Nitroholic Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 If you take the wing off ...what are you going to use for a wheelie bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodgemonkey Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 This thing could actually do with a wheelie bar now though. You guys saw how easy the car would lift the front wheels and that was with no shock oil in the rear and rubbish batteries! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnetbasher Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 really easy to make one for a truggy....nylon rod bolted onto the rear shock tower with a plane wheel on it. or you could learn throttle control.....so....wheelie bar it is !

bodgemonkey Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 So erm.....yeah this is going to happen. Just doing some basic sketches to makes some adaptors for FG wheels to bolt onto 8mm axles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodgemonkey Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Bored the centres of the wheels out to 12mm, getting some hexes made up so they'll fit on 8mm axles and I can run this and the LST2's on road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodgemonkey Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Adaptors should be done pretty soon. Got the wheels all trued and also threaded the wheels to the nut thread. They weigh 245g each with the reinforcing rings and 210g without so I should be able to save a fair bit of weight on my rulux/badlands combo which come in at 315g each. 420g less rotational mass should mean that it'll accelerate quicker and therefore I should be able to gear up???

bodgemonkey Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Adaptors arrived today, well pleased with the machining and the turnaround time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Nicely done, monkey. Re your wheel weight query, theoretically yes, you could gear up having a lower rotational mass. Usual caveat of temp checking applies of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodgemonkey Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Temp checking for me usually involves hwo long I can hold my finger on the can until I get burnt. Josh1A1H did that on my old LST2 ezrun motor when it was over 110 degrees celcius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodgemonkey Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 No idea, I found it at the market years ago! i bought some fresh batteries for this last week and have been messing about with it. Took it up to a quarry in Hatfield and gave it a damn good thrashing. Possibly cooked the motor as it's pretty overgeared for it. 19/46 with a 2150, so I'll be grabbing a 1900kv when funds allow.
