| Rc trophy truck
i sent to traxxas an idea for a rc trophy truck called Desert Maxx. it would have a full roll cage/chassis. front A-arms upper and lower. rear trailing arm. in front 1 coilover shock. same other side. in the rear there is a mount behind the cab for 2 shocks that would also attach to the trailing arm. 1 bypass and 1 coilover.other side the same. velenion brushless system. just 2 wd. rear bumpstops aswell. a tire mount for 2 tires.(tires and rims inc.) beadlock rims. scale BFGoodrich Baja T/As. sorry i have no pics. i drew it. but otherwise its pretty beffy for stock. |

Is Traxxas considering your idea, did they mention they were going to move forward on your idea?

I doubt Traxxas will consider. Cool idea sounds awesome but its not a traxxas thing. |

| The best way to get this truck build ... is if you do it your self 'Cos Traxxas won't Morten |

Even if they did prototype it,you wouldnt get credit.Like Snoopmax said,build it yourself and then you know you would have a one of a kind R/C.

yeah i had the mini trophy i didnt care for it the suspension travel was little to none and i just had lots of probs with it and its very narrow too..it looks cool that abt it but i want some thing with a solid rear axle with some nice working suspension to soak up some good bumps/jumps the rc4wd hardcore slash chassis looks mint!!!!

ive driven the mini trophy and the suspention is fine but i think it should've been straight axle. not a independant suspention trailing arm.maybe ill draw up some more pics and sent it to HPI or Losi....... |

| You have seen pics of the real truck the Mini Trophy is modeled after correct? The one that has IRS with trailing arms...
