well here is my stick completely done for now. Soon i will be narrowing and slamming the body. These tires are for show and playing. i have Moabs for comps. Hope to get some action shots tomorrow.

kevinlongisland · 05-21-2005, 11:28 PM

nice rigs guys! boner, damn thats one reduced body! nice work.

xtremerc, nice rig. Are you running magnetic mayhems? any clearance issues with the links? are you running adjustable motor mounts?

boner · 05-22-2005, 09:29 AM

here are some pics of my rear servo that I took last night

Xtreme RC · 05-22-2005, 09:41 AM

yeah i am running the mayhems. I personnaly love them. I ran them in my gecko at the green River comp a cfew weeks ago and took 3rd. They have plenty or torque with 9t pinions but give me good wheel speed which i like. That was with a 6 cell. Now in the stick they are almost two fast with the 11.1 lipoly. This thing probably runs 10mph. It is balistic, considering it is suspose to be a rock crawler. LOL. I will probably go back to lathes now that i am using the lithiums. Not sure.

But yes i had to bend both the links to clear the motors. I am using the TTR motor mounts but still had to bend the links. works good though and doesn't effect anything. I used 2 spacers on each side to help extend the links out from the chassis. Here are some pics

kevinlongisland · 05-22-2005, 08:34 PM

xtremerc, thanks for the info.

boner · 05-23-2005, 08:48 PM

Here are some pics of my 2.2

kevinlongisland · 05-23-2005, 09:02 PM

here they are loading in full size. easier to view. I like the look. Thats one of my favorite bodies, the land cruiser.

grayman · 05-30-2005, 02:44 AM

hi there, just to share some pics of my crawler ..

hope u guys like it.. needs bigger wheels though, the diff cases are getting pretty hung up with these 2.2's..

EeePee · 05-30-2005, 02:12 PM

I like it!

What batteries?

grayman · 05-30-2005, 11:09 PM

Thanks!

Right now, the batteries are just Sanyo 3000s, very old cells, >3yrs, v bad run time

. was saddle packed, now I just stacked them .. need to get new cells tho.. run time with the old cells were abt 20~25mins..

grayman · 05-30-2005, 11:16 PM

Chassis: TCS Xtreme Comp
WB: 16"
Motors: Integy Lathe 55T
Pinions: 10T(Front)/9T(Rear)
Servos: Airtronics ERG-VB (13.0kg torgue)
ESC: Super Rooster
Radio: Hitec Laser 6 (for independent steering)
Wheels: Imex 2.2 All-T's
Rims: HPI 5 Star deep dish
Body: HPI Rubicon Jeep (hacked up) with Roll bar/lights from an old basher truck
Others: Servo savers with BTA steering in front

The lathe motors are giving so much torque, they are causing the brass hexes to spin in their rims.... :neutral: hope the RPM stablemaxx i ordered have a stronger hex area..

EeePee · 06-02-2005, 10:44 PM

I'll keep posting...

Tire change.

I know you guys have more pictures!

kevinlongisland · 06-02-2005, 11:01 PM

Very nice photos, they'll have to go up on the site! I like the giant tracs on the stablemaxx rims, looks good. And i just love the look of these trucks now with the behind that axle steering. Cleans up the front end and makes it look more aggresive.

syco133 · 06-26-2005, 11:11 PM

I figured it was time to add my pics also to the mix.

kevinlongisland · 06-27-2005, 09:07 PM

Syco133, looks good. Thanks for posting up some pictures. Good luck at the comp and kick some butt!

ratmloud · 06-29-2005, 04:59 AM

Eeepee- sweet truck! looks badass!

likes2crawl- thats a dodge powerwagon body, it fits the stick great, I just wish I had painted it a different color.

Kevin- I love the behind the axle steering also, looks way better up front (makes truck meaner looking) and it's easy to do on a stick chassis!

I had to sell my stick awhile back due to cash problems, but things are looking up and I may be getting back in to crawling soon...if so I will prob. be in touch for another stick.

as a matter of fact how much would the total be for a stick chassis with steering, comp. clod axles, and a tq3 modded cost? (hook a brother up a little if I buy all at once?) PM me when you get a chance.

kevinlongisland · 06-29-2005, 08:38 PM

Cool man thanks!

Body trim, and a wheel change picture.

kevinlongisland · 07-03-2005, 12:25 PM

that's exactly where i trimmed my body. although i mounted it lower, the sides hang below the chassis. I'll probably raise mine back up some.

what rims are those? Looking good man.

My BTA steering was giving me fits today. I might have to switch it back to the front too. But i'm working on improving the BTA setup.
