Twin Engine

[mhudsy171]

I would like to say first of all:

I know they arent practical or entirely funcational, but its not what i want to do it for.

I am wanting to build a twin engined RC Car. Thinking of using a Hyper 7 Chassis.

Has anyone got any ideas on what car would be the best starting point?

ANY HELP IS GREAT

Regards

Probably something with a center diff or very robust two speed. Truggy would be more fun than a buggy I'd think. Or savage.

I've seen a few over the years. The most impressive was a 21 supermaxx with 3 XTM 24.7's on it But the vids sucked:

The next was a 21 maxx with 2 engines:

You have to FFwd a bit to see it run.

yeah,at first it wanted to wheelie then only the fronts were spinning. Watch closely when he drives up the step to the driveway from the road,def only the fronts spin.

That other one is sick, I've seen those videos a few times. Awesome 1:1 buggy he built too.

A little off topic but i won a MT2 off ebay (Item no:260672144774) for a bargain price.

I am looking at Nosram RS.18 EVO Pullstart Engine (£109.99 From Modelsport) Has anyone heard anything of these engines?

Again Thanks
