Harold's RC Cars
Terminator Dune TrikeAnother spare parts build. I started out with a .750" x 1.5" x 8" length of aluminum for the chassis. The Spektrum steering servo resides in the chassis. The servo sets at an angle which causes the outer tire to lift off the ground when turning. The front dual 1.6" sand tires use a 3 pc. wheel riding on 4 bearings, and old Team Associated rc10 shocks. For the back motor mount and shock mounts I started with a 3.5" x 3.5" x 3/4" piece of aluminum and kept cutting it down to get things to fit. The motor is a 860kv Exceed Rocket with a 60a esc. The r&p are the Kyosho 3:1 connected to a RC4WD 1:1 transfer case. Axles are from a Tamiya big rig, the rear hubs are from a Team Associated SC10 connected to lower aluminum control arms, and the shocks are old Team Associated RC10. 3.2" TMaxx tires mounted on an old pair of aluminum wheels. The steering wheel turns with the front fork. The seat is a Axial Corbeau. I thought it needed an action figure so I went with the Terminator. |
