53HRA Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Only one word can describe our newest limited edition chassis - it's a beast! Realistically modelled after the historical MAN Kat1 series of 7-ton military-spec all-terrain trucks developed for the German Army, our 7T-GL High Mobility 6X6 Truck is a 1/10-scale machine like nothing we've ever released before! Weighing in at over 11 pounds, the build of this machine all starts with the backbone - a pre-assembled box-type ladder ladder frame made from steel and alloy components. From here, you'll find three Billet machined alloy axles with metal gear differentials (spool for the front axle), full ball bearings, full alloy high-ratio center transmission, full-time six-wheel drive system with HD universal driveshafts, and a multi-link crawler-type suspension with separate alloy shocks and springs.

capri-boy Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Nice promo pics, so why the clear arches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Cab looks awful with all the bolt heads. And at $1200 seems very expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Does look like the cab's a teenager!! Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmini Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I really like this. Not the cost so much but yea I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Looks exactly the same as he Cross-RC one IMO. Although the Cross-RC looks a lot better, again, just IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeylcfc Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I think the bolt heads add something that I would miss without them. I really like all these 6x6s and 8x8s, and it really is time to get one. Probs going to have to be an Exceed though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkfat78 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Didn't Medic do a video series on one of these? It was something like this but I thought it was called a Capo or something. Arrived in a wooden crate lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistonhead Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 That was a completely different beast altogether. Medics one cost around $3000 Canadian, and was an un assembled kit with something like 1200 screws! And weighed about 30lbs when shipped...

Slugsie Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yeah, looks like a cheaper version of the Capo that Medic did. I quite like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Is it me or are the tyres on the wrong way round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Is it me or are the tyres on the wrong way round? Based on the typical 'trend', I would agree. Many people actually reverse them as they grip better, for example on MT's when reversed 'the wrong way around'. Classic examples are the 2WD FG MT's. Al.

Gaz! Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Taking the price out of it for a moment, it still doesn't look as good as the cross rc 8x8 or 6x6 on eBay, for half the cost of that. Some nice touches but still prefer the cross rc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz! Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yeah mate, all kind of rough terrain that gives a challenge. Been speaking to a lad at our clumber park meet today, he knows where it is so might have a trip down soon when we can get a posse together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatout! Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 There's a spot that i think you guys will love to have a go at, i used to do it with the trails bike 290 pro and it's quite tricky so i think you'll like it, the stream cuts through the woods and goes right from were im trying to get somthing together, and there's some really steep hill at the side of the old railway bridge and there another further in.

Would they mind a 2stroke up there it's kinder noisy in the trees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
