Ok had a little play tonight ooohhh I like it Here are the specs

clodzilla ESP IV race truck. It includes a Futaba T2ER radio with a BB hitec H-S700 servo to handle the massive tires with super rooster esc. The trannies have been rebuilt with NEW bearings and have been regreased. Custom aluminum tray to hold the dual batteries and the radio gear. Aluminum shocks. Massive suspension travel. The motors are wired in parallel for longer run times and great power. The anti-sway kit is included if you want ot use it. A custom painted jug body and original clod body are included. Their is a custom battey tray as well that can hold two batteries. I will include a 1400 mah so you can get going right away.

The steering SUCKS I will have to find out what I can do about that and it does have 4ws open diffs standard gearing. So I will have too do some mods I think.

I wrote in one of the other threads that we should organise a state of origin between NSW and QLD Rock Crawling style.
Looks like there is a contender from Sunny Queensland.

Russell you can't handle US queenslanders. The Finger

Had a small play with the clod today and it goes ok but i will be pulling the rear diff out and locking it as well as getting some t8 or t9 gears for it. I got about 15 mins out of the battery that came with it. It's a 1400 milli amp 7.2 volt is that all you get out of these batteries or is this one fawked.

Crawling I get longer - but if it's just flat stick 15minutes would be about how long my 1400's last....

Ok I think I look too hard at it last night as It now has a locked rear diff. So it now climbs walls with alittle driving.Now all I have to do is get a t8 or t9 gear and plate and I should have low gearing. I will put some flex pics up when my puter is working again.
