[brend5341]

is there a yamaha nitro snowmobile?

[845jdog]

im making my own with a rush got the gearing done now i need to do the electronics

[gamepro0618]

how much is it new?

[Minipunk415]

sounds like a crying goat heehee pretty sweet tho

[AllAr0und]

I tried throwin in a arti cat F1000 engine in it but it doesnt work i think its a bit to heavy for it and it completely crushed it :(

[TheCarpenterk]

hey can u send me some pics of the build up so i can make one

[TheCarpenterk]

thats cool

[2427bond]

hey i got the same sled and i put a new brushless Velenion in it but it was only like walking speed. I just mounted the new motor to the stock transmission and even used the pinion gear that came with. Any advice?

[stvcharger]

I used the full drive system from a Nitro 4-Tec. The stock drive gear system was eliminated. My first attempt was an electric too, but found it just wasn't fast enough with the stock spur gear. I even tried multiple pinion gears.

[traxxluver]

how did u do that

[roger313111]

I have the red one and am looking for hood decals if you know where I can get them. I have a red and yellow brand new in boxes plus 1 red and 3 yellow. When were these discountued? Thanks!!

[vtsimpsons]

is that the stock track ??

[stvcharger]

Yes, it does still have the stock track.

[roger313111]

I am looking for new stripes for one of these. Do you know if and where I can get them?

[stvcharger]

What do you mean by "stripes"? I do have extra parts...

[khylek159]

can i have the plans please!!!

[stvcharger]

I don't have plans as it was a scratch build... Message me your email address and I can send you pics of the build up.

*forgot my miragecheeta password, but it's my sled in the video*

[fkgjri]

ya but you can buy a differebt snomobile rc and put a nitro engine in it and thats a pro .15

[stvcharger]

The 2.5 TRX went in shortly after this video was shot. The onboard video has the 2.5 in it. Didn't make that much of a difference...

[pan0man]

how much does the inexpensive sled cost?

[stvcharger]

They are discontinued but you can find them still on Ebay for $50 and up.

[bmxstunter1]

how long did it take i am doing a project just like it

[stvcharger]

Once you have all the parts it take a few days to get the bugs sorted out.

Although it does not show it in the video the hood and windsheild still fit over the nitro motor.

[stvcharger]

Yes, I did reinforce the body when the large motor went in.

[vr66r]

It's like a little growling monster.

[coolfool182]

have u ever heard a real sled that thing sounds really patheticc but dont get me wrong still pretty cool just kinda weak i prefer the real deal

[vr66r]

Yes, if you go to my page you can see my growling monster.

[coolfool182]

respect man nice sled

[stvcharger]

I have a Mach1 tripple cyl with modded exaust so yes I am aware what a "real sled" sounds like... This is just a toy. Watch the other vids and you can see it when the carb was set up a bit better.

[griffins75]

Where did u get the kit?

[rcking727]

put a 3.3 in it. or an os engine

[playyamxz550]

no savages 5.9 hhaha

[mikep4578]

that a pro 15

[str0masta0pk]

i put one of those in one of them sleds once and i hit a building and it broke in half literally lol

[awe212]

thats a pro 15 not a 2.5

[biggun1225]

u should put studs on it that u can make out of i donno like thumb taks or ummm staples to make it pop a wheelie

[christianson27]

now put a hood on it and waterskip it

[littleskater159]

looks slow

[30GB]

god i was so dumb i threw away one that had no electronics but i cold of made it into nitro F*CK!!

[sledman55]

wipeout! those things are sick

[davedemchuk]

is that the same mx that you can buy in like the source?

[miragecheeta]

No the ones at the Source are smaller. These were sold at WalMart and similar department stores. Now you'd likely only find them on Ebay, as they've been discontinued.

[rickjames400ex]

hectic

[SB52489]

hmmm... how would i go about doing this all i have is the trans from my 2.5 maxx and i doubt it would fit in something like that. i mean i know how to cnvert everything. did you try it without a trans at first?

[miragecheeta]

That's correct. I have the 2.5TRX in it now, but started out with the 1.5 out of the 4-Tec. I misnamed the video in error... Good eye!

[kramer199]

did you reinforce the body at all when your put that 2.5 engine in?

[k454k]

its the pro 15 not the 2.5trx

[criptok]

How much did this cost??

[miragecheeta]

Already had the donor car & radio equipment to make the sled gas powered. The sled was approx $75 on Ebay.

The rest is just the cost of your time making it all fit.

[miragecheeta]

no problem. I have pics of it in the build up stages too.

[13Jesse13]

wow, i have no clue what you mean lol..well im tired but still, uhm, can you e-mail me what to do and like if possible, where to get it? ill mail you my e-mail alright?

[13Jesse13]

hey man, 1-2 questions, 1. have you done anything to that toy? and if you have, whatd you do?..

[miragecheeta]

Step 1: Gut everything stock. Radio equipment, motor, gear case, etc... Upgrade the shocks too

Step 2: Modify an on road gas car and belt drive system to it. (I used a Traxxas Nitro 4-Tec)

*This way you have two gears and a brake system, just like the real thing*

[thekidextrem]

The nose is verry real wowww !!!

[CHILISORHENDRIX]

It would be, its a real, small scale engine!
