BL muggy! - 06.06.2007, 02:59 PM

well after seeing no mods e muggy, i NEED one, its just what im lookin for!

its a monster truck, but its SOOOOO simple, i an def bash it. i can get rpm

stuff so its tougher if needed, im pretty shure the diffs are tough...


now i NEED torque lol, i want to run atleast 4s, prob 5 or 6 with the r1mt, or

mmm, i think a neu, but if the cogging isnt fixed i will lmt it, but i think its

lmt that has loong cs and all that, and neu are quick to get... i think caps, and

hardwired stuff will be fine tho...i want to do bask flips (i want MASSIVE

POWER) its a big truck, and i wan this thing to just have so much power im

scared to drive it lol, thats my dream basher.... prob have mike make a

motor mount.. and thats about it really isnt it?


so to sum that up, what motor, what lipos, what gearing?


thanks!

You sure the Muggy is the right candidate for backflips, etc? It is super heavy.

I would talk to AAngel about gearing. He said he ran 9 with a 5s I believe as 10 would cog it. He then sold it, and I believe that's it.

I know that, but what's the point of having a heavy truck with a center diff if you want it to be agaile and have a locked center diff.

EDIT: NM, I thought you meant in air flips. My bad. GL with it!

I almost bought a Muggy last week. Great truck, but like supralover said...it's a heavy truck 11.5 - 12 Lbs. A REVO 3.3 is 9.8 Lbs. A Jammin CRT is 9.25 Lbs.

Because a heavy truck strains it's parts more, is harder to get moving, will make your elecs. heavier. My point/what I was trying to say was there is no point in getting the muggy with center diff when you could get an LST which is a better basher with no center diff, and there are SO many other choices. There's a reason you don't see many E-muggies. It's just not that good of a truck.

haha thats funny.... u would really know that a muggy is no good... because u have had one? driven one?

u lock the center diff, then u dont needs a hundred tranny gears, just one center diff, and i will lock it, takes less space is simplified..

and harder to get moving, thats why theres more then one size motor....uu build ur jammim, i build this and were all happy

Yes, I've driven one, yes, I've talked to someone who worked for Losi, yes, I've read countless threads on it, yes, it's known there are many problems. I was going to purchase one instead of an MGT but read/experienced it. I wasn't trying to burst your bubble I was just trying to give you some knolege.:032:

well look at the post under urs...... anyone who has really track driven one or so would say so........i know what i want, its not to big, not to heavy, its just rite, u cant bash a buggy worth crap, nor a truggy compared to this thing.. same drivetrain, just LOTS higher up... belive me, if a buggy had the same ground clearence id take that, but im bashing this

Just want to say that buggy's can bash very well. My Xterminator for example, doesn't handle all that great, nor was it designed to race or be on a track. It was designed for the basher, just like the current XT2.

I don't know about any problems with it, as I have never experienced it, but it looks to be a fairly straight forward conversion, and should be a nice basher, as well as an occasional racer.

Good luck.
