Anyone make a working snow plow yet?

[Zuk Jr.]

I know there are a few pic's of people that had made a snow plow for the 1/6th, but I want to make one that moved up and down so you can get into the snow a bit more then if it was just "hard" mounted to the front axle of the Nylint.

Anyone know how to or have done it yet?? I know you can add some weight to the truck, and it would move the snow well. I know this because my front axle acted like a plow when the snow was deep and I was fart'n around with it outside. Would be nice to just sit inside sip some hot coco and get the sidewalk plowed!

if you wanted to you could rig up a winch and do it that way

use a winch ad a spring so mething like a spring from a clothes peg or something similar then a inch to lift it up

I plow all the time with my Clod I mounted the blade to the front axel and use the 3rd channel of my remote to lower and raise the plow works awesome!!!

for tmaxx and emaxx but im sure can be adapted easily.. rather pricey though!!


just build your own using some sheet steel and a servo. you will prolly need a 3 channel though unless you rig it on 2 channel to raise in reverse and lower when going forward

I think traction in that stuff would be a huge issue.
