Brushless MGT / MTA4 bashing!

[sskv2]

that's so cool!!! :-D

[jackyCopter]

Waouhh super ! ça décoiffe !

[okrabay]

where can i get the motor mount you are using?

[fathead431]

@okrabay the garbage. its made out of recycled bits of other motor mounts, a piece of school library shelving and a zip tie. no brushless conversion ecists for the mgt, but you could give rc-monster mike a holler and see if he can make you something. you can buy square can motor mount things from impaktrc(.)com which might fit, but you would have to drill the chassis to get the right hole alignment.

[jefftakeover]

those are some pretty epic sound effects

[fathead431]

@jefftakeover 100% real. promise :D

[trxslashdriver]

DAMN this this is huge, and crazy freakin fast too. nice truck dude.

[fathead431]

@trxslashdriver thanks! its a beast i tell ya! just got through a set of rpm stablemaxx wheels. the darn thing stripped the 17mm hex! :O

[trxslashdriver]

@fathead431 yea i bet the torque comin from that thing is massive. i spent almost three hours installing cvd driveshafts on my friends dad's mini revo. the mini's aren't as big or as powerful as this thing, but the power to weight ratio is substantial, and the mini revo eats driveshafts for breakfast.

lookin good! lol, some dude from Australia was telling me his losi speed t went like the clappers, obviously it means its fast, but is there any other meaning? haha what are the clappers? just an expression u never hear in U.S., any sweet vid!

[95666]

*anyway* i meant, and whats this music from? ive heard it before somewhere.

[fathead431]

@95666 haha its a ye olde english expression referring to the bell ringers.

its a damn fast truck for its weight and size, and is rapidly becoming my favourite RC EVER.

[TractorKid7]

[fathead431]

@TractorKid7 im soo scared to go all out on it. i really dont want to liquify the transmission having read several worrying stories...

[hasek1616]

;lol mcgyver motor mount? what exactly is this mcgyver motor mount?

[fathead431]

@hasek1616 *takes deep breath*

kyosho inferno brushless motor mount by rc monster cut in half, mounted to a piece of "borrowed" steel shelving from my schools library, then the rear of the motor is supported by half of a savage flux motor mount, which has a piece of e-maxx steering column and a piece of bullet connector to create a spacer, into which i put a screw to stop the motor going too far down. the motor mount is then held down to the chassis with 2 big bolts and one large zip tie. phew!

[hasek1616]

@fathead431 lol that mustve been a good amount of work, i also borrowed an aluminum ruler for a gopro mount ill be making in the future, its nice to have places that let you borrow stuff like that isnt it lol

[fathead431]

@hasek1616 school supplies ^^

ive also found that the metal cover that goes over the toilet roll makes great motor mounts :D

[CardNox]
