| "Big Bird" Mog build
Here we go again! I've had this one planned for a while. With the boom in Mog builds, I deceided I wanted something a little different. Most of the builds are using the full cab(they look awsome) but I want to go another route. Maybe no roof and windows with a little extra tube work. Nick (Spyderwebbcustoms) will be behind the tube work and fabrication on this one. Let's see if you can best the Silver Bullet Nick! Components: Axial Axles (aluminum C's and knuckles) Proline power stroke shocks Gmade carbon/steel drive shafts Axial Tranny Mamba Max ESC CC BEC Novak Ballistic 18.5 brushless motor Hitec 7955tg servo chassis mounted servo winch (front) RC4WD fairlead 3Racing winch (rear) RC4WD beadlock Hummer wheels Proline TSL tires Axial light buckets Some inspiration: Last edited by Oso787; 06-22-2011 at 05:25 PM. |
