All the electronice layed out...


battery tray I made from scrap plastic...



99.8% done... All I have left is to make Links from the Servo to the knuckles. Program the ESC's and set up the Dx6 for the Super. I just need to figure out how to set different profiles on the Dx6. I can't figure that part out.:x





Just finished it up 4:45am this morning....

If you run brushed Motors you can use 1 Mamba Max.. If you run Brushless you will need two. I'm running brushed Motors with two Mamba Max's so I can control both front and Rear Axle how ever I like. front Burns (DIGS) or Rear Burns... I can drive it backwards just like it would going foward. I have complete contol over everything. Plus the Mamba Max's are Freaking sweet. Even my 2.2 Clod runs two Mamba Max's with Brushed motors.

If you get a 4 channel Radio. You can still have 4ws and front Digs with one ESC..... And if you get really creative you can have 4ws, front digs and rear digs.. But with a 3 channel radio you have to choose either 4ws or Digs....

If you want to know more.....

I noticed in the last 2 pics that you drilled holes in the backbone? I assume its for articulation? Your beadlocks look awesome, I love a nice clean project.

Matter of Fact I limited the Flex. The plate you see with Holes isn't the backbone.
