Titanium Wing Mount Towers
I sent off a few emails to moderators for this forum, can someone please contact me about advertising?
http://www.duhengineering.com/rc/img..._towers_01.jpg I made these for my Proline T-maxx/Dominator Hybrid and then realised they should work on a G-maxx!!! I would like to give a set of these away to a deserving member for review, photos, testing, more photos, and promotion. Who has the hottest Gmaxx on the site? If G-maxxers don't run run wings, please say so. |
You'll want to speak with RC-MONSTERMIKE, I'd suspect an E-mail is in order for him. Gmaxxs can and do run wings if they have the towers to accomodate them.
Oh yea' Welcome to the forums. Seen your threads over at UE, as you have been developing these. Good luck!:cool: |
Just sent an email straight to him....
|
That would be the way to go.
|
Try again, 0700. I didn't get any e-mails regarding the shock tower! Try mike@rc-monster.com
Oh, and send a set my way while your at it! :) I currently use the nova hybrid towers, but am looking for a tower with more/different shock mount holes(UE shocks are too long to use these towers effectively on a g-maxx with UE suspension). Also, why not simplify the set and only offer the ones with the wing mount? Then, you only have one part to produce. The wing mount won't hurt anything in the front, either. |
Those towers see too low for UE shocks? it looks like it is going to be higher as with the UE towers?
|
These towers are definately shorter than the UE towers. That is the point of them, actually. Keeps the body mounted lower(covers the cells on a g-maxx, or the motor/electronincs on a dominator or similar nitro truck). The UE shocks are long, though, and need a [plae to mount them a little higfher than the Nova Rc towers, or a little further in. They work AWESOME with big bores, though(Traxxas shocks).
|
Yeah, those bigbores are pretty good, i'm hearing good things about them.
Would these keep the arms about horizontal when looked from the front/rear to the truck? do the UE springs fit those shocks? |
There are two sets of towers "Regular" and "Short", both are made for UE shocks, but for different bulks or arms.
http://www.duhengineering.com/rc/img/SM_towers_01.jpghttp://www.duhengineering.com/rc/img..._towers_01.jpg You would use Regular on any maxx with maxx style arms. You would use Short on the tall Proline Dom Hybrid bulks. You would use Short with G-maxx arms. I wanted a matching front tower without wing mount holes for looks and weight :) As long as they sell it won't matter that there are 4 parts instead of two :W: UE springs do not fit big bores, but lundsford do. |
what is the big advantage of these over the UE's? (exept for the wing mount?)
|
The wing mount IS the big advantage.
They are much lighter than other wing mount maxx towers. The wing is much lower than other wing mount maxx towers. Nobody alse makes wing mount hybrid or Gmaxx towers. And most of all they match my ti skids and chassis!!!!!! :Love: :Love: :Love: :Love: :Love: |
LOL!
got pics of that skid/chassis? |
I'm using the HCR small block pro chassis and skids, but want to move to VBS-Towerless-Ti skids
|
okay, cool! you allready got the VBS towerless?
|
No I "WANT" them :C:
Just missed a set in the UE BST for $360 :cry http://www.unlimitedengineering.com/...0/PICT3002.JPG |
With diffs? that is a bargain!!
|
Wow, where did you get the invisible chassis from? :eek:
The towers look really good, can I ask, how do wings attach to them? Any example pictures? |
I knowwwwww!!!
Did you see the $300 UE Titanium 8mm CVDs some LUCKY arse got!!!! Idiot http://i9.ebayimg.com/02/i/05/54/3d/40_1.JPG That's the new "Stupid light Wonder Woman Chassis" Tower post or Tower BIN site |
not that superbargain as those VBS's.. the 8mm's are 430, incl the daces
|
Log into ebay and you'll see he paid $85 for the Ti 8mm w/o dace :cry
|
That is another freaking bargain.. :D
|
And the shorties....

I would be interested in a set of those short ones.
|
|
My GMaxx is not too sick, and it's not shiny anymore ;)
I think I buy a set, though. I will ask Mike if he can order a set for me, he's my oversea agent. (once a month a big box, saves shipping costs) |
Depends on the size of your container Daniel...
|
:D Yeah, Rene, you got it right. Gotta keep them airlines bu-sy!
And I permanently rent a patch of one particular basement ;) |
Has anyone bought or tested these yet? they are very interesting. wouldn't mind a set for my future racer.
|
Mikes gonna get a pair and test them out.
|
0700 I went to your web site the stuff you make looks incredable.
|
Yes, i agree, but it looks a little, pricey, but than again, what isnt?
|
yeah 0700! respect for what you make!

Yes, i know, thats right , it does cost, and quality is the # 1 quality coster:p , look at UE, their suspension is over 500$ and there is not even that much aluminum. But than again it is made out of T-7075 aluminum , but still.
|
and for 440 dollars you get 4 knuckles and the shocktowers too.. and titanium hingepins etc etc.. I think UE is relative fair priced..
If you buy a set of gmaxx arms (6061), and you want to buy a set of UE knuckles to make them complete, you lost about the same amount of money.. All and all, i think UE has got a desent price. |
Yeah titanium is 4-5x normal price right now, so the things I make are pricey even after I discount them...
|
I'm very impressed your products they look incredable.
|
i also , think your products look amazing, great job, now i wonder if they can take a beating?
|
Too bad their mostly OFNA...If I sold Revo stuff I'd be rich..
