wide open designs BLOWER BUGGY

[j-bird]

dang...dude that came out nice...are you gonna leave that scoop open or are you gonna try to hide the esc some how..it would be sic if you could find somekind of plastic motor and stash the esc inside so the motor showed thru the tubework...i say motor i mean blower though


something like this


you could hollow the center out and hide the r8 i think


if you want pay for shipping and its yours...pay it forward...lol

[buggy]

I'll have to keep my eye out for something like that. Don't know if I could get out to work tho, it's in there tight right now.

did that just for you.

[Rig Rocker]

Man that looks Awesome!!! I love the way you caged the esc into hood like a blower / motor. It looks sick that way and is representing the actual powerplant that we really use instead of a fake scale motor.

Right on Bro

[bluechevytuber]

Its done so where's the action pics?! Looks great Gabe

[badhoopty]

def one of the coolest toobers ive seen in 10 or so years...

great job.

[ScaleReady]

When you sent me a text message with this buggies picture on it I almost shit a brick. Simply top notch. Attention to detail is just crazy. Adam will be honored to see this thing at Dixie Gurantee it!

[buggy]

thanks guys! it's a heavy pig weighing in at 11 1/2 pounds. i'll be keeping this one in the fleet for a long time. the first run i had it on was a night run so no action pics yet. im going to steves saturday for the etrc gtg so maybe i'll get some action pics then.

[White Stripe]

uh-wicked cool. Leave the esc where it is-its functional and looks great.

[buggy]

thanks man and that's the plan, it's easy to get to for when i need to switch to 6s, and you can see the fan running!

[Reflection]

Thanks Gabe for letting me hold the remote for a little bit. This thing is cool on 3s.....SICK on 6s...... I want one.

Seems to crawl really well. I'm not used to running rear steer anymore, I think having front dig would be better personally. The rear steer is cool though. The coolest part is dropping the hammer on this thing while running 6s. You gotta stand back cause this thing will shoot a mean rooster tail of gravels, dirt, trees and everything else on the ground.

[buggy]

your just use to runnin them dang ol comp crawlers man! i use rear steer a lot when im at full throttle on a steep hill and the @$$ end needs to be lined back up with the front. it's saved me a lot. come on back to the dark side steve, you know you want to. i've got something up my sleeve and you need to get a rig ready to rock race. think ultra 4/ koh style racing. i'll talk to you about it more later on.

Looking really good buggy, it's very true to the 1:1.

Needs an interior and a driver though.

[buggy]

thanks guys! i would like to put a interior in one day but right now im just focusing on maximum performance.

here is some pics i took of my servo upgrade, i needed more servos ( i robbed the ones off my m&m fab buggy) and i figured i get stronger ones. i would of went with the 7980's but i wasn't sure they would fit. and i had to get some good servo horns also, the old ones just wasn't cutting it.

[MG200]

those are some bent horns! I've got two of those red horns on my EB with dual 7980's. I have yet to bend one.

[buggy]

so i've been wanting to try out the new rc4wd tires and with my rig being so heavy they work great!
