A few of you may have seen 1/3 1/3 (yup 1/3 scale) a few months ago, well now it's nearing a production after the final prototype has just been completed according to Mammuth Works facebook page.

Have any been sold?

Famous last question, but its getting increasingly difficult to use Largescale 2-stroke powered rigs, but just where could you reasonably routinely use one of these?

Is there a 'milk float' option?

If I was going to spend this much money on an RC, it would be a largescale tank.... not one of these.

 

Nowhere to run it, no way to transport it. I suppose if you are rich enough to buy one, you can afford to live in the country and own enough land to run it on.

Noj has a new project to contemplate  :thumbsup:

Ha ha!

Ugly, too short, too slow, handles like a pig, needs two to right it when it falls over, impractical and just not suited for a BL conversion...

I'm with NH on this, a tank for the money feels right... ;)

Originally though this did start off as a private project some years ago, when they started it, it wasn't destined to be put into production.

I just don't really think it has a point myself... The chassis would be awesome to buy a slip a Conley V8 in there, then at least you've got good power and the noise of a monster truck.

As it sits, it's exacly as Mr Noj described.... Doesn't seem to have a place.

where this beast should live is on the back end of the trailer with your 1:1 trophy / trick truck.

If you were loaded and lived in the countryside, had your own track, karting track, etc., you would wouldn't you? !!

Wonder if they could be converted to 'midget single seaters' ..... !!
