THis is a 1 minute clip of my dad's and my modded emaxx's. We are both getting custom 4 link's and ditching the Indy suspension. THere is a sweet recovery at the end of this clip.

Looks like you could use some low gears and Hi Torque motors. I could never think of doing that with my t-maxx's.

I am running a 72 tooth spur and a 10 tooth pinion, and a 55 turn lathe motor. It has plenty of torque it is just me trying to get better with controling the throttle. It will actually crawl really slow.

I can't get the vid working but, are you still running twin packs? The truck should easily do walking pace if you mod the EVX to run one pack.

no single battery, it gets to a brisk walking speed enought to spin the wheels to get up any steep ledges. The video got pulled since no one downloaded it after 15 days. I need to make a new one with the new 4-link suspension. It does 100x better on the rocks.

Sal Servo Pinnacles be there or be square!! Bring the video camera and will get some killer tape...... Dean

Your video link is dead.

File Not Found.

donkeykong · « **Reply #8 on:** Mar 23, 2006, 01:39:19 PM »

Mike I know the vid isn't working. I have to find a better place to host the videos at, zshare deletes the file if it hasnt been view in 15 days. Dean, I will be in reedley all weekend, so if you want to go out there lets do it on saturday. I will bring the camera. Did you get new servo? My dad has to go tonight and pick one up for his.

4THEWKN · « **Reply #9 on:** Mar 24, 2006, 07:23:47 PM »

You boys are in trouble!!!! Been doing a little work on the chassis. Weight ratio in balance perfectly.

DTB · « **Reply #10 on:** Mar 24, 2006, 07:43:00 PM »

Nice looking rig man. somebody needs to start an RC crawler gallery (ah-hemmm) Did you make the chassis yourself?

I like your camo job.

So, how did it go at the Pinnacles?

Wish I coulda been there, but then maybe not

donkeykong · « **Reply #12 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 10:42:16 AM »

I should have video of yesterday up by tonight, including all the carnage...

4THEWKN · « **Reply #13 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 10:55:16 AM »

I broke front and rear pitman arms and one tierod end. No broke servos though.

4THEWKN's got some mad bucks stashed in that thing

If I can't defeat him at first, that's cool, I've only got a couple hundred in mine.
But what's really gonna SUCK CANAL WATER is when I kick his butt with a much cheaper machine ahahahahaha

4THEWKN · « **Reply #17 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 07:28:31 PM »

Mike if you DON'T beat my rig I would be really surprised. They are two completely different trucks. If you want to really test your skills build a shafty...Dean PS still thinking about building a Stick chassis.

You really have no idea what I'm doing do you

DTB · « **Reply #19 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 08:30:20 PM »

Are you building a Clod Mike?

BigMike · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 09:17:24 PM »

Already built

Just got to finish a couple things on it.

But I'm already building another one (not Clod)

It won't be ready until the Round Up though.

DTB · « **Reply #21 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 09:54:01 PM »

Right on. $Beer Chug\'n$

4THEWKN · « **Reply #22 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 10:40:20 PM »

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!! Get-r-done boy!!!!!!!!!!! Mike heads-up. Don't use plastic rod ends they don't last very long. After looking over the rig tonight I wasted FIVE. Looking for steel or alloy right now.

BigMike · « **Reply #23 on:** Mar 27, 2006, 11:19:47 PM »

The problem is that your RC wheels like a Full Size Chevy Blazer and my RC wheels like a Triple Marlin Crawler Truggy!

I thought these seemed sufficient for mine.

They're 1 cm rod ends. What are you guys using?

BigMike · « **Reply #25 on:** Mar 28, 2006, 12:10:32 AM »

That guy on the left is mighty beefy! mmmmm

I am just using the Traxxas ends that you have on the right, drilled out to 6/32 on one piece solid aluminum rods built in the lathe. For what I am going to be doing, I really don't think I'll be breaking them.

I could have got the 380 torque servos for like $6 more, but I just went with the 200 torque ones because I didn't want to be breaking parts.

Dean, I heard you are running the 450 in-oz torque servors that are standard size and cost $115 EACH!!

That's damn sexy but far to rich for my blood

Yea, if they're the robot servos , you have to buy a programmer to set the E.P.A.'s (end-point adjustments) on the servo swing and some other settings . It costs like $150 for the programmer!

DTB · « **Reply #27 on:** Mar 28, 2006, 12:20:14 AM »

Are you going to run a servo saver, Mike?

BigMike · « **Reply #28 on:** Mar 28, 2006, 07:32:02 AM »

No, I definately will not need it with my setup.

The bigger the rig the bigger the rocks!! I really digging the scale 2.2 trucks. If were going to have a all out comp we should go that way. It would really test building and driving skills.
