One of the best projects I've seen in a long time, good job.

2 questions

What kind of motor is that and where is it from
And are the front shocks alloy micro rally shocks?

FloydfanYodaman 07-18-2012 10:39 AM

hey man...glad you posted this up...definitely a great project...nice work :)

DRFTKO 07-18-2012 11:07 AM

Awesome project to say the least! I don't recall anyone ever adding a camper shell to their project, so congrats on paving the way (someone correct me if I am wrong)! Nice to see innovation and creativity on this level with the hobby where it is at right now! Keep it up! :p

Richard 07-18-2012 01:26 PM

Hey,

Thank you! :p

The motor is called "Graupner Speed 250"
And those are alloy shocks from MiniZ Overland/Monster.


now I will show you more proceedings...

pimped and polished

Here's a video showing the function and the current status of the project. (January, 2012)

Winch function test

Well, the electronics have taken place on the chassis ...

http://s14.directupload.net/images/u...8/vcpg6xjj.jpg
http://s14.directupload.net/images/u...8/zqsoyrkx.jpg
http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/jydsfq5x.jpg
http://s14.directupload.net/images/u...8/il8sudrh.jpg
http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/b3d3d99r.jpg

The switching amplifier board for the sound module I've also soldered. This is how the pneumatic motor can be sound synchronously switched via sound module.


It was further made ​​on the body ... (7th April 2012)

http://s7.directupload.net/images/us...8/ucnmojvb.jpg
http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/lkn2dtb8.jpg
http://s7.directupload.net/images/us...8/9tsu7c53.jpg


Hood functionally adapted and continued to build the entire front, further brushed a bit color to see the imperfections.

Mini update...

http://s7.directupload.net/images/us...8/5kebiv9n.jpg
http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/8wh6vd92.jpg


I made ​​a magnetic lock for the hood. The first thing I did completely encapsulates the magnet, but it turned out that they were weak, so I installed additionally magnets.

Now it works like I wanted it.

Also on the body I continued a bit, because I want to have the body work completed as soon as possible.

Bye!
Richi

Wow, this is nuts. Keep the updates coming!

Richard 07-24-2012 03:23 PM

Hey, thanks!

have been busy with the campers build ...

http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/wi2io9ax.jpg
http://s14.directupload.net/images/u...8/tfioqqar.jpg
http://s1.directupload.net/images/us...8/o8bmix9c.jpg
http://s7.directupload.net/images/us...8/ym2drlgd.jpg

The rear vents in the building have a purpose.
Behind the slanted coverage elongated grooves have been milled.
Behind it, the speaker will be placed.

To the right of the "louvers" will be a ladder made ​​of brass, which I still have to build.
All windows are already prepared and will be blacked out from the inside.

Camper will be white, the vehicle will be painted in a special pearl blue and maybe decorated with accents.
Building has just been primed and dried yet.

xmodder24 08-22-2012 10:25 AM

Wow! This makes alot of projects these days look amateur!

islander77 08-26-2012 09:12 AM

Keep the updates coming
 
Project looks great! Where did you get the "hydraulic" arm for lifting the camper?

pieisgude 08-29-2012 10:29 AM

This is a magnificent build right here. Love it!
