My King Beetle...

Quote

Post by MonsterBeetleGuy » Tue May 01, 2007 3:14 pm

Just a pretty much stock King Blackfoot with a Monster Beetle body painted by a good buddy of mine in a Sand Scorcher theme. It has a Tamiya Sport tuned motor, DTX-4 ESC, and TXT-1 shocks and chrome King Blackfoot Rims with Pro-line Moabs. My buddy also added some Cul-tech billet mirrors and hand painted plates. The driver is nicely detailed too. I hope you enjoy it as much as me. It's a new built and will never be ran.

What makes the "king" blackfoot opposed to a standard blackfoot?

I'm having problems with my XX-4 keeping a clutch set.
I never had any problems when I was running a brushed motor-even a violent 8x1.
I installed a Mamba Max 5700kv brushless system and the clutch just keeps loosening up on me.
Even if I sock it...

Thanks for the help,JK,I'll definitely give that a try.

im looking at a picture of these on AE exploded view and it looks as if these king pins (asc9622) require screws(asc9645) in the end of them to secure them. Is this correct or is that screw in their diagram for something else.

Last post

The screw hold the pin is place. part of the head of the screw cover the pins holding it in.

About eight years ago my Parents bought me a second hand MRC Thunder King. The truck is amazing. It has two drive motors that allow the truck to traverse almost any obstacle. But I'm having an issue with battery life, or lack there of. The truck...

I am looking at upgrading to an ESC. As of right now I am still running the mechanical speed controller with a LiPo that I picked up for $15. Once I made that switch, I went from about one and a half minutes to 25. I cut it off at 25 minutes to...

I know a couple people here like the TK, so I thought I should start a thread on my new find. I feel like a molehill next to JHarris' mountain :wink: , but I got a very nice Thunder King in trade today. The body is flaking, but in decent shape, so I...

Ok... I impatiently installed an LMT 3100 motor on 14.8v (MGM Compro 8012-3s esc). It's a bullet for such an enormous truck. :shock:
I think I'm going to install a 2nd steering servo or I may try the A&L steering stiffening kit I got on eBay. It...

First post

Since I am in a holding pattern for my RC10 Graphite I acquired, I have decided to start thinking about restoring a King Cab that came in the same lot.

I'd like to get it in running condition but shelf queen status is good too.

I think all I need...

Last post

Screw it. For the amount of time and outrageous prices I can get a runner for about the same as the parts I need.

Going up for sale.

Just want to see what you guys think of me trading my 2009 buggy champ used(about 20 packs)for a new built never ran tamiya nissan king cab. Does it seem like a even trade?

That's exactly the reason I was thinking :D
