I had to use an old TQ3 receiver and radio. I decased the receiver to fit.
The DIG.
Used shocks in droop with no springs. I added the hair ties to act as resistance. My 7 year old thinks she owns it cause she donated them.
I used a sidewinder micro esc set up for brushed motors. I am running a 90t Getbent motor. So sad to hear he isn't doing them now...i hope things work out so he does. The motor is almost perfect. I was just ready to have him make me a 100t.
I am not completely satisfied with the side plates or the last minute hood. It is my first one though and now that I got the welding and bending down i plan on building more. (and one for a stock wheel-base set-up too)
The QLO's have about 75bb's in each front tire and 40 in each rear. Total weight of the rig is just over 1 pound.
Custom steering links.
Just the frame...coat hangers are fun to work with!
As always...a flex shot.
So far I like this one alot. I was just so tired of bodies. Next step is a 4 channel one where i can do a 4 wheel steer and dig...the rig will have to be a little bigger to fit a bigger battery inside the frame. I also plan on trying out a bigger can motor. I love a challenge.
