Takedown 12.26.2008 03:19 PM

Good news! Will be ordering the batts here anytime now. It is officially able to run once I get ahold of all the things I ordered.

BL_RV0 12.26.2008 03:23 PM

Cool. Hurry up! :lol:

Takedown 12.26.2008 03:29 PM

Im going as fast as I can. The ESC still hasnt been shipped out yet.

Metallover 12.26.2008 03:47 PM

Link to batteries?

_paralyzed_ 12.26.2008 04:57 PM

i'm pretty sure plows should be wider than the wheelbase. i'm no rocket surgeon, but that's how we did it on the farm.............

Takedown 12.26.2008 06:45 PM

Its a stretched MT though...:lol:

_paralyzed_ 12.26.2008 06:52 PM

good point! I meant track width, not wheelbase. D'oh!:lol:

Takedown 12.26.2008 06:52 PM

Takedown 12.26.2008 10:43 PM

Just checked tracking on usps for the sprokets/chain and they will most definately be here tommoro. More pics are coming!

Takedown 12.27.2008 09:40 PM

Stuff arrived today and everything was installed! Dont have the camera at the moment but will tommoro thankfully. Ill get them posted then... But my main concern is with the ESC. It still hasnt been shipped out. Im about to send them an e-mail asking whats taking so long...

Metallover 12.30.2008 01:11 AM

I wanna see how the batteries are going to fit in there.

Hi Takedown! Quite the collection you have there! That truck is bad ass! I live near madison and I just bought a carpet truck. Do you race at MARCCA or RCP???

Takedown 12.30.2008 04:01 PM

Hey thanks for the nice compliments Feista! Im not much into racing right now. The only truck i have that would sort of suite the job is my brushless evader which isnt all that great of a truck if you ask me. I wasnt able to get the e-warhead in the pic because it kinda met its maker, "a long drop into a hard snow bank".:lol:

Takedown 01.03.2009 05:15 PM

Ok guys good news. I was finally able to upload the pics of the 2 sprokets and chain installed onto the truck...

Metallover 01.03.2009 05:18 PM

Sweet! Now all you need is an esc, right? Or are the batteries still on order too?

Takedown 01.03.2009 05:20 PM

Batteries I still need to figure out what I want yet... The esc still needs to be shipped from astroflight. I sure hope they ship it soon....

Takedown 01.07.2009 07:34 PM

More good news. Astro finally shipped out the 204d esc! It should be here tommoro. More pics and updates of how it runs in testing will be added.

Takedown 01.08.2009 10:27 PM

Finally got the esc today... Inastalled it and test ran it about 30mins ago on a fully charged 18v drill pack for a demo. On 18v Im quite impressed. It fishtails with ease and gets up to speed very quickly. The mech brakes and everything are working flawlessly. The ESC is running cold and the batts are aswell. I plan to double up that pack from 18v to 36v in a few days. In the meantime, here are some pics...



And ya I have no clue what that yellow stuff is on the tire. Just showed up in the pic.

Looks great! Can't wait for a vid!

Takedown 01.08.2009 10:32 PM

Thanks trev. I am looking forward to trying it on 36v.

_paralyzed_ 01.08.2009 10:39 PM

pics on post 222 show only a rear driveshaft. Did you reinstall it and keep 4wd? Awesome build! Any chain noise?

Metallover 01.08.2009 10:41 PM

I can't wait to see it either. Looking nice. what connectors are those on the battery? You plan on using those for the PB batteries?

Takedown 01.08.2009 10:44 PM

Ya its RWD for now. Very fun indeed. The 4wd upgrade kit is the next thing on my "to get" list. The connectors are astroflight.

Isn't it RWD? I don't think its meant for 4wd.

Takedown 01.08.2009 10:45 PM

And ya it doesnt make much if at all any chain noise that is noticable.

Krawlin 01.08.2009 11:09 PM

2 words...... FRIGGIN AWESOME!!!

Cant wait to see a video of that thing on 36volts. Looks great man!

Takedown 01.08.2009 11:11 PM

Haha thanks chris.
