Let's start a thread about Truggies.

What is/are your favourite truggy?  I have been seeing alot of these and they are becomming popular in HK as well.  With the release of the X1-CRT, HPI Lighting and the Kyosho ST or different conversion kits for the Hyper8, 777, MBX, I am sure it will be a HIT in HK.

Let's talk about Truggies!!!!

Oh ya.....feel free to post pics of awsome truggies too!!!

Oh yes Brother, this Mugen converted Truggy only has a relatively short A arms .... since it is converted from a Buggy.  A normal Truggy, as per description by Hong Nor, has a longer A arms on both sides, like what they made for their CRT ....  
作者: crunch    時間: 2005-12-29 23:55
Hey Brother Skyline!

I always had the impression that the wheel extender (the long hex) from the conversion kit accounts for the shortness of the buggy arms.  

Anyways, let's see your collection!!

No way!!  That is stright up "BUGGY"!!!

Remember....truggy = truck + buggy

But that thing does look fun.....but finding people to play with would be rather difficult.

hellfire, another name that I like so much.  HPI claims that this Hellfire are extremely light weight, and so if an onroad engine is used in this Hellfire, and when running on onroad, it could be very fast right??  
作者: jackleu    時間: 2005-12-30 10:50
what is truggy please?
is it  buggy with a truck shell????
作者: crunch    時間: 2005-12-30 11:03
There're actually many different versions for the definition of Truggy.

But it all comes down to what you said.  A truggy is a term derived from combining the words "Truck" + "Buggy" = "Truggy".

Basically it is a car which has the construction and layout of a buggy, but with a truck shell and MT/Truck wheels.  The width of the car is wider then a buggy due to the extended arms and the width of the wheels.  In my opinion, truggy is different from Monster Trucks as the CG is lower for a truggy and doesnn't climb or crawl rocks.

I hope I am right.........  Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

Cool guys!!!  I just picked up a CRT tonight!!  Can't wait to put the whole kit together.

Just a question, what steering servo are you guys using?  Any recommandations?  

So far I was recommanded the Futaba 9351.

Congratulation man !!!      Quickly assemble the car and bash around la .....  What engine U want to use??  BTW, the servo I only use the 13kg ones from KO and it performs very well .....  
作者: crunch    時間: 2006-1-2 23:05
Ya...I want to build the kit ASAP, but I wanna wait till the weekend so I can do it in one day.

Engine wise, I am still considering.  I am torn between the OS V-Spec and the STS, SH .28

Technically, this is my first nitro car, so I want something which I can maintain with ease.  The STS and SH engines are cheap, but alot of maintenance work is required for it to perform good and last?

So now, I have to look for a steering servo and an engine.  What's a good budget servo?  What model is your's, brother Skyline?

Buy OS V-Spec la, you will not regret! Or Sirio Kanai 2 is pretty fast! You can expect the STS and SH engine won't last long! But it is budget choice definitely!
作者: crunch    時間: 2006-1-3 15:09
How much are the V-specs going for anyways?  

I know the SH and STS .28 engines can be nad for less the $1000?

Thanks~
作者: Skyline    時間: 2006-1-3 20:13
Yes, the SH and STS are cheap in the market, but don't last for long ....  and the OS is now putting a lot of different models in the market and the prices are not that expensive.  Can't be a bad choice anyway ....  
作者: Skyline    時間: 2006-1-3 20:15
Oh yes, btw I've also bought the OS engine man ....  
作者: crunch    時間: 2006-1-3 21:22

OH brother, I have to say that I like the OS better, at least for the shape of the heatsink and the pattern that has imprinted on top ..... so nice .... and detailed ...

The STS that I've used costed around $0.7K, and the OS cost around $1.1K ...  and STS is .28 while OS is .30 ....  I hate to say that but, haha, OS should be better in my opinion ....    STS is just good enough for me to fool around on the beach la

Hey brother skyline~~

No.....I have been so busy with friends from overseas.  I am only 20% done with the car (Just finish the diffs and front end).

Still deciding what engine to buy....so many choices........

- STS - .21, .28
- SH - .21, .28
- OS - .21, .30

作者: Skyline    時間: 2006-1-13 14:27
haha, fair enough, take your time and enjoy the building process ....   

Although I use the STS 28, I also bought the OS 30 .....  To me, I wouldn't go for anything for 21 class or below in the truggy .... I want to try some high power stuff ....  
作者: crunch    時間: 2006-1-13 15:07
Ha~~ That I can expect from you, you use to drive all those high powered trucks! CEN, Savage, LST...etc etc!!

I'll see how much money I earn from "lai see" during Chinese New Year and will buy my engine accordingly....hahahaha

The STS .28 does sound attractive at that price.  I might just pick one up and learn how to tune it from you!

Yes, I do like high power engine for the trucks, and I just love the engine sound when the truck is at full speed .... but I have to risk the total damage of the engine piston because the engine might be too lean ....    

I got the STS 28 at $7XX at 2 months ago, and not sure about the price now ...  could be even cheaper man ....
作者: crunch    時間: 2006-1-13 17:10
Ya..power can be a good thing to have, but too much is no fun either.

That's why I have been thinking to start from a .21

The STS D21B and D21T have gotten very positive reviews with excellent quality and sounds like a good choice for the money.

I shall go check out KWS this week if possible.  I just hope I'll have the time.

Hey Brother Skyline,

You mentioned before you have a SH .28 now, is it the black head or the red head?  I have read that the black head has rod problems in the long run after a few gallons of fuel.

The Red head PRO version is suppose to be VERY powerful and good.  

It looks good too!!!

Oh yes brother Crunch, I think I have typed the wrong brand, sorry.  What I've is the STS 28 engine, the heatsink is black and the engine so far is OK.  Very powerful and I need to put some shim below the heatsink to decrease the power.  

I've also bought another engine, the OS 30, very beautiful heatsink (got flower pattern on top) and I will break in this one very soon ....  Just go and get one power plant for your Truggy la ....

Actually....I am the one who got things mixed up.....Sorry...LOL...

I will get the engine very soon....just not this week....I have drained my bank account these 2 months!!!

Can't wait to get this thing up and running....must plan a trip to FSY then.
