It only got a little air last night, didn't want to push it hard with a crappy suspension setup on its maiden voyage

. But the rear was bouncing a lot causing it to roll. Thinner shock oil will fix that.
Find a machinist and I'll sell you the design at MAP

Awesome work man!

I think we should be serious about this project of the year thing. If someone makes a thread and then everyone can enter their projects that they finished this year. We vote for top ten. Anyone like/dislike the idea?

Sounds good to me.

Hands down though Shaun wins with the battletruck...

In a head-to-head battle, he would definitely win because I would default

.

Today I will design/install a chassis-mounted rear sway bar which will help handling even more - should drastically reduce chassis torque twist, greatly improve cornering, and best of all will reduce body roll. The mounting of it will be similar to how many real trucks do it.

I appreciate all the comments, guys!

Thats some amazing work you've done Travis. I am curious how it will compare to a Slash... Do you plan on racing it at OCRC in the Slash class? Looking forward to seeing it in person soon.

MetalMan · 11.30.2008, 11:53 PM

I'm sure OCRC wouldn't let me race it in stock Slash class. It would hand stock Slash's their asses... This could go in the mod Slash class, though, which is more of a run-what-you-brung type class from what I have been told.

bl-is-future · 12.01.2008, 12:13 PM

I posted a project of the year thread. If you want to enter your truck MM just tell me or post on the thread - http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...857#post237857

If anyone else want to enter their project they can too.

Dagger Thrasher · 12.01.2008, 06:51 PM

Whoa...that looks amazing! Your chassis design is a work of art, and you've really nailed the scale aspect. The detail you've put into the mechanics, too...man. I love builds like this! the functional fans in the bodyshell are a great touch. I just can't wait to see it once you've taken the polycarb's protective film off; it's gonna gleam.

Stunning work, and an example of a true custom build.

BrianG · 12.01.2008, 06:58 PM

Man, it's been a while since I've checked up on this thread! That is way cool. Although, I wouldn't want to drive it! It would be sitting pretty on a hutch of some kind with multicolored LEDs that shift colors shining through various points to really showcase that polycarb!
