Well, after doing fairly well with my previous build:

I decided on a new setup.

Jeremy hooked me up with one of his new prototype Mini Juice chassis. I'll be building it over the next week or so.

Specs:
MiniJuice Chassis
Lunsford Links
17T Crawler Mafia Motor
Mamba Micro Pro/Castle BEC
Rovers, Wheel Works, Axial, Novas

Angled skid to keep driveline angles set nicely with recessed screw holes on the bottom of the skid:

You can space the upper part of the cab how you want....I'll run it a bit narrower in the rear:

And then....................

Oh YEAH...got my cold beverage in hand and sitting on the edge of my seat...
lets see the BUILD..you will LOVE this chassis...its a work of ART "thumbsup""thumbsup"

Nice start...slow, but nice! :mrgreen:

Jeremy really did a nice job on this little guy, I'm sure you'll be pleased.

that is gonna be a killer setup. I see your finally getting smart and dumping the craptastic losi brushless setup.

Really the losi system is still kinda new,they'll work out the programing issue.

I went to bed. :ror:

I'll get building on the rest of it soon. Paul, yeah, Nabil showed me what I was doing wrong with the calibration of that ESC, but I still wasn't happy that it cut out on me when I was running a course, so I am switching back. Never had that issue with my brushed motors and castle products.

Haha....thanks. I build like I drive....slow as hell! :lol: Seriously, I had about 10 minutes of freetime after my kid went to bed before I had to get started on other projects...:lol:

i think you should wait until the night before the next big comp........

SHELBY STYLE!!"thumbsup"

Haha! That's how he always builds! I'm too much of a worrier for that lifestyle! :mrgreen:

I seem to remember giving you a very important pin the night before 2.2 :flipoff:

huh,

i owe it all to you"thumbsup"

Progress! (+2)

It looks like I'll be able to keep my BTA. I also will be moving the front shocks...outboard them on both the upper and lower mounts.

You better hurry up Shelby's is done, just kidding looking good man.

That's more like it. "thumbsup"

Thanks guys! I got a few more parts in the mail so some work will get done before I head out to Las Vegas this week for work.

Yeah, he built his the night before nationals.....I sat there and drank beer and watched. :ror: His performed very well that next day....I was kicking myself for not building mine!

Have fun at "work"!!

Looks like a belly dragger you need longer shocks!

Man, there's no pleasing you! :lol:

Actually, I was thinking the same thing. I've been looking for my Losi shocks this morning...

Hey Jeremy just noticed your sig matches the rainbow color order.....whats that all about....:ror:

I'm not liking the Servo I have on my mini.. What servo are you running on yours?

S9551. It isnt terribly strong, but it works with my BTA...

Haha....good catch.
