RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
Fabe and Sam your builds look great! i think im going to do the double chassis and a straight shaft from the front to rear diffs. I dont have a welder so how would I attach the sprocket to the shaft? thanks for the help guys.

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
Ya those get complicated fast though. hmmmm maybe like one four stroke or somthing. I like the idea of a 2 stroke though. id. thanks for the help man.

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
yeah I could make it a solid rear axle i guess and keep the suspension up front...but without a diff would it have a really bad turning radius? cuz i will most likely only really drive it at a parking lot track guys setup every week in the summer near me for 1/5 and 1/8 onroad cars so.. not competitive but i want to make the turns lol.also wouldnt I have to make the ride hieght higher to clear the sproket on the axle? idk i will keep looking around. thanks for the help.

Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
Ok well I have the front and rear end of a Lightening stadum pro 1/8 truggy. I figured the width was about right to make a 1/5 onroader, what do you guys think? If it is I was wondering what you guys think about this idea? I will most likely do a dual nitro engine[:D]setup, I would love a gasser but all the sprockets and things totally throw me off. lol. I would probaly make it 2wd becuase its easier but possibly 4wd later on. Let me know what you guys think. thanks[:D]

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
Ok so I was thinking that maybe twin nitros wouldnt be the best idea...it would be awsome but two big blocks would use almost a gallon for one session at the parking lot! What I was wondering is if there is a way I could run say a small 2 stroke engine like a chainsaw engine or a weedwacker engine or somthing but still connect it to the truggy rear end? I think that would be cooler also not to mention the run times I would get. lmk what you guys think.

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
yeah I think a chassis that long at 3mm would flex. thats why I want 5mm, if my dad can bring home a sheet of 3mm i would try it though, no complaints haha. Not like im jumping it sinces its an onroad car but twin engines is gonna put some stress on the chassis.

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
Yeah ive toyed with the idea before but never actually got around to doing it, till now![:D] My dad just got home and I asked him about the aluminum and he said he might have a sheet I could have at work, I sure hope so becuase the sheet of aluminum for the chassis would cost me $60! I mean the full tranny is only $70 come on...lol If he has it I will start the chassis tomorrow or this weekend(depending on when he can get it) if not Ill have to order it and wait.......[8|] lol

RE: Custom 1/5 Onroader Build!
yeah that sounds good. Ill have a look around. I just went through the basement looking for some cardboard to mock up the chassis, i saw a sheet of aluminum the perfect thickness and i pulled it out and!.........only about 6in long haha thats sucks lol. I can find any cardboard either, maybe I will start on the real chassis this weekend though. [:D]

OK Ill do it![:D] Im gonna make the chassis out of cardboard later and then cut it out of aluminum. I need to buy some first though, you think home depot would have a sheet? Ill have too look around. Thanks for the inspirations guys, I was looking around here last night at the homebuilds and now look at what you got me doing[sm=bananahead.gif]hahaha

RE: The Official Traxxas Slash short-course race truck
Ok well it stopped raining so I took the slash for the first test. O...M..G lol this thing is a freakin beast! I havent gotten over 1/2 throttle becuase i run out of room in my yard or becuase it flips over! lol and the greass is wet so traction is like gone and it still rips! I took a little vid, dont really go over 1/4 throttle in the vid since i was filming and driving. My rx pack broke loose at the end and it ran away but stoped in my neightbors yard, phew haha. (at the end i put the cam down, thought i turned it off but its still recording so you can just turn the vid off lol) [link]http://s437.photobucket.com/albums/qq99/oday1395/?action=view¤t=July-24-0951326.flv[/link]
