MWAHAHAHAHAHAHHA. Once I can get more solder, Ill be able to wire the EP back up.



Regeared it so that its not as slow as a constipated sloth, but still torque tastic. That was on a rather nearly dead 9v battery, so it should be better on its own power. The batteries were in just so that it had full weight.

Look in the top pic, I have the big tires Aoshima super swampers. I just dont have solder right now, to fix the EP. And I need to chop another mm or two out of the bed...

edit:
note that the body is still mocked up. The only thing done is teh front clip and the bumper. The rest is sitting on vaiouse things to hold it at ride height.

They just look like the standard super swampers that you can get at places like xmods international or on ebay. They are still cool, though.

I have one of those s-10 kits and noticed that it is the PERFECT size for an xmod. i thought about building one myself, but my 1978 dodge ram is first in line...

It really is, maybe test it on the F150 chassis, Ive had to cut some bed down on the H2 chassis. Not really noticable unless your a S10-addict like me.

Aoshima super swampers, bought mine from CowboySiR from XMW for 15 shipped. Cheaper than the ebay stores

Thanks Ive got more of it climbing straight up still, even with the new gearing. None with the new tires yet though. Now that Ive got the tires, I can figure howto mount the bed to the rear-end. I have some ideas, just gotta see what works.

Tower hobbies is where I got my gear box from. It pretty much, screws right on. Just bend one of the mounting tabs so that its in the case, and it fits right up. The hole in the gear cover keeps the gear on the xmods drive gear.

yeah, I test fit mine on the f-150 chassis. It lined up PERFECT... like it was MADE for the xmod. No cutting, hacking... nothing. My dodge that I'm building is so close that I will leave it be (maybe a mm or two off, but not enough to worry), but nothing fit as well as my s10 model on the f-150 xmod chassis...

Lol.. PP's suck. Go 1/10 and you get reall performance. I bet my RC can take you're on and off road. Dirt Track or Asphalt. Bring it!

Texa, looks good, but you need to lower the Cog. Too high, it tipped so easily in the video.. You should sonsider a Lipo pack on top of the ESC, and you get more ground clearance..

Nice so far.. But mine looks so much sweater...
