doing some body work on the scale body

WyldWeazel · 06-15-2010, 06:48 PM

Left truck is "The Sweetness". It is my comp Bully with my home made chassis. The right truck is my current "Scaler". Hopefully for fathers day I will get a new Blazer body and I will get to rebuild this one. Currently it is running a Gatekeeper 2 Chassis.

This is my 1.9 Scaler that I have been currently working on. It is running all Losi electronics plus a CCBEC. All electronics are in a water resistant box. I drove it for the first time tonight... and I was shocked how good it ran. I still need to weight the wheels and make up some slide rails and front winch mount platform. The work never stops.

I also have a Tamiya Hummer, but I need another radio to get that one running. Low dog on the totem pole right now.

zgray19 · 09-27-2010, 09:26 AM

I have been looking for some scalers to do some crawling with. Do you guys have a club or anything in this area, I live in Holland and it gets kinda boring crawling alone lol. Here is some pics of the rig

n8big · 09-27-2010, 12:20 PM

Nice Bronco!

Check out the WSM G2G planning/ chit- chat thread in the Michigan section, the pics of mine from above yours is from yesterday. So we try to get out once and a while. I live in Coopersville so not to far away I know sometimes they go down to Grand haven to the boardwalk and run.
Post up in there if you have any cool places to run in or near Holland.

Ramination · 10-01-2010, 10:41 AM

hey guys, just saw the thread and wanted to share mine too!

Just got a new body painted and mounted on it last week, no pictures though. Camera hit the pavement and now it doesn't work.

Will update with more recent pics with the new body as soon as the camera is working again!

Its pretty much stock, and built for mud and dirt opposed to rocks as you can see! Can't wait to add an SCX to the collection, more pics to come like I said!

Hey how do you like your creeper? it looks good

sweli · 10-04-2010, 04:26 AM

Like the rest of us, I see 'Ramination' found all the places in Kzoo (and Michigan) with rocks

n8big · 10-04-2010, 07:46 AM

Icemancrawler it is ok I just stripped the trans gears after I put a 1000kv brushless outrunner in it then put a 45 turn novak in the poof went the gears. Other than that I have got the FLM lockers for it. It would be a great beginner truck for the money but if I were to buy another one it would be another axial!
