Default Dravpnir tries to build something Mini Unlimited

I have been saving parts since I saw MRCrackhead's Mini Super thread.

Today I managed to make some shortened axle tubes, so I guess this project has started officially then

The C-hubs are some Chinese brand ones which splines do not match, so you get different caster on the same axle... But as I got no splines on the shortened tubes they will work fine.

I need to see if they work like this, otherwise I got 2 pairs of axle tubes left for a second try.




I also got a bunch of Exceed parts to make up the rest of the axles. I got some plastic gears somewhere too. I was thinking of running metal large gears in the front and plastic ones in the rear.




For shafts I will use some OFNA shafts that I need to figure something out how to connect them to the Exceed locker or a standard Berg locker. Reason I went with OFNA shafts is because I got 2 extra pairs of Dlux delrin knuckles after upgrading to aluminum ones on my super.
Wonder were I put the 4th shaft and the knuckle arms...




For the chassis I will make something out of a SuDu Pro, perhaps like Hitman did.

I got no date when I am going to finish this, so do not expect it to be a fast build.

You had the same problem with the pictures in the Super SuDu thread too, right? I do not know what it is I am sorry to say.

Do anyone else have problems seeing my pictures?

Nope can see them all - thankfully too because I got the same cases at home and been wondering what to do with them

What are those hubs for that are non 8* and have splines?

I think I will be a bit disappointed if you dont make a custom chassis! Not that its fair to put pressure on you but... you are such a great innovator that it would be a shame not to use your ideas to further this class. If its a problem with being 1 off and cost... let me know and I can see if I can help.

Those are actually normal 8* chubs for wraith/xr10. They are from TopCad I think the company is called.
