| My Little Tuber Tamiya Little Tuber Check it out: under construction http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics009.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics013.jpg FINISHED PRODUCT! http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics015.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics017.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics020.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...lerpics019.jpg Specs: Custom tube chassis(unfortunately not a Roc Joc!) TLT axles w/ wideners Junfac link mounts Park 400 Mamba 25 ESC Pede Tranny RC4wd alum narrow beadlocks/ Masher 2k's XTM shocks w/ Traxxas springs and Spectrun DX3 to top it off ! I'm running a 1100mah mini pack for now. Run time sux so I'm going to lipo. Had it on the rocks yesterday. everything works well, just have to work out a few brushless growing pains! I might rig up a front dig after I get the one on my "X" worked out. I see how good it really crawls at the SVSC comp this weekend ! Sorry for the photobucket links, but i can't figure out how to re-size my pics. |

It crawls pretty good. Need to work out the bugs with the sicc brushless. Sometimes reverse sometimes not. Then it will hesitate then take off like a rocket! I think it is the Mamba. Might switch to a quark. And torque twist is killin me. Besides that I love it. It's cool wheelin a 'little" rig. My other rig is huge!

Hey, great rig man, looks tough. Is it just me or does the cage need a coat of paint? Looks well planned, and all your weight is up front ... |

The paint was fresh. Them pics are just after one time on the rocks. I took the brushless out and put a lathe in. I won't have it working right before the comp. Just gotta switch some links around to fight torque twist.
