BC-Brian's MOW in Real life, Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy It is time to unleash my insanity on an unexpecting world! :twisted: https://s25.postimg.org/bqz6viyqn/MOW-_Castle_sm.jpg Click here for High Res I have been working on the idea of a MOW (motor on wheel) rig off and on for the last two years. It has gone through two major designs but with the incarnation of the Unlimited class it freed up some possibilities. I decided this must be built for Worlds 2015 in Vegas. If you are coming to worlds you will get the first chance to see this creation. I will post a lot more details when I return from worlds. A very special thank you to Castle Creations who supplied me with several brand new Mamba Micro X Controllers, you guys rule. And to Krazed Builds for some last minute carbon fiber sexyness. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy :shock: I can't wait to fondle this at Worlds....... |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy You F'n Crazy brah!!! :) It's been a little while since sneak peaks of gears laying in a wheel, now a full built rig.. (Insert, mind blown, emoji) ;) Always bringing some bad ass Innovations to the table! Congrats bro! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy I met with Robbob Saturday morning to pick up some CF pieces. He got to see it run for the first time and me all giddy. Put the last screw in it at 6:22am, slept for 3 hours and drove to Connecticut. I was all sorts of sleep deprived but I still had a sh!t eating grin from ear to ear watching it go for the first time. "thumbsup" |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy That's fk'n awesome bud! Now you just made a whole new class! Can't wait to see this thing in action and how much more control you have with being able to control one tire at a time. I guess you'd need a stick radio to see full potential of this beautiful beast! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Awesome! I was hoping there were going to be others in the 16" class... maybe it will be bigger than the 12" class though.... Courses should be interesting and the thing that sets all apart. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Yea, It looks like there are all 2 of us competing in the 16" Unlimited Class Erik :p |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy they do have flash for cameras 8) hard to see anything in all that darkness. I guess building up the tension is all for the good good luck with your progeny |

Yea I wanted the high contrast and low detail to leave a little mystery for those who are going to see it in person this weekend. After worlds I will supply lots of photos and details on the build. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy WOW!! Can't wait to see this in person! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy I won't catch this at worlds but I'm looking forward to some details. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Cool stuff man! Bring your red T we'll wanna get a photo with all our sponsors! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy very cool. Ready to see some more pictures! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy If I have learned anything over the years it is this, "If you have a cool truck you want people to look at you have to paint it pink, add color changing glitter for extra effect!" https://s25.postimg.org/emca2e2qn/MOW_Housings_Pink.jpg |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Tried to pm. I'll have your shirt on Saturday |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy now you are teasing. the one you made has 4ws but you will also have a 2ws option available? and it looks like the motor is part of the knuckle, so to speak, so it turns with the wheel when you make a turn. this is a super right? 7.5 - 8.0 inch tires? looks like there will be enough room to have a few gear combos in there, one on the motor and one the stub axle. no universals mmmmmmm clever. good job on the 3d printer. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy 2WS would be much easier, just create a lockout that mounts to the axle tube and procludes rotation in the knuckle joint. It is a 16" unlimited rig, not a Super. It has stock Voodoo's on a 2.2/3.0 short course wheel. The motor and all the gearing are tucked inside the wheel. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy thanks hard to get the details from the available pictures, have to use my minds eye. when you get back from worlds, don't forget that the 14th is my birthday so I am expecting a set of the motor/gearbox/knuckles. I already have 4 sidewinders looking for a build enjoy |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy It's about time you show this off! After years of wanting to make it happen, it finally lives! Wait until people get a load of what they don't see in the pics...lol!:shock:"thumbsup" |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Woah!:shock: |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy wish I could see the look on everyones face when they actually see this thing .... I really had no words for it when I did. Just amazing actually seeing it done. Now we just have to wait for the rest of the industry to catch up lol. Way to up the bar Brian!! And the new Castles look VERY interesting! |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy You home from worlds yet? ..... Sucks to be sitting at home waiting for you to get back so I can see pics of it |

Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Wow. I want to see this in action! What's next, some type of gravity drive for increased down force???? |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Yeah pics on here aren't showing up for me but I'm using tapatalk so that might be why... |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy got lots more pics today, Wil get then online when I get home, trying to do it with my cell phone is to frustrating :p It ran great today. Was able to confirm the fan works on sidehill and steep vertical. Did I mention it is a quick little bugger. |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy That pink is fyaaaahhhhh Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy Love it! "thumbsup" desperately awaiting video... |
Re: BC-Brian's Real life Unlimited MOW with a dash of something crazy This thing was silly cool. Lots of thought went into the gear boxes (especially the pink, HAHAHA). Over the turbine it needs independent 4ws. Brian you got 18 channels on that thing you might as well use'em |
