Hello rc reasers - 01.08.2010, 04:31 AM

Hello grupe
excuse my bad english, hope it goes
My rc career began with a Traxxas Emax, which quickly broke in half
bought a used GorillaMaxx, but thought it was too high and too easily overturned
I have so even tried to make a chasi and a gear case that is lower and more durable
and here she is still under development

I call it a Madsen Maxx

It would be cool to lay the tranny down on its side and mount the motor flat on the chassis.

Nice cnc work there. Did you do it yourself? What are you running for a power plant?

I can answer about the power plant. It is a Hobbywing ezrun 2350 combo.

Madsen please correct me if I am wrong.

That is definately awesome work on the chassis, and tranny in particular. If I had my way, the tranny wouldnt have an idler gear as you just dont need it with BL powered vehicles- swap 2 wires around and the motor spins the other way, so no need for the idler. If you have your own cnc machine at home/ unlimited access to it, Im sure plenty of folks here will want to make good friends with you, me included...

Was thinking the same Neil. He only needs the idler for spacing to provide spur clearance, but if he channeled/notched the chassis for the spur he could drop the motor down the same amount as the idler diameter and eliminate it.

Very nice work Madsen

I have thought about removing the center gear wheel
but then you have to use bigger pinon and less spun gear Due to space
And no, I do not have a CNC, it is the job I have access to a cnc
and 24 hours is not enough hours :-) to do something for other people I am sorry
If you lay the tranny down on its side and mount the motor flat on the chassis
disappear my idea that everything must be installed in the center to keep the car in balance
engine in the center and 2 power pack one in each side
