Default My Trash King

Hello,

I present my project of scale to you, the Trash King. At the beginning, this vehicle was an assembly of all the parts remaining of the construction of another project of crawler. And then, I was caught with the play and the project became a little more serious

Starting configuration :
  • R2 trany
  • ESC Rooster crawler
  • 2s lipo
  • 27T motor ok WK
  • Radio of WK
  • Tire of WK
  • Axle of WK
  • Shock of Bully
  • Servo Hitec tired for the crawler but perfect for this project


This project at summer the occasion to produce a frame tubes, a first for me…




A first assembly, to have an idea :



Continuation of the construction of the frame :



With the final panels :







Frame in preparation of painting. I wanted to paint the orange frame at the beginning, but I did not have this color of available, that will be gray.






Assembly to see the aspect.






Arrived at this point in the project, I decided to offer to him of true tires.

To come, the assembly of Rock Crusher 2.2 and completions.

Thanks

Looks good. I love it when you have enough parts laying around to build something.

Hello,

Thank you for your comments
Yes, it is a large mixture of the kinds, when I began this project, I did not have any idea of the result. Here it is gone up with the final tires.







The configuration also evolves :
ESC Tekin,
Motor 50T
and Lipo 3S.

It has correct capacity of crawl. But the axles not being blocked, one arrives quickly at his limits… The tires are splendid, but too hard… to work

To follow...

That thing looks primal! Like it would eat a berg and crap it out on the trail.

I couldn't agree more.

TotoRax - You built a gnarly looking machine. Low slung... looks like it's ready to own some comps.

I liked it better with the wheel king wheels and it needs four wheel steer.

Hello,

Yes, it's more fun with the Wheel King wheels, this project being mainly intended to play with my children, I will give his wheels later to him.
The Rock Crusher will go on a future more serious scale project. The TrashKing enabled me to learn how to manufacture a frame tubes and to see the various difficulties.

Bye

Hello,

Some update;

I had, in one box 2 pair of CVD Integy Universal Drive Shaft, which I never could installed (I did not buy the Integy HD Bevel Gear Set ). After much of do-it-yourself, of catch of head , I could assemble them on the front axle and block the transmission. Afflicted, not of photograph of the assembly, I have to remove them by error .

For the back, I have to recover the parts on the rear axle of AX-10 of my daughter (I am malicious ).

Now, I have more motricity, but without surprised that turns less better. The basic geometry of steering of the WK is not super... Thus small modification of the Knuckle in aluminum of 3mm (On the principle of zero Ackerman).



The CVD allow more steering, while playing a little with the file, one obtains that.







Now with the axles blocked that turns rather well
