High clearance delrin links and hte battery sits on top of the front uppers to move weight up front for climbs and keeps the weight unsprung. Works pretty freakin good, limiting straps are on teh way though...

It also sports front dig. THe rear driveshaft has two halves connected via a slide. The "slide" has a 14mm hex on it and a servo slides it up to connect the two halves together, and then down into a 14mm 12pt wrench end to lock the rear tires and separate the two halves to spin. Works pretty slick. Wala- front dig. You can see the slide on the rear shaft here.

Here is the servo that operates it.

the flex shot, works like a real rig in that it is primarily droop flex, and the shocks ride about 90% compressed at ride height. Check out the mini muffler!

Still waiting on some beter stickers of the tire tracks to clean them up, and Shane from HBRK is helping me get scale stickers of all their sponsors and their logo. Should turn out pretty sweet....figured you guys might like it.

x2. If I can find all the parts next time i'm home im gonna start working on it again.


Looks awesome man. What shocks are those? I had trouble fitting coilovers in my buggy so maybe that "airshox" looking thing will do the trick.

looks to be rc4wd internal shocks. or you can use maxx shocks with 1/18th scale springs in them. I have a pair of the rc4wd shocks waiting for my moonbuggy. part of the reason I lost interest, took 2 months to get the shocks :mad:

They are just maxx shocks with mini-t springs in them. Nuts to RC4WD, it took over a month to get my beadlocks from them, and my order was wrong!
