Full build thread, plenty of pictures and details. :nod:

this thing looks like its ready 2 do a burnout

yesyesyesyesyesyesyesYESSS!

Seriously, I had seen part of the build before, but it just looks so sweet, great work. :roll_eye:

wow i am thinking there is going to be a new speed record lol get that thing on a dyno man!

that is amazing.....

that looks amazing! how does it perform?

Well, if you read the thread, Its not finished. Im making a custom chassie, and have yet to order the parts, like li-pos, nelly, and wheels.

But other than that, search youtube for tamiya gearboxes and you should see on that mentions a highspeed. thats my video, showing the mod i made to the gear boxes.

Also, search youtube for Dual motor xmod, and I have a video of the last version.

that thing will be sweet.... when you finish it of course. good work...

thats VERY cool man...especially if you throw 2 aftermarket motors in it....nice man!

Thanks guys,

As far as motors, Ill just use these to messaround, but I might buy http://xmodworld.com/modules.php?nam...=22614&start=0, These. Its dirt simple to change motors in this gear box, they both just slide in place, and clip in. So sliding to 180 motors would be a breeze, and Id just have to make a new mount.:nod:

Oh man that is so sweet! I've been thinking for a while now about putting together a dual motor xmod my thinking was to have a motor for the front and a motor for the back wheels rather than having the two motors powering a 4WD system, the two motors powered of the same electronics package so when you hit the gas both motors turn over at the same time I could just be talking crazy but that dual motor kit is sweet!

Well Im banking on that the stacked Nelly will survive 2 motors. Which... I havent figured out. So thats why Im just starting with these little Tamiya motors 1st.

If that works, then both will run from the same EP.:nod:

I like the '55 nomad body. It hides all that custom power well...

That would be pretty quick running off of 4 liths.

Lithium Polymer:bigwink:

janikphoto-I had to get a wagon body to fit all this under. That, and stationwagons are cool. I was looking for and older like, 76 station wagon, but seeing this Nomad, I had to get it.

AWESOME!! after you get it done you should put whellie bars on it if it is a dragster of course

how much were the motors and where u get em from

Hm... I swear those are the same photos from the last update, which was a while ago...

Now to be less critcal of you, how's it going. With being grounded from the computer, you shoulda had plenty of time to work on it?

woah, never seen that before
i say that you'll NEED a wheelie bar on the back with all that torque

Thats a nice looking Nomad. How long do you think before its done? Have you given any thought to body color yet? Candy Apple Red would look hot on that body.:nod:
