Show us your Marder

[pipeous]

I am breaking in my new motor this weekend. Finally got mine finshed... well except I had to order the rear brake. I only need the front brake for break in anyway lol....

aluminum front and rear bulkheads, side motor plate, spur carrier, rear upper arms, front cable disc brakes, bearing alloy servo saver, 3300 mah matched battery pack, steel pinion, dif riser, chrome 29cc cy with red ano head, jp pipe, fh wheels, red ps cover and filter cover, custom cable throttle (mountain bike derailer and tamiya front arm), plastic gear cover, Hitec 645's for the throttle brake servos and I have to say those cheapo tower pro digital 1/4 scale servos are very fast and tons of power. also am ordering a set of the FG baj tires and wheels for our clay track

i hope you mean your mixing at 32:1 to 25:1, letting the motor warm up for a few minutes, then going out and RUNNING THE FUGG out of it. thats how i broke in all my new gasser motors and only deaths were from Sand/Dirt gallons later.
lol


nice rides peeps!
i have to say that marder Selwa posted up is one of the nicest Marders ive seen.

http://www.oneillbrothers.com/tech/breakin.htm is the instructions. track is tight so staying half throttle is pretty easy hehe. only spot for full is the straight stretch and that was a fleeting moment with the 23cc.

Not a shelf Queen...lol

[dwarfy]

Im sure Ive posted on another similar thread but here it is anyway
No fancy bits here! I find the FG plastic more than capable of taking a good bashing!!

 

[PBJT]

My Marder. takes a bit of use/abuse! I run hpi paddles or hostile on the rear because I found I got stuck to much in the loose sand with the narrow fgs, and I run MT gear ratio because it was too fast for bashing.



gets to kick the crap out of baja's too.


seen a few seasons.


My marder now has MT frt suspension with single coil springs, that way I only need to stock one type of frt suspension.
