my radline avalanche updated (new motor!)
i've had some time to play with my radline in my dorm room the past few days and i realized the stock motor has a lot of torque for a 130 motor. then i realized...i have a 180 motor in my hummer xmod that doesnt fit so why not switch em out to suit each vehicle better.
i dont have any good wires for the xmod's motor right now but i'll get it done this weekend, but i did hae the right wires for the radline 180 motor and i must say it's amazing with the stock motor it will pop wheelies going from reverse to foreward like an xtruck, but with the 180 motor it will RIDE wheelies, its an amazing upgrade in power and performance. now it's faster and has more torque for crawling, and it makes the little ramp that comes with it a lot more fun here's some pics of the body mounted how it should be and the 180 motor installed

yeah it is sick, i got a video of it pulling wheelies, it goes a lot faster than you see in the vid but this is mostly reverse to foreward stuff for wheelies

The reverse-forward is gonna KILL your drivetrain (I have a feeling I've wrote this before..)..
But it looks good. Were did you get the body? It looks a bit long, but still looks really good... And, do you think it was worth the $50?

Quote:
i got the body at TRU its about the same size as a hummer xtruck with a little extra past the rear wheels, but the same wheelbase (im still looking for another one for an xtruck project) after i dropped the 180 motor in it it was deffinately worth the $50, but with the stock motor its nothing to write home about really other than the fact that it has a decent amount of torque for a 130 size motor (good for putting into an xtruck crawler) here is an old picture of it compared to my hummer xtruck and here's and even older pic of both flexing on a 350z before the hummer had the tires it needed on it

I've been reading up on you guys's forum (and listening to "Push the Tempo") and seen some cool stuff. I think I'm gonna pick one up in a few weeks. Just gotta fix the Revo and get some Nitro...
1.) So for about $80 you have a pretty fast (bearings and shocks) truck? 2.) How's it jump? Nose High/Low? 3.) I'm gussing no slipper clutch on it? 4.) Any word on Alu. Shock Towers?

it was $50 for the truck, about $25 for the alum/oil filled shocks and the 180 motor (i dont have bearings yet) 2.) How's it jump? Nose High/Low? depends on how you jump the ramp. EX. let go of the throttle, nose goes down, stay on the throttle and it usually lands pretty flat (this is with the 180 motor now though, the stock one is pretty much nose down always 3.) I'm gussing no slipper clutch on it? nope, not that i'm aware of 4.) Any word on Alu. Shock Towers? not yet, but Bobtheangryflower from XMW called customer service and they told him they planned on making some alum parts for it, idk when they'll have them out though
