Yay!, MB4 truggy returns







My addiction to complexity of micro models are endless. Its not onlyfun to play with but its really interesting to see the structure and engineering they put in those little things. Today i manage to get another set of Anderson MB4 truggy 1/18 kit from my friend at cheaper price. Then i do some cleanup (the guys got it dirty..pitty the model) and do some proper fix. Added also new parts, painted the shell and get some custom high end electronics module and computer tune the engine. Taaaaa daaa... magnificent peice of engineering now run wild off-roading. Every corner of this models give rise to new inspiration for my 3d models creation. Below are the specification added for this truggy:

Specification:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Castle Creation: MAMBA 25 brushless Electronic Speed Controller

More performance and bling upgrades.


After gain budget doing some designs for customer i manage to chip in few budget for my MB4 truggy. Unlike last time this time it all about getting it more rigid, tougher, durable and longer runtime:

New stuff under the hood:
---------------------------------
-Turnigy 3700kv brushless motor sized 370 long case.
-Few sets of Rhino 3750mah 2s 25c lipo pack.
-3Racing and Yeah racing suspension, steering reinforcement parts.
-Yeah Racing Tornado motor cooling fan
-Atomic mods wheel drive shafts
-Sets of GRP racing on-road foam tyres (not on picture)
-HITEC HS225 MG mighty mini servo
-Anderson MB4 Carbon Graphite chassis
-LRP sets of pinion gears
plus dozen of spare parts...just incase if anything gone wrong when flying in the air.

Outdoors MB4 perform great after upgrades. longer runtime, huge torque power, better handling and spew more dirt into the air than before. On local track it did very well against 1/10 touring around the corners. Both on-road off-road gave huge satisfaction and made right choice to choose 1/18 scale then my 1/8 nitro. I'm looking forward to mount a video came next time for on-board driving action.

LRP SHARK aka ANDERSON MB4

Been runing this little critters for a month now after i sold off all my touring cars including parts and tools because this new ones are better both off-road an on-road. Small, portable, computerised high tech, jaw dropping power and speed not even any of our local real size supercar can catch up with it. Have both world latest technology and world most dangerous explosive power under the hood. Having going through several models throughout my secondary hobby lifespan i found this one an ideal racer both on-road and handling.

Specification:
-------------------------------
model: LRP SHARK 18/ANDERSON MB4
transmission: 4WD with 4 spider diff system
radio rx: Sanwa 2.4Ghz with fail safe
esc: Castle Creation - SIDE WINDER MICRO bushless ESC (upgraded software revision 1.17)
motor: Castle Creation CM2040 - 4200kv
Servo: HITEC Digital MG
power pack: GE-POWER 7.2v 25c Lithium Polymer
suspension: Oil shocks
------------------------------

What can i say, this is the most perfect rc model i ever own, everything custom built inside according to my driving style. The speed, power and computerised tuning is the most drooling factor to own one. Infact was a great machine to race against my rival on the race track...soon.
