Trev's Snowmobile

[trev3813]

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.

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]

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

heres the progress ive made on mine so far.











just have to come up with a drive system

[PedeBasher]

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]

Yup, both the same, just different colors.

[PedeBasher]

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]

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]

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

[traxxasrevony]

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]

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).

[traxxasrevony]

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]

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