Holy crap - That's a big engine on there! Is that size needed to make this thing go or did you want it to go wicked fast?

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Looks good. Has it been driven yet? If so how fast is it?

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

MUST HAVE, MUST HAVE :D:D[8D];)

That is just TOO Cool!!!! [8D]

As I live in Greenland, and has snow for around 7 months a year, I just NEED a toy like that.
Know I just hope it is not far to expensive...

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

were trying to keep the price close to 1,000 canadian.Wait till you see it in action!Will be making a video real soon on grass!

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

If you come up with a cool action figure to ride that thing....I will move to Greenland just to play. :D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

One is planned to fit the snowmobile it should be nice:)

We will also are thinking of making a fourwheeler (Quad or Rapotor)with the same engines and really scale.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Do you have a shell made for that thing yet?

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Cool, susbscribed to this thread.

$1,000 CAN. That's like $50US! ....... hehe j/k :D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Makes me want to move to snow country just so I can have one to play with! :D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

I like it...

By the way, what kind of servos do you use, must take some heavy gear to turn those skids in heavy snow.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

cool, different i really like the idea of 1/6 scale quad with 50cc engine:D i like the snowmobile but it does remind me of one of those tarmac flateners you see repairing roads:)

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Must subscribe to this thread just to see the vid!!

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

neat machine..... what is snow???

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Well the body is being made as we speak and so are the sprockets for the rear track.There is still alot of testing and beating left to be done to have it bomb proof or close to bomb proof machine.This is heavy duty it will weigh about 50 to 60 pounds rtr and built like a tank,so it can handle any abuse.

The steering servo for now is a Hitec 5745mG and is working very well but our tests aren t all done yet.We might add a second one to relieve some stress.Or go with two 805bb wich have greater torque.

The disc brake is off your standard pocket bike and brakes like crazy!This will not be an issue i garanty it!

I can t wait to try the 125cc engine!!!This thing is going to be crazy!

Once i get more info,pictures and video i will post the news.;)

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Looks sweet! People with the white stuff on the ground pretty soon, will love it!

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

will it be able to pull me up a hill on my board so I wont have to wait in a lift line???:D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

that would be sweet lol everyone else is gettin on the lift and your just towing yourself.....or you could try to ride it if it has a pocket bike engine it should haul you lol. a pocket snowmobile hmmmm i want to invent that.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Very nice machine!!! In a few months the snow will come!! I may have to make some snow skies for my Marder!!! Hey there's an idea, make some skies for the FG's so we can use them in the snow with the monster tractor tires!!!!

Look like just the ticket for a donor (or toy). MIKE

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Mike@Accurate:

Where did U find those?

The belt driven Mini Scooter could be fun up here in Greenland
Unfortunateæy We have a US$ 4000 Tax on snow scooters/snow mobiles, making the small ones of those un interesting.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Go to: made-in-china.com and search snow scooter. Then search for everything else the Chinese make. I could spend a week browsing there. MIKE

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

I was thinking of brining those to Canada but not for the moment:D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Thats cool.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Any new word on this monster?

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

How about an update, I'd love to see the vid now that there is snow on the ground! I would rather just add appropriate servos to an Arctic Z120 or a Skidoo MiniZ and call it good! Lots of mods out there for those already if they aren't fast enough.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

those things on th made in china website are cheap for a reson the build quility is horrid.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

No, they are cheap, because minimum order typically is a 20' container...... Also, prices are without freight and taxes...
You CAN find high quality products made in China, IF you are willing to pay.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

or like the mini polaris for kids with a 125cc engine in it

Looks great [sm=thumbup.gif]


Why not put Animal or Rizzo from the Muppets, or Gonzo or Shrimp as a designated driver ;) he he he, why not the Swedish chef :D

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

that thing is awesome man.

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

what ever happened with this?

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

Hopefully it didn't die off like 99% of all large scale projects...........

RE: New 1/4 Scale Snowmobile!!
 

The concept of a snowmobile is pretty damned cool. Too bad the video wont be the snowmobile actually on SNOW. Shoot, sadly enough, there isnt much here either.
