I like Detail & unique so I'll find something then tweak it a bit here's a few I like, Sniper & well I'm really just liking Sniper, but if I were to build a 2.2 then it would be like the new single seat competition crawlers http://www.avalancheengineering.com/design.html http://www.avalancheengineering.com/sniperchassis2.htm Last edited by toy4crawlin; 04-04-2007 at 10:36 PM. | |

I think aluminum is to soft. Keeping the weight at axle height and lower will give you great COG results Thanks for the axle props, I may have rushed the build on these though I was building them thinking I would just attached them with plates like all the other emaxx tube axles guys do. But I want something "Cleaner" than that. So back to design board, Question? : What do you guys think about attaching the Large 1" short tube to the Diff with Brazing or JB weld and then Insert the 2nd tube ring inside and fastening toghether with 3 small short button head screws ? so that the axle are removable. I cannot remove axle shafts from the outside ends because the dogbone end pin is slightly to large. I doubt the OFNA Jammin universals will break so I could Braze or JB weld the whole axle together ? Idea Drawing is with screws Left First Tube is 1" with smaller middle tube snug fit inside 1st tube Diff housing is ALUMINUM Tubes are steel Now that I think about it, I cannot Braze Aluminum with Steel. I would need to use a Metal bonder like JB weld for this joint Last edited by toy4crawlin; 08-19-2008 at 11:07 AM. | |

I was looking at the second picture say to myself that looks familiar then it click it was my axle picture. I still have a lot to do to mine. I sracpped the tubber chassis in favor of a stick like chassis.

| Build update: Wheel Locks RC4Wd has a disconnect tranny to disconnect rear driveline so you can steer tighter. but right now it's only single speed, if they come out with a 2 speed version then I'll use it and add a Line lock for the rear brakes. If Not, then PLan B: Adding a driveshaft Brake for the Rear Driveshaft. and use the mechanics like the gas powered rc's use for brakes, like an old RC10Gt Thanks to the Maxx sticky thread I've seen lots of posts asking about Revo shafts... I'll be using 5457 yoke for the rotor brake and the 5453 for the 5mm tranny shaft and the 5458 for the 8mm Losi Pinion shaft Humm... I ran out of radio channels LOL Servos: Ch#1 Throttle Ch#2 Front Steering - 5955 servo . Ch#3 Rear steer - either a 5955 or a 5995 Ch#4 Suspension- adjustable height servo 5955 Ch#5 Front Dig/ rear shaft lock, servo #? Ch#6 Tranny shift servo. stock servo Last edited by toy4crawlin; 05-15-2007 at 02:12 PM. |

UPDATE: Well this build will be much slower than I had hoped. My spending is out of hand, The last 4 months I have SPENT $3400.oo in RC Hobbies, My Toyota crawler, 2nd 4runner , and Tooling. But the plans on the axles are almost finalized. Build progress change: Change in Design on front axles Braze Aluminum sleeve on Diff cover and use bolts to connect stainless axle housing also this wheel width is looking like 16" + so I'm most likely going to use OFNA Hyper 8 Axle shafts that are only 5" long each wheel width should be around 14" Wheel base around 16.5 or 17" Another Mod: 6 LED Rock Lights , 2 flood offroad front lights & 1 interior light, New Parts: RC4WD 2 Speed tranny & Revo shafts for drive shafts 1/10 scale recaro seats Last edited by toy4crawlin; 05-15-2007 at 01:49 PM. |
