4u2nv · 12-18-2006, 03:37 PM

Add one more to the list..........

Where'd you get that f-350 body from? Was there a buildup thread on that truck? I'd like to see more of it.

dankycrawler · 12-18-2006, 03:48 PM

thanks for the replies.

the body is from what I remember was some kind of toys r us lowrider hopping kids toy. i got two of em. they were sitting around forever until I found out the were it was such a good fit on the cc-01. It also has bed rail caps and headlight lenses w/ full working lights I have yet to put back on it... I didnt even wait to finish painting it to take it out. Ill have a vid up soon im working on it now Ill post a link here to the vid of it.

4u2nv · 12-18-2006, 03:53 PM

That would make such a nice work truck. Throw a scale
trac rac on there, some 2x4's in the bed and you'll be all set. Maybe an enclosed trailer to tow behind it. Man I want one now!

Excellent job on the video.... Nice and clear.

andres-tavares · 12-18-2006, 05:23 PM

very cool rigs!!!

cool video

questions

brusier question

how the moabs work on the gravel-mud??

xc questions

what esc are you running?
did you waterproofed the reciever and the servo??

thanks

dankycrawler · 12-18-2006, 05:29 PM

Definetly not as well as mashers did. they are more suited for the rocks for sure. But they did alright. I run em nice n soft w/ geolander foams in them.

the xc has a lrp runner fully waterproof esc. but I have it inside a plastic box w/ the reciver inside of a ballon. and the servo is in a ballon aswell. you can run this thing all the way underwater as you probablly saw in the vid. no problems at the end of the day i ran another pack in it when I got home in my backyard it didnt glitch at all.

sloppy · 12-18-2006, 05:47 PM

so how does that body compare to a tamiya f350 smaller?

andres-tavares · 12-18-2006, 05:51 PM

thanks

yeah i saw the video its amazing

now how do you put the servo on a ballon?............a mean how the servo can turn inside the ballon??

can you post pics??

thanks

ILoveRCRockCrawlin · 12-18-2006, 06:00 PM

WOW! I had to stare at that first pic for a min to determine if it was a real Ford or rc. Nice vid!

dankycrawler · 12-18-2006, 06:03 PM

yeah the f-350 body is quite a bit smaller thank the Tam one.

mudrinner4ever · 12-18-2006, 06:09 PM

very kool!!!! were you actually getting stuc or high centreded on in the mud? if you were getting stuck, thats some soupy stuff! but then again it didnt look like thoughs tires cleared out that well!

very kool vid! nothin like a kick a$$ mud video!

Cloak · 12-18-2006, 06:10 PM

Pretty cool. That would have looked a lot better low to the ground, although you'd have to watch for the mud on the camera.

dankycrawler · 12-18-2006, 06:11 PM

Ill post pics up as soon as I get home of the balloons. I pretty much balloned the servo then attached the servo arm over the top after I had streched it tight over the exposed gear. at first I didnt think it would work but it does so far with no issues.
