[MOC] Baja trophy truck

[ArsMan064]

Hello!

It is a small trophy truck. I built it for downhill event in Moscow 17/06/2018.

Features:

• Servo motor for steering
• Buggy motor for drive
• Lipo battery
• 2x extension wires
• Sbrick

It has simple interior, openable hood. There are not doors, like in real cars.

Stickers on wheels from 42046

Very soft suspension, is is a bit sank for better work on speed.

 

 

Model has pretty nice speed and maneuverability, but it is not very good for jumps.

 

Spare wheel and interior

 

INSTRUCTION available! You can see it and all photos here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/ArsMan064/baja-trophy-truck

 

Thank you for reading! Hope you like it

Wow this thing is really fast. A buggy motor is always a good choice. 

I like this sober look of the car. Good to have spare wheels with you.

Good job!

The bodywork is nice, the chassis is compact, but does the gearing ever come loose for the rear axle?

I love this little monster

Here is my question, according to your instruction, the gear ratio is 1:1, right?

As it is lightweight, and the wheels are small, to make it faster, is it possible to raise gear ratio?

Wish you did the slowmo on the obstacles in the video.

Other than that, great moc!

Thank you! All gearing is reliable enough. Two light bluish gray 90 degree beams hold buggy motor very well

Thank you! Gear ratio is 20:28, 20-teeth gear and differential. I think, here is possible raise gear ratio replacing differential with smaller gear
