Radioshack Enforcer modified from all stock parts
« on: March 11, 2011, 22:08:58 »
I built this enforcer for off-road from other radio shack cars to see how far you can go on stock parts. Now it performs night and day over what it did stock. It can climb anything and run 45mins all off factory late 90's parts.


1. swapped rear end for intruder rear end to cut the gear ratio in half and double the torque and run time.

2. locked both front and rear axles simply by super gluing the differentials.
 
3. upped the voltage from 7.2v to 1600mah 9.6v

4. swapped the motor out for one from a 1/14 new bright 99 silverado 9.6v. It makes more than double the low end power.

5. cut front bumper, removed battery door, simulated fuel tanks and rear bumper to improve ground clearance tremendously.

After building it up I decided to put a Tamiya Nissan king cab body I custom painted with full detail including tinted windows. I made custom mounts for it and set it up with velcro so I can pull it on and off anytime and it holds super tight when its on.

The truck is now much lighter, 4 times more powerful, runs 4 times longer and off-roads like never before all on stock driveline parts. The best part is its still using all its factory electronics and controller.

This is the truck radio shack could have built

More R/C cars than your local hobby shop

Old school is the only way to go
