Skullduggery This is my first build I have ever posted on RCC, so here it goes... I've been workin on this rig for a few weeks now... picked the chassis up from a guy that had aborted his project... when I got the chassis I saw why he had.... its geometry was off, I really like the shape so I whipped out the cutoff wheel and cut it up a bit, realigned everything to the right positions and had a friend tig it into place... once that was done it was time to do a little bodywork then a paint job... so 5 coats of black and a coat of green metal flake later it was looking much better... after that I made the skidplate, then some 3/8" delrin bottom links, 60/40 configuration... I had picked up a set of ax10 axles and trans from D&K hobbies my LHS... these as always worked perfect... because it was 60/40 the rear of the rig was longer and would have to be extended, I machined a piece of 3/8" delrin rod to make an upper link extension that slipped over the stock three link end, this made for a clean install.... next was the steering link, made from the same delrin rod... used a tower pro servo... the electrics are attached to a custom alum tray mounted to the upper link bolt... electric use is a mamba25 and an eflite 450 brushless setup.... last the custom body panels made from lexan with custom decals applied. for now the wheels are extra narrow rc4wd with rock claws. I guess thats about it.... here are the pics. http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_12.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_06.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_08.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_09.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_10.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_11.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_13.jpg http://hauntnet.com/rc/skullduggery/skullduggery_05.jpg |

Ya, It was a little bit tweaked. I just didnt have the time to fix it. But it shere is sweet now. Lets see some flex shots. |
That looks sweet! The pannels are awsome. Now are those links solid derlin? |
Agreed..it looks very sweet. Like to know if it hangs up around the skid area? |
WOW...very cool....i like the paint....like the frame....awesome job |

Overall, it looks great, with the exception of the front end. Just my opinion but aesthetically it'd be nice to see a slightly longer hood. Still, a sweet looking rig! |
Looks great! BTW... your rear tires are backwards |
