that rxt-1 is a kickn truggy Tyler....you should be able to bash it pretty darn hard....my buggy is a beast...everything looks kewl....congrats

The truggy (i say) will never be "bashed". Its going to be strictly a racer to compete with the big names to prove a point (names arent everything). Im going to get the xtm sleeve and piston to keep the stock engine, and upgrade the servos and radio. Already have a new body on the way. The emxt is the basher, I want to see how high i can get it (ordering brushless setup next week). The lightning is the drifter. And thanks by the way.

So Eddie I got that picture of the windmill but not the aftermath. I also got pictures here of a couple custom additions to the truck and the new Spektrum Dx3.0 radio system and the new z590 steering servo installed. One pic is of the bumper I made for it and the custom work stand I built complete with turntable.

lol, nice, that windmill could cause some serious damage. Nice bumper and stand you made.

Thanks! Appreciated the advice on the new radio system too I think it's gonna work great. But now I have an extra receiver you know what that means right? Time for a new toy I'm open to suggestions for a backyard basher/racer.

i made a splash proof box for the receiver.

And, Does anyone know how to mount the motor tight? after i swaped this brushless on, the pinion gear will skip on the big center gear if i run the vehicle slowly against a wall and i wont crawl up the wall anymore, just the gears skipping. i tried a few times, holding it in together as much as i can and tightened the two bolts, but it still grinds. =(

ehroof 01-21-2009 10:25 PM

RE: ******Pictures of your Himoto's and OTHER RIDES!!!******
 
do you mean the mesh is too loose? You may have to use different mounting holes on it, there should be 4 holes in the motor.

airoscar 01-21-2009 11:18 PM

RE: ******Pictures of your Himoto's and OTHER RIDES!!!******
 
yeah the mesh i lose, it shows when much torque is required.
just differnt mounting holes would that much difference?
ok ill do that on weekend, cos i think i saw like at least 6 holes there i picked two random ones. lol

oh well, does any of the nitro trucks come with a sealed radio box? cos i kinda wanna get one and use on this truck. cos the one i made i have to glue seal it everytime, such a hassle.

ehroof 01-21-2009 11:25 PM

RE: ******Pictures of your Himoto's and OTHER RIDES!!!******
 
i will check and see, the 1/8ths like the rancho have a decently sealed box but i dont know how you would make that work.

airoscar 01-22-2009 12:01 AM

RE: ******Pictures of your Himoto's and OTHER RIDES!!!******
 
i would probably just tie the box to something, if the receiver fits in the box, the futaba receiver is bigger than the stock himoto though (not shown in my pictures)

ehroof 01-22-2009 02:17 PM

RE: ******Pictures of your Himoto's and OTHER RIDES!!!******
 
the rancho box would fit a larger reciever and battery for sure.

Me too. I ran across these on Tower and they finally got a few in so I snagged one. The kit was $124.
I have a spare SH12 engine and a spare radio set to get me started.
