Great truck. It's powerful and has great detail work thanks to you. Taking the box off lowered the center of gravity too.

[@Del350K4]

This setup offers all the flexibilty of a 2 - speed gearbox setup without the fragility - it must be one of the most capable WPL trucks around. I loved the mud montage - its near cinematic qualities worked well to show off your creation, and the truck´s capability shines through. By the waay, I was amused @ 3:45 by the way you made mention of "cable husbandry". It´s an excellent description : )

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks Del. It certainly gives you the slow crawl speed without compromising the top end too much. I love a good montage!(as you know lol). We use the term 'Wiring Husbandry' in the Aviation world, so I just said cable instead of 'Wiring' to reduce the amount of stick my work mates give me for using the term haha. By the way, the C34 is on its way. I'll email you the shipping details later.

[@wrightflyer7855]

@Tomley RC Garage, I'm 70 years old and will be ordering a B36KM when they become available next, possibly 15 Dec. and plan on doing some modifications during the build. Most mods will be to the suspension, but I really like the fender-mounted air filter and haven't been able to locate one. I don't do Facebook, so do you have any suggestions? Back in the 1980s I had a Kyosho Blizzard and a Kyosho 4WD/4WS, so I'm somewhat familiar with RC ground vehicles but most of my professional mechanical experience has been with bicycles and aircraft. That is one IMPRESSIVE truck you've built! Thank you. Wright Flyer, USAF (1968-1972)

[@captainchaos3053]

Wack a snow plough on the front and a spreader box up the rear!

[@thatsmyrc]

Very cool concept. This is the true way to up the power 💪🏼👍🏼 If you are able to spread the distance between motors apart (linear) and pitch them a smig you also will eliminate harsh angles on driveshafts. I had this concept brewing in head for a few different builds of mine. Just haven’t got around to designing it. awesome work awesome truck 🤓😎

[@TomleyRC]

Cheers dude. The rear motor is perfect for the rear axle as this has the modified bridge axle that raises the input, eliminating the harsh angle. The front could do with a tweak though. It's certainly my best WPL build so far (IMO) 🤘

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks Tony, always appreciate your kind words. 🤘🇬🇧

[@aljensen7779]

That's an intriguing design of power plant there, Phil. I notice you didn't seem to have any issue at all with torque twist. Are the motors counter-rotating, then? And are they entirely front/rear dedicated, or do they share a spur, somewhere?

[@TomleyRC]

Al, the motors do indeed counter rotate (well, I think they do) as well as being independent front/rear, the bridge (centre) axle is the new design that nearly eliminates all the twist in the axle. 🤘

[@WCPRCModelsCraft]

One motor front and one for rear wheels. But they are wired in parallel. You can actually rotate one motor without battery connected and it will actually turn the other motor. Although you need alot of torque to rotate the motors. I have thought about designing a lay shaft to connect them, but actually i find that it works in it's favour to not have physically connected driveline. Good for crawling. You could actually run dual esc seperately if you wanted. We are planning this on one of our 8x8 setups using same motor setup

[@indrafaisal7]

Cheers dude. If you want a 6x6, then go for this B36. For a 4x4 you have a few more options.

[@TomleyRC]

The Kit's for the B36 are really not much different. You get a Servo and soft tyres. I always recommend the RTR as it's really good out the box. But it all depends whether you are planning on upgrading and stuff.... or if you enjoy putting stuff together. 👍
