Redcat rally

[bigblkblazin]

Bring back the redcat rally seriously. Now that they have the xb-e they should make the rally-e. People want the large scale brushless onroad awd . Not all of us wanna be dirty all the time and or smell like gas.

Thats actually not a very bad idea at all

That's very easy to do. Sell the buggy body and tires. The FG wheels fit right on and the bodies are easy to find in all shapes.

Sounds like a lot of work , finding selling wheels . The brushless rally kit would be a super money maker . Is the red cow listening or what .

it's actually kinda easy to find the wheels and body, the rest is just a few pieces of hardware.

If i can find a gaser i will do a conversion worthy of the history books. or buy on direct from himoto

I Was going to post this prior, but noticed you wanted electric. Now that you mention a conversion, maybe this is up your ally. It's a roller, so not wasting money on the motor you aint gunna use?

It's nitorc post in the sale section.

I live like an hour from him . but he doesn't seem to check his messaged often .

 

[bigblkblazin]

I spoke with him just a minute ago. He is going to send it to me . Tommorrow.

 

[bigblkblazin]

I got the car and besides a problem with him sending everything but the servos everything looks good .

I actually finished the conversion with a angle iron a cc1717 motor and a mamba monster max . Final drive ratio is 12:1 . I used the the pinion that was attached to the center spur , i just bored it out to accommodate the motor(Had to buy a mini lathe because the assholes in my city wanna charge 120.00 to do such simple work) Pictures coming soon.

Nothing fancy



I just bored the pinion and used some angle aluminum for the motor mount .Also note i flipped the spur around.



Radio : spektrum dx3

Motor : cc1717

esc : Monster mamba max

servo : Himoto e9009 (soon to be upgraded)

Batteries: 6s 5000mah

Wieght : with batteries 18lbs

Does about 50 mph .

The motor does get warmer than i though it would . Thinking of using mod 1 gears in the near future for more readily available options

wheel?

what bodies will fit on it? since they are in all shapes and sizes? as well as the tires? but not a bad idea having the rally back even if it is the gas one!

 

[bigblkblazin]

ya seriously . What bodies fit on this and still look good ? I all but destroyed the subaru one .

 

[bigblkblazin]

Ohh ya and don't do what I did and use angle aluminum. Its not strong enough . i have since moved to the redcat xb-e setup .

That thing looks sick!! Too bad about the Subaru body, I liked the rally look.
