POST UP YOUR SUMMIT AND SPECIFICATIONS: The official bragging thread

[traxstar]

My new toy for now

[traxstar]

I had to update once again

Name : Sumbot
Motor : Novak 7.5 HV(sensored)
ESC : Mamba Max Pro
BEC : CCBEC
Spur\Pinion : 12/68
Batts : 2 SMC - 2s 9000 Mah Lipo in series(4s 9000 Mah 28C)
Speeds : 32 Mph(calculated seems close)
Run time : 1 1/2 Hrs bashing - 4-5 Hrs crawling/hiking(estimated)
Wheels/Tires : RPM Revolver/Losi Claw MT's
Body : Proline 2007 Silverado
Suspension : LT with Double orange springs front and rear, 70 Wt shock oil
Radio : Traxxas Link HO (modified for 3 position 3rd and 4th channels)
Servo(s) : Hi-Tec 7980(front) - Hi-Tec 7955(rear)

Programmable Digital Components : MMP, CCBECm, Hi-Tec 7980, Hi-Tec 7955t

Custom : Front mounted motor, front mounted ESC, 2 water proof boxes, Servo saver spacer, Single front steering servo, 4WS(front and rear), TRX front toe links.

All of the exposed electronics are listed as water resistant, everything else is mounted inside the water proof boxes. I believe it to be quite reasonably water tight. As far as swimming goes, it is certainly not as water proof yet as I would it like to be. but I'm sure I will test it at least once




Sumbot Build thread

would i be able to get that much battery life if i were to get the same batteries and use them on my stock Summit ? Sorry for the noob question

[jolynsbass]

No, you would not. Because he's using a Brushless motor, it's way more efficient than the stock brushed system - especially since he's got it geared for only slightly faster than stock. I'd guess you'd get about 1 hour bashing, 2-2.5 hours of crawling, though, which is still pretty awesome!

Well, here is "Big Red"











This is the truck mounted camera. Its made by Swann and was 90 bucks. Its not an hd cam, but it does very well.




The rear steering setup





The on\off switches for the roll bar lights and emergency flasher bar





the full back shot




Roll bar lights





Emergency flasher bar





and here is all the wires, switches, and a 6-cell traxxas 2200mah batter. Itried to get it all into the gas tank. it didnt work out very well for me. i will try to clean it up later on.








and a shot of the camera compared to the truck

Spur/pinion : 68/14
WHEELS/TIRES : stock canyons 6!!!
BODY : custom extended summit body
Suspension : Stock

Bolt ons : center cvd

Custom : custom 6 powered wheel setup, custom transfer case with inverter gear, custom double sided differential

Comments/ quote : This is my Summit. All wheels actually turning under power. I will make foto report about build .

two rear diffs are on a "Y" harness

n my 6X6 e-revo 1/16 not used invertor gear (gear in the third diff change from left to right - very simply) but in the Summit use lock diff and was additionally problems. Next step - change all CVD to metall and change motor+ESC to Mamba. I few idea about change body... Maybe Tamiya 1/14 King Hauler booth... Maybe made Summit extended from two body

Here's my summit. I narrowed a set of Axial wheels and star cut the foams and put on a set of 40 series Mudslingers. After frying 2 775 motor and losing the LVD on the EVX2 I put in my castle mmm 2200kv system. Here's some pics of my mods.

NOTErized!

[skunkmann]

my oil cooled mamba monster summit ...i like to play in the water previously had 2 wp sc8 esc that blew up in the water so i decided to make my own waterproof container ,,, ive been running the mamba monster since day 1 in this oil filled box , over 4 months now ,the heat transfer is amazing my temp sensor doesn't even reach 110 degrees just hard o get it initially sealed , the mamba is mounted to a big heat sink in the aluminum container which also dissipates heat, have some 1watt lights a winch and GMADE piggyback shocks which id recommend to anyone , these shock have amazing compression nd rebound , the tires always stay planted rc4wd rock crushers on narrow wheels and big joes 2 8000 mah batteries , lots of other mods ,,, btw my summits a little beat lol nowhere near perfect haha


front bumper broke off the night before

[rizz0d]

How are you liking the brushless? I put my castle mmm 2200kv in my summit and was expecting it not to crawl at all but it does pretty good. Cogs just a little from a stop but still works great. And it's an absolute blast to drive now.

[markman]

Loving the brushless! Before the castlelink it was just too much power. I toned down the punch, adjusted the power and brake curves and put in 50% dragbrake. All things not possible with evx. I could never go back now, especially with my tim cameron tendencies, its just awesome!

Same way of feel. I turned down the punch 60% and adjust the drag brake as you did, I love it. I'm still messing with the power curves. At first I was bummed that the lvd in my EVX2 took a crap and my titan 775 burned up. Now I'm glad it happened cause I wouldn't have tried out my castle system in it. Awesome!

NOTErized!

[noir 522]

Fresh ideas?
