Roborgs 1.9 Comp Tuber

[roborg5000]

With the new class starting I figured Id go the build route not the box deal. And why not use as much RC4WD parts as possible ;)

Mr.Pink1.9 tuber
RC4WD T-Rex60 Axles
(1) RC4WD Punisher shaft (for low weight up front)
RC4WD 90mm dual rate Scale shocks
Axial Tranny (hopefully R2)
55t motor
200oz or less servo
2cell lipo 910mah
ESC (FXR possibly, due to small size)
DX3R rx/tx
1.9 Python rims (soon)
Tires (TBA) :D


Doing a bunch of mock-up right now. Still need to get some inkpen springs for internals on the shocks for my droop setup
Tires and rims will be replaced .Python rims and tires im not sure of yet. That will require some testing.
Rear lower links need lengthened to cut down on axle steer. This will require cutting the skid a bit. Im still having thoughts on replacing it with delrin.
I need an R2 tranny to replace the Axial :o
Also waiting on Mike to send the lowerlink/shock mount upgrades and still waiting for the upper link mounts to be in stock :(
I am looking for quotes now on powder coating the Mr.Pink tuber as well. I have some panels I cut from Diamond Plate styrene that should look good.
More to come..............

Looks good. I guess having a baby has kept Mr. Pink from getting on the forums. I don't see him much.

Is this for the TSC 1.9 class.

I tried to email him to see if he was interested in building one but, no luck. I got this tuber off another member.
Yes this is for the TSC 1.9 class ;)

Changed the skid plate to allow for longer lower links, slicker surface area, and the ability to install my R2/2speed ;)
