Wow! As Jezza would say: SPEED AND POWER!!!!!!

[Sylvian]

Sick.. you gave it quite the beating!

[nerdsforprez]

I am not sure what to be more jealous of... your build..... the fact that you even have four RC motors, or the fact that you were camping in such beautiful wilderness! Great job!

[Graham Gidman]

The shaping is just perfect! Great decals too.

[GoldCivetta]

isn't it illegal to have more than 2 buggy motors in your model?

Nice build, mate.

[Zerobricks]

4 RC motors! What a beast! Please post a pucture of the chassis.

Thanks!

All decals are from official sets :)

Please post a pucture of the chassis.

I have rather bad photo now:

That looks sweet and performs spectacularly!

No universal joints?

How does the steering works without? ;-)

Looks to be a beast! Any damaged parts due to much power? Apart from scratches.

WTF, motors on the wheel hubs??? :devil:

Do I see right the front two RC motors actually turn with the wheels? Takes a massive build to accommodate that sort of steering.

Yes, front RC motors really turn with front wheels so I don't need universal joints! Furthermore the gravity acting to these motors provides right castor angle.

No damaged parts, only scratches :)

Awesome truck. I'm amazed it has no U joints

[DickesC]

Detailed pictures of the front axle would be nice

[Jeroen Ottens]

Brutal! Simple, but effective styling. Very interested in the frontaxle design as well, that's an ingeneous solution to prevent U-joints.

[Edwin Korstanje]

Great Moc, and stunning film work :thumbup:

[BusterHaus]

The stock stickers are very well used. Great build!

[Doc_Brown]

Insane! This has to be the best off-road video ever made featuring a technic model! Great job. :thumbup:

Brilliant using motors like that.

No universal joints, no diffs, no S-brick :)

[KirTech LAB]

Thanks a lot!

I've replaced gear ratio from 1:1 to 1:3 so I've lost velocity but now it can move not only downhill :)

Thanks for watching!

[KirTech LAB]

I've created a short movie about my trip with this model. It was very funny!

Looks like an amazing trip.

Yes! North nature is awesome. I want to create a ship and film these rocks from water - it should be very beautiful!
