rolling chassis, I'm sure you all know what they look like.  Here are a few pics of were the project is at this time.  Front end tube work.   Bed area.   Side view.  Stay tuned.........  Last edited by dezfan; 01-27-2011 at 09:46 PM. |
