Sand Rail Build coming up.

[Timmahh]

but its not a Baja Rail. I was contemplating converting one of my slashes over to run on the sand when i go to Silver Lake to play. BUT in looking around for a few things, i ran across a Very nice Sand rail chassis tuber. I looked at the two RC4WD sells and they are both very nice, but when i saw these ones, i knew it was the one I'm getting. SO buy the stuff I'm selling to i can buy the goodies i need to get for this Killer Rail Build.

this will be a long travel 1/10th (though the guy thinks the chassis are more of a 1/8th scale, though he uses all 1/10th gear for them), 4 seater with alot of detaila. I ll be useing a few of the ideas i got while crawling and doing my TT conversion build and implementing them into this build.

power will be thru a Slash VXL tranny and will be powered by a Novak 4.5R Velocity system wich can run up to 6S. WHOOO HOOOO.

i guess its just easier to pop up pics atm, so you ca see where I'm heading with it.

Sand Rail Tuber Chassis (I'm getting the black/silver one. Deal is almost finalized!)

we all know what a VXL Slash tranny looks like as well as a motor/esc, but i ll be installing the Fast Lane Maching Billet tranny system for the slash

(motor guard plate, bumper mount ect. is needed with the cases above)


If i can make this work out to cover some of the tranny area maybe without totally hiding the FLM slash cases ect...

and every sand rail needs a gas tank.

will try to use this to cover the novak motor area if i can make it work


Jato EXO CF rear and front arms

Jato Front and Rear Aluminum Hubs

Jato Aluminum Steering Whiper set with built in servo saver assembly

RC4WD X11 Remote Rezzis in 110mm for rear

(will lose the spring and adjuster rings. will only use the rezzi shock setup)

RC4WD Dual Spring 110mm shocks for rear

RC4WD Dual Spring 90mm shock for the front

and a Roof Rack

With RPP Hobby Aluminum Light pods with Clear and yellow lenses.

and for some extra Killer looks
RC4WD Torque 2.2 Rims all around (narrows)

with Panther Paddles and Razors

and every Sand Rail needs seating room for 4

will also get a dash (diamond plate if i can find some ) with working steering wheel. and maybe some light dash lights ect..

so thats the plan so to speak. you can imagine how it may look, but i ll help you out some with these 3 pics of ohter units that has been built from this Rail Chassis

will post more once parts start to arrive and build begins.

Looks like it will be a killer rig Timmah!

 

[kenazzo2000]

nice work mate hope you take a video of it running

 

[Timmahh]

well the original chassis i was going to get fell thru. so me and a buddy of mine have been looking at 1:1 chassis to model one after. We have narrowed it down to 2 or 3 1:1 chassis to build. hopefully next week, we ll be able to start cutting tube and start welding one up.

If they come out well enough, and it works correctly and looks good, we may start building some of the tuber rail chassis to sell. will post more once we have a definative direction.
