My Custom - Micro T + Case + Ramps
The Case:
As u all know, micro T's don't come with a case to keep them in when your not using them or when u are taking them out with u... so I though I would make my own... and here it is... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...%20T/case1.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...%20T/case2.jpg I made a mesh tray, which I painted black to sit the batteries on while they charge... I also added a 40x40mm PC, powered via a 9v PP9 battery, which will kool the motor down between runs... The Micro T : now for the micro T side of things... my current spec is: - Atomicmods bb motor - ball bearings - alloy shock set - alloy front skid plate - threaded steel Wheel shaft shafts and of cause, the custom hard plastic body, which as u can see I am still working on... lol... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...20T/truck1.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...20T/truck2.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...20T/truck3.jpg the body I got from a 1/32 nissan king cab - Tamiya kit... which I have had to cut the rear cab out of to make the body lenght shorter to fit the micro T's wheel base... The Ramps: Here is a pic of my frist 2 ramps I made from cereal boxes... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...%20T/ramps.jpg I will get some vidz made, once my new servo gets here from the USA, probs next week... I will also update, again once I have more work done on the body and my new rims set on it... |
Looks great, did you make the wood case?
|
no... it was an old art box, which I made new spacers for...
updates added a better longer aerial, along with the new rims and another body, which I will use along with the custom one, once I get it finished... lol... I also made some spacers to stop the adjustable o-ring slipping back up to the top, on the HR shocks... I kut up some spare tubing from RC aerial to make the spacers with... after seeing a tut Suzuki did using some plastic tubing from wire end connectors... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...k_Spacers2.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...k_Spacers1.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Black_T01.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Black_T02.jpg Below is a black widow spider design I did, which I will print onto some decal paper for the sides of the above body... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...idow_Decal.jpg |
update time: I have a clear baja body that I still need to kut and mount, will get a photo of that up soon...
but what I do have is new photos of my micro t's chassis... I also made some new jumps/ramps... I made 2 of the one u can see my micro t on in the below photos... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_01.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_02.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_03.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_04.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_05.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../microT_06.jpg New Specs/ Parts list for the above micro t : - Atomicmods bb motor - Ball bearings - HR Alloy shock set (Blue Springs) - HR Alloy front skid plate - Threaded steel Wheel shafts - GPM Alloy Camber Links - GPM Alloy Rear Arms - HR Alloy Front Arms - HR Alloy Silver Ovals Rims 0ff/set - HR Front shock damper tower - GPM Rear shock damper tower - HR Losi Micro T Silver/blue Aluminum main chassis I am wroking on a newer smaller aluminum case, along with a new video, so I will update again soon... |

damn, thats a nice looking micro-t! if you don't mind me asking, how much performance gets sapped by all the aluminum weight?
|
Not sure... but the bit extra weight of the aluminum keeps the fast thing on ground more so it probs has better steering than it did before... lol...
New Update: I got a atomic type 1 body and painted it with some Custom Colour - Sapphire Fusion spray paint, which I backed with some Custom Colour - Jet black... I made a small video, to show the colour change from different views/ lights... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...lourFusion.jpg Body Photos: http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Micro-t01.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Micro-t02.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Micro-t03.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2.../Micro-t04.jpg Chassis Photos: http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...ChassisN01.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...ChassisN02.jpg The only thing I still need to get for the chassis is a alloy gear box and laterz on a BL set-up... |
