hi
 

thats sick, good job on your build

that looks sick love the yellow too

Did you tig weld your spider gears ? Or what gears did you tig ?

The spider gears to the housing, I love welding pot metal, call me crazy.

you like the moon buggy look huh. nice rig.

You are crazy,I hate welding pot metal, Did you use red 2% tungsten ?

edit* Your tuber looks awesome !

Yeah red, if you will set it for dc- but still use the pulse like you would for aluminum it actualy don't do that bad. I could never keep the red and the green straight so when I think of tig I think aluminum so green for go and red for stop, helps me anyway.

I thought red and green are the same pretty much just green is cheaper ? I dont know for sure what that I heard anyways. Man just like week or two ago, me and my co-worker went to buy some red 2% bought 2 boxs @ $76 ! I just about fell over when saw the price....

Green is for aluminum, you use it on ac for aluminum, you can use it for steel but it will leave a distorted color, red will contaminate and aluminum weld since it is ac.

where is the battery going???

all thats left is to mount all of the battery cells, 3 under the plate with all the electronics, 2 on the front axle, as for the last one I havent a clue


:flipoff:

Looks sweet man.

ahhh... i see.
i am using a 7cell 1200 rc18t pack on my comp truck due to smaller cells.

looks great man, got any pics of your whole did/brake system. also are you running all of those servos from one battery pack thru the moped or two with one reciever pack? didnt think that the moped could handle that much.

:shock: nice rig man, really like all your designs,
seems well thought out and clean.
on to the next build, right?

why build such a small cage?

Why Not? :idea:








Very nice Kamikaze!
It's gonna take some good driving & luck to beat your rigs in '07...

it looks very cramped in there, the electronics seem to be on top of each other, but each to there own i suppose
