SCX10 6x6 Build Hello, I have been on RCC for a few years now, I have not been very active... RCC has been a great resource for many off my builds! I figured I would toss up a short build thread on my 6x6! I am still unsure on what body I will be using... I have been eyeing the Redbull Dakar 6x6 support vehicle..... of course I will have a trailer behind it! http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psddo3emfp.jpg Chassis/Links: RCX 6x6 chassis vp 12.3 links 3rd axle links will be build once I receive the chassis! Wheels/Tires/Foams : 1.9 TSL with C.I.'s Deuce's Wild foams and 8 hole Axial beadlocks! Shocks: Proline power stroke scale shocks Motor/Esc Team Brood 35t Specter whatever esc I can find in the tool box! "thumbsup" Axle(s): All rebuilt with Avid bearings etc Center and rear are stock scx10 Front has overdrive gears Driveshafts: MIP It has been a slow start still waiting on the chassis but the center axle is all built just waiting on some lockouts, c hubs, and knuckles! Here are a few pictures on the progress enjoy! http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psve02xfxm.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psvllqceep.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps73kf7ioh.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psjai1qzpv.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psc3e0hi5g.jpg mock up with Ford Proline... http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psxcg7tko8.jpg |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build what parts did you use to modify the axles for front and rear output? |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Where did you get the RCX chassis from? Novaris..there are a couple write ups for doing the front and rear output on the axle. its actually really easy. Im not sure what search terms would bring up the right stuff, but its in here. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build The RCX chassis is from RCOFFROAD.EU --- http://www.fast-webshop.com/rcoffroa...hassis-RCX-6x6 Yes, there is a few write ups on it search 6x6 and im sure they will pop up. There is also a few youtubes on it. Basically its just two front diff housings and you just shave the little ridge on each and bolt them together very easy and simple! |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Hey your off to a great start man.I'm just looking at the center axle did you check to see if the drive shafts will be rotating in the same direction...I keep looking at it and just wondering how this is done..."thumbsup" |

Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Yes, just flip the rear axle. I could not find a US seller on the chassis, but I got it in about a week and it was only $8 shipping... not bad at all. Update: I received the chassis and I must say it is nice quality, and comes with all hardware! I got a handful of parts I ordered and got started mocking up the chassis,links, shocks etc. I will upload pictures of progress soon! |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Got some time to start mocking things up today started on some links for the third axle... still waiting on some more parts from USPS! Here are some pictures of the progress Any suggestions on ESC? I have had good luck with the FXR it will be on 3s with 35t Brood motor. http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psbuiohh7y.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psybh9eq5k.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...pst17bm9pb.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...pswa0wpmya.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psp351ppjh.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psnovzyztk.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psx2oh0ehk.jpg |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Nice. I'll use the same chassis for my 6x6. :) |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build I got a bit more done on the 6x6! but its rolling now"thumbsup" still mocking up stuff and waiting for some parts :roll: working on that third driveline which seems to be a bit tricky... but think im going to try the SDI driveline... still unsure on the body.... I like the Ford body but the back needs to be changed to fit the long chassis... here are a few pictures http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psqg9fyyxs.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps3i9zovwy.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...psjerln7k8.jpg http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/m...pstnbt0blo.jpg |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build For an idea on extending your cage search for the one Bender did a few years back. I think it is on here and Axial's website. Great looking 6x6, it is still on my bucket list.. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build That 6x6 chassis looks great, does it include de shock hoops? Here is the build from Bender, with the extended cage. (it was in my bookmarked sites). Axial Racing - Custom 6×6 SCX10 |
Yes, the chassis does come with shock hoops and hardware its a nice set up the chassis works well! I do like the extended cage... but I am thinking I really want to try the RedBull body.... it will test my patients thats for sure Update: I was able to get all my links and driveline made this weekend! "thumbsup" I am still going to order the SDI 4x4 driveline, but for now I went to the LHS and picked up a slash driveline cut it down and it seems to work good. I got the electronics set up today and ran it for a minute in the yard. Everything seemed to be smooth no binding! I will get some pictures of the links and driveline up! |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Oke looking forward for more pictures of your build. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Great post, I will have to follow up to see where your at later on. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Yes made some progress, I will post pictures soon. Working on the body and back half. Also working on doing the XR mod to the front axle for better steering. I will do forming the body and using a Ford body as well. We will see how it turn out once on the chassis. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Made a good amount of progress like I said. Adjusted the suspension, right now it has a Rockstar 530 Brushed motor but will be upgrading to a Brushless system for better wheel spin. |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build Any pictures? |
Re: SCX10 6x6 Build For some reason it wont let me post any pictures. Really strange. |
