Trev's Snowmobile
 
Thought it should be placed here.

So far,
Dtx intellispeed Forward only esc
Titan 12t (Tough motor, been in a pede, revo 3.3 and now a sled)
TQ Radio
7 Cell ni-mh
Cut windsheld

Getting repainted tomorrow

So far, its running flaw less, turning could be a little tighter, but i know what the problem is and i'll fix it tomorrow. For a total of 5 hours of gluing and such. Im happy with the turn out, because a revo with hole shots can't make it threw powder.

Where did you get that thing? I want one, as long as its cheap. Looks like it was easy to mod as well.

trev3813 01.19.2009 12:26 AM

I got mine at wal mart 2 yrs ago

Awsome thanks for posting. Thats a headlight man I need that im jealous, its a friggin walmart special, looks about as nice as mine. Im going to freak mine out .. I have to get the video cam from my neice so you see this thing on 4800kv losi on 3s its funny so fast its a joke, the lipo puffs huge in seconds. later plans are a 2750 1512 or 09 on 4s with a MM or maybe a boat controller as it doesnt seem to need brakes

trev3813 01.19.2009 01:54 PM

Ah, nicee, nah, really don't need brakes. In the real world, you don't use brakes alot on real sleds.

just have to come up with a drive system

PedeBasher 01.25.2009 09:36 PM

WOW! I have that same yellow ski! I was pondering how to make it faster and more responsive. You pretty much solved my problems! Now I just need to open mine up.

Looks great though! Is the yellow ski the same as the red one, at least on the inside?

trev3813 01.25.2009 10:03 PM

Yup, both the same, just different colors.

PedeBasher 01.25.2009 10:13 PM

Sweet. I was scared to hack into mine but I pretty much can see how you did it. Maybe I will try mine later tonight and throw my SW in.

traxxasrevony 01.25.2009 10:30 PM

whatever you do try not to trash the stock gear case. thats the easiest way to get power to the track. i modded the track drivers tho so the track wouldnt skip anymore. so i new the stock gear drive would fail. now i have to come up with a custom drive setup witch is going to be hard to do.

PedeBasher 01.26.2009 09:19 PM

How did you get your tranny out? Ive been messing with mine and i cant get to some screws.

traxxasrevony 01.26.2009 10:40 PM

i dont remember lol. i took this apart a longgggg time ago. got any pics of the ones your having trouble with? or how far you got?

PedeBasher 01.26.2009 11:20 PM

Well to both trev and traxxas, i got everything but the gear cover off. Thats what I am stuck on. I will try to get pics but I really dont want to hi jack trev's thread.

Anyway, trev we will have to race. Mine is gana be lipo and brushless (yay).:intello:

traxxasrevony 01.27.2009 12:02 AM

im sure trev wouldnt mind. afterall this is the project x thread and how can you make a project x if you cant get it apart.

there should be three tabs around the gear case warm the tabs up with a blow dryer and carfully take it apart. i saw warm it so the tabs dont snap.

trev3813 01.28.2009 05:40 PM

Yeah, post up some pics, i'd be glad to help.
