The "Un Stuck" Sporty! So here is what it started out as. Really rough and ugly. I ran this chassis for a year and a half now with good results. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...436-60447.jpeg But I wanted to bring it to life so I reached out to Robbob (told him not to laugh) with the idea but it needed to be fixed up, cleaned up and a Krazed touch put to it. So I sent it to the Krazed Builds lab…and here it is, the new “Un Stuck” Chassis from Krazed Builds. Showed up last night along with my smash plate and this thing looks awesome. Rob designed to skid to work with a Hulksta transmission or an Axial transmission. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60429.jpg Specs for my new ride: Front Axle: SCX/AX10 Axle housing Creation Fab Brass/Delrin tubes Custom Smash Plate VP Wraith C’s VP Wraith Knucks RCBros Knuckle weights and Holders 2.2oz per side Axial 36/14 OD Gear Axial XR Universal Axle Shafts Grip Fab Locker AVID Bearings TI Drag link and tie rod Rear Axle: SCX/AX10 Axle Housing Duuuuude Link Mount Creation Fab Aluminum/Delrin Tubes Axial 43/13 UD Gears VP XR10 width Axle Shafts Grip Fab Locker AVID Bearings Transmission: Hulksta Axial XR10 Internal Gears AVID Bearings Chassis / Suspension: Krazed Builds "Un Stuck" Chassis Custom Krazed Builds Delrin Skid & CF Adaptor plate for Hulksta Trans Aluminum Cross Members Egressor Shocks with Mini T springs and Jeepindoug spring cups 30wt Shock Fluid F&R Gunnar body Mounts TI Links all around Traxxas Max Shafts Electronics: Holmes 30T Flow Motor Castle Micro Sidewinder ESC Hitec 7950 Servo Castle 10A BEC Futaba RX Futaba 4PL Rolling Stock: Crazed Builds 3pc Snowflake CF Wheels 225 Hubs rear 850 Hubs Front Ottsix VooDoo Tires.

Some New Some Old http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60453.jpg So first thing I wanted to do was get the trans installed and make sure it all lined up. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60424.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60419.jpg Fit perfectly "thumbsup" Thats all I got done last night. Hoping to get the axles buttoned up tonight. |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! It was def a fun project and cant wait to see it brought to life and the tweaks and changes we can do along the way. "thumbsup" Gonna be a game changer in a lot of aspects to the 2.2S class Im thinking :twisted:. |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Got the axles buttoned up last night. Rear http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60437.jpg Snap ring hold the bearing in. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60438.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60456.jpg Front http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60433.jpg Tubes have been drilled tapped and tightened.

Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Good start, I'm going to be very interested to see what your motor and pinion combo will be for this build. I'm currently working on a 2.2 trail rig project utilizing a Hulksta Standalone gearbox and can use some schooling. Looking forward to seeing more. |

I got the smash plate installed. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60463.jpg Had to clearance the case a bit to make the servo sit nicely and installed the servo http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60472.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60490.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60492.jpg Got my home made electronics tray on there too. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60489.jpg Hopefully get it to roller status this weekend"thumbsup" |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Looks like a lot of caster, is there room to run the steering link above the driveshaft? |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Joel, looks great...! "thumbsup""thumbsup" Looks like a lot going on there.... Are the axles as wide as xr ??? Robbob does great work....."thumbsup""thumbsup" |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Quote:
No room to run the link above the drive shaft. And don't mind the long *ss screws. Thats on my list of things to do http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60530.jpg Quote:
Ya that front axle is a busy place and yes they are full XR width. Rob does some excellent work! |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Well I got it all linked up this weekend. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60516.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60517.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60518.jpg I got my drag link mocked up. Anyone who saw the first one :oops: will think this is an improvement.:ror: Now i need to order a TI link to bend up http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60525.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60526.jpg AND It's a roller. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60520.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60519.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60527.jpg Gonna try to get the electronics installed tonight and tie up some loose ends. BUT i couldn't wait. Tossed everything else on there including a battery. This should be really close the RTR weight. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60521.jpg Thanks For Looking"thumbsup" |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! are those the upper link spots and angles you ran on the original chassis? just curious. got mine powered up the other night and was very impressed with how it felt just on my makeshift practice spot at home. |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Quote:
Nice! I saw that you were 2nd down in front and 3 down in rear. Is that the way your still running? Once I get it rolling we will have to compare notes |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Quote:
To start I am but my rear links are on top of the rear plate so theyre a little more parralell with the ground I think. Just habit for me. Once the other tester gets his rolling I wanna watch where you guys settle in on your links so I can tweak around that. |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Looking good Joel!"thumbsup" |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! I hear you, its busy behind the front axle. Your moving quickly on a weekend deadline and its looking good. Thanks for the pinion info. I'm currently running a 18t and the motor gets barely warm but the wheel speed is a bit slow. Good luck with the new rig. "thumbsup" |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Very cool build. Makes me want to build up another. A lot of cool parts. |
Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Dang Joel, that was a fast build, light too!"thumbsup" |

Re: The "Un Stuck" Sporty! Well its been a busy week but I got the electronics installed and it lives. I had to make an ABS extension to my E tray so that everything would fit nicely and still have room for the drag link. Also added some 5mm external limiters to the front shocks to keep the brace's from smashing down onto the electronics. Probably could use a little more but I will start there. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60560.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60561.jpg With everything installed and a little tweaking. Im sitting at 2 7/8 at the front of the skid. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60557.jpg http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/membe...4156-60562.jpg A Dlux package showed up with my link sliders (Installed) and VP came thru super fast with my TI link. Time to finish the steering, make up a battery tray and give it a shakedown run. Gonna try to work out any bugs before our comp next weekend, BUT if not...... I'll run it anyways"thumbsup" |
