Pego Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Hi! This is a new chassis I have built, it features: 8 wheel drive by an XL motor 4 wheel steering by an M motor 4 live axles I willl put a winch on it still (any other ideas?). The performance of this thing impressed me a little, because I have only seen 8x8s with 2 XLs or more, so I wasn't sure if it would have enough power. The body will be of the russian Kamaz 6450 truck. I will make an LDD file of this too. Quote

Pego Posted April 26, 2015 Author Posted April 26, 2015 Put a 1kg (or two) on it, and then try. I know it is much lighter than other trucks right now, but I'll try to build the body so light that the motor can handle it Quote
jorgeopesi Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Welldone, I like the 4 live-axles I didn´t know yet how it works that suspension type thank you and you have a lot of room you can put more motros if you need. Quote
Milan Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Most of the length, the chassis is just one beam thick. If you put any kind of body, it will twist very much. Quote
