Here is my Land Rover scaler. I seem to like the LR3 body better than the Rover Sport body.
Here are the specs:
- TLT axles
- MFM Chassis
- High Lift tires
- Axial transmission
- Traxxas receiver and transmitter
- Stock Tamiya silver can
- 25 tooth pinion and 78 tooth spur (speed)
- Tower Pro 995 servo
- Traxxas big bore shocks
- Msonik ESC
Pictures:
I like the stance here:
It doesn't have the roof rack, snorkel, headlight protectors or front guard:
Rear with tail light protectors:
Flex shot. I think the shocks are kinda stiff because to get it to flex like this, I had to push down and let go so it would flex. Any ideas?:
It can flex more, but I guess it would need more weight..:
My ingenious front mounting points. Since I didn't have the front bumper guard, there were two holes that disturbed me, so I stuck some mounting posts in there and attached them to the chassis, and it works out perfectly!
Closer picture of mounts on chassis:
Chassis shot. You really can't see it from here, but the transmission is holding on to a piece of metal held onto the chassis.
Rear mounting idea. Not finalized yet. (Kinda stuck on what to do, since I want no holes on the body, except for ones already there...):
Ground clearance:
Same but with Range Rover Sport body. It is high because the roof line on it is lower the the LR3, so the rear mounting posts raise it up a bit.
