Hey partner, did you get the design i sent over to ya?

 

[ThunderTiger]

yes bud, i'm firing one back at ya right now !

aluminium bulks would be ill advised. you need something to take the impact and break under hard impact. Rather it be the bulks than the chassis being bent.

hmmmmmmmmmmm tunable slipper ? bit tooo much to think about ATM, cush drive however, deffo worth looking into !

Yeah, well, 1 out of 3 ain't bad...Neither of the last 2 would be of use to anyone with a center diff, but I'd buy 1

 

[olds97_lss]

If someone made what I think is being refferred to as a "cush" drive for the savage... I'd bite. Would be nice to have rear center drive cups last a while...

Is this what you guys are talking about?

Fioroni is a bit high on price... but it seems pretty unique. Get a couple people making them and they are no longer unique.

 

[rc-psycopath]

a couple of the suggestions that come to mind is, for the t-maxx, if you can make one even though u said only revo and mini... anyway, my suggestions are shock towers or a arms.see if you can make them better than integy (which should be easy) and a way to make the maxx's ride higher without affecting the shock performance.

 

[2revo1maxx]

I would like to see maxx chassis that lowers the trans to allow for a lower driveshaft angle. Driveshafts last longer when they're less articulated. I broke a mip center shaft in 2 tanks because of that high angle, plus many a stock shaft too. Or a bulkhead that raises the pinion angle.

That's kind of what I mean. If you've ever heard of a lovejoy coupling that's where I'm going with it. It could go in place of the center diff on bashin rigs, since a center diff helps deal with shock loads anyway. http://www.lovejoy-inc.com/content.aspx?id=206

One of them little star looking deals inside the final drive gear?

 

[olds97_lss]

Nope. Never heard of such a thing and really only came across the fioroni on accident. Cool concept that I like as a basher. Would help with general drive train shock as well. Now if only it was maintainable without taking the rear pod off... hmm...

So... revo rob... you make one of these yet? lol!

 

[revo_rob_1984]

i have a lot of ideas that are still in the R&D stages of development but as soon as i have something concrete i will let you all know

 

[Hyster]

I may have missed something but, you have a link yet?

 

[revo_rob_1984]

for a website. . .not yet

 

[ThunderTiger]

pointless having a website atm, although there is one, there is not a url or a lot of content yet.

A complete engine mount! The cast aluminum one breaks to easy for me and no company that I know of makes the entire engine mount out of milled aluminum. My revo is in parts in a trash bag ONLY because of that stupid engine mount and bending chassis. the last engine mount that broke was hardly used at all and it broke!

 

[2revo1maxx]

There is one available, but the company that makes it is known as INTEGARBAGE. Don't do it they suck!

Yeah, I'm not as regular here as I used to be, but in my years I have been here I have heard some bad things about Integy!
