My Top Secret project revealed!
 

Here she be! My Twin Engine, Twin Cell, AWD dragster is complete and boy is it fast! now I just need to fit it with a body, and its about the perfect length for "The Buster" A HotWheels truck I have...Any questions?

Whoa! How many batteries are in there. I'd like to see that with an r-spec and some K.I.T. gears and maybe dustn's direct drive mod! All you need is a real cool body.

For now its just 2 batteries (2.4V) with two 2.6 motors and light 'teal' gears. And I'm trying to find a picture of the body....

Eventually, I'd like to upgrade to 3 cell (3.6V) and 2 R-Spec motors. What do the KIT gears do? and what is the Direct Drive mod? I've never heard of it

And heres the body for it:

How did you reverse the polarity in the motor? It looks like they wouldn't turn in the same direction. Or are my eyes just foolin me?

I'm wondering about the steering. Doesn't look like there is any.

actually, all I did was reverse the wires...the rear motor has regular wires, and the motor that pulls in reverse has them switched around. I actually did that on accident to one of my clones, I reversed the polarity goofing around, and then I tried reversing the wires and it ran fowards again.

:( No, sadly I couldnt fit AWD and steering, so I cancelled out the whole steering...its over-rated anyways :p Its a straight-line dragster.

K.I.T. gears are from K.I.T. Racers and some parts are interchangable. They have low gear ratios like 3.43:1. The direct drive mod is where you mod the place where you snap in the axle so you don't need an idler gear and it's direct pinion gear to axle gear.

You definatly need some higher rpm motors and another bat or 2. I actually thought of this months ago but without steering it seemed pointless. It should be a nice lil dragster though. Good job.

What would you recommend for Motors? I will def. add another battery (3 cell will probably be most, I dont want to fry it seen as 2 motors and 3 cells are all on one PCB) but first I just wanted to get it up and running.

I'm loving the perfection 3.8 motors from toyeast. I also here good things about the rspec from this site (hint,hint,nudge,nudge) ;) :D

this kinda stuff scares me sh!tless.... and i have nooo idea how you guys can pull this kinda mod..

but you get my vote for the maddest mod around... aint never seen that kinda setup before, so Congrats man....

does it go straight..? :D

And the question of the night goes to......YOU! lol...well, it does have a faint drift to the left...but thats to be expected, because right now the two chassis' are held toghether by electical tape (:D) because my car is in the shop so i cant run to get the proper supplies...lol

And, it doesn't really take a whole lotta know-how to do this kinda mod...just time, lots of it, I've been working on this project for weeks and weeks, costed me about $60 (I had to buy a Soldering Gun, More chassis', more motors, gears, etc.) But I should be able to replicate it pretty cheap now that I have the supplies.

madness dude... i still say, that's insane...

are you going to putty the bodys together? i was thinking, maybe make a flex point in the middle where you could adjust "steering" trim... you know what im saying rite? just in case you bang into something and knock out the alignment..

gj d00d... oh, and i know there's some real big truck fans out there, (pig, im lookin ur way...) but i would be thinking dragster body...

aaand... do the wheels turn at the same speed? even if the motors are rated the same, they often have discrepancies.... and with the motor choice, i'd go perfection 3.8 too.. i never tried it, but i've heard nothing bad about them!
