That's true, would need every bit of those lol

 

[atom3624]

Good point.

What 'digital motors' as Mr Dyson advertises his BL-motor powered vacuum cleaners does he use - perhaps some of the bigger ones might be useful?

Otherwise, there could be a dual motor MOA electric version?

I'm certain some of the specialists will have the odd 10-15 hp motor lying around somewhere!!

The old castle 780kv xl2 motor was rated at 10bhp on just 8s....?...i had one in my old dbxl...?..i have a 13s capable motor in x maxx ..but only a 8s esc
......so imagine a 16+s motors bhp....nuts

I think what this monster truck really needs is the rcmax 90gt or the alx 85cc

 

[atom3624]

XL2 has problems going over 250A, which doubtless this would need from rest and a lot more to be lively enough to be interesting.

Seems like a $500-1,000 petrol option or a $1,500+ electric combo ... then there's the batteries ... and the fire extinguisher when you nuke the ESC, motor or batteries ... !!

Probably best staying 'a gasser' ...

Yeah obv a xl would b pants? but jus saying power wise?....what do them lehner's put out??

 

[atom3624]

An upgrade of this is probably what you're looking for: https://www.mgm-controllers.com/car...-combo-for-kraken-vekta-5-conversion-kit.html

Vekta will weigh in at perhaps 45-50 lbs?

damn!! thats big!!! (twss)

 

[Seandonato73]

May have to ditch the dbxl for one of these if they are any good ?

 

[atom3624]

Wheels and impression of chassis are amazing.
Let's hope the rest lives up to expectations.

Bigfoot?
Gravedigger?
Max D?

How do you give body options on something this big, without breaking the bank each time? !!!

Al.

 

[Seandonato73]

The aftermarket will come around if it grabs hold. Then it will be easy to get bodies and what not.

i heard it will have a dodge body. not sure how true this is being i heard it from a botajell video a year ago

 

[John Parks]

No doubt bodies will be $300+ hell the mtxl body is 190, losi 5ive bodies are $270, baha cage/bodies are $200+. Hard to make a body that can take a beating from a 80lb truck flipping.

I mean at that point, plastic roll cages I think are out of the question, and will need to be steel, or a very large plastic cage

 

[atom3624]

I was just thinking it'll need to handle the inevitable grip-rolls it'll encounter from time to time.

There's a video with mention of 'red anodised alloy' parts - so perhaps a BIG scale Raminator?

Whatever happened to this:

Suspension needed work - too 'loose' - and body just WRONG ...

Surely this could have gone somewhere with the right support ...

yeah i saw that, was a good concept but needed work.

Thing looks like a turd, I definitely hope the primal is much better as I think it will be.
