Linekillaz™ — Fri, 09 Dec 2022 14:11:14 +0000

After the Grind 431™ V1 LCG OD Transmission, – which is a groundbreaking and unique product of its kind – 10 months of hard work followed, which resulted in PROCRAWLER® presented the Grind™ 431 V2 LCG OD Transmission. Grind™ 431 V2 is even lighter, thinner, and better than its predecessor.

69G TOTAL WEIGHT WITH SKID

Insanely light. The 48g net weight and 69g total weight with skid makes the Grind™ 431 V2 LCG OD Transmission the lightest ever in its class.
V1 version already was super light and it’s unbelievable that the V2 version surpassed even that.

ALL-NEW HYPER LIGHTENED, HARDENED AND PINNED CUSTOM CHROMOLY GEARS

Grind™ 431 V2 gears represent a new generation. They lightened their design as much as possible and thanks the pinned mounting they are way narrower than former generation ones.
However, the gears are still super hardened and made of ultra strong and durable chromoly material while the M0.5 modulus teeth ensure ultra smooth running.

31% SWEET SPOT OVERDRIVE

The PROCRAWLER® team spent quite a few hours testing on the rocks and came to the conclusion that 31% as the sweet spot when it comes to overdrive rate. That is why this at value was retained in the Grind™ 431 V2 as well.

CAREFULLY ENGINEERED GEAR RATIOS AS ALWAYS

Gear ratios must be carefully engineered to properly serve the purpose of use. They spent a lot of time determining the exact value to perfectly fit the needs of pro scale rock crawling.

DEDICATED 6º RE-ANGLED & STRAIGHT SKID OPTIONS

Grind 328: Ultra Light LCG OD Transmission By PROCRAWLER®

Linekillaz™ — Tue, 21 Jun 2022 23:00:00 +0000

PROCRAWLER® team recommends their new Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission to real connoisseurs. The product was tested by none other than the well-known Massimo “Max” Bonvini. Massimo is the only Factory Driver on the team who designed the Flatgekko™ C23 Maxxx™ LCG Chassis System along with the Team.

Let’s see after the Grind 431™ LCG OD Transmission what the team showed up!

Straight Front. Portal Rear.

Business in the front, party in the rear. The Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission was designed specially for the more and more trending straight front and portal rear axle performance setup.

Having the significant part of the RTR (Ready-To-Run) weight in the front, the straight axle keeps your COG (Center Of Gravity) as low as possible while the portal gives tons of clearance with somewhat higher COG but having less weight in rear.

28% Overdrive On Your Hand

They say that the overdrive is one of your best friends when it comes to competition level scale rock crawling. And overdrive is maths. That’s why they engineered the perfect overdrive rate for the Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission and your straight front / portal rear setup.

Lightened & Hardened Custom Chromoly Gears

They had been researching the the proper gears for the Grind ™ 328 LCG OD Transmission for long months, but not finding it, so they decided to design and manufacture the perfect gearing on their own.

The all-new lightened gear design and the hardened chromoly material together make the Grind™ 328 gearing super light, strong and durable while the M0.5 modulus teeth ensure ultra smooth running.

Photo: PROCRAWLER

2.5mm Toray® Premium High-Grade Graphite Motorplate

The already known and well-proven ultimate Toray® premium high-grade graphite material was used for the motormount plate. This is ultra light but still super strong, as we already experienced at the C23 V2/V2R chassis rails, all in all the perfect motorplate material.

Ultra Light High-Tech Nylon Polymer Housing

Crafting the lightest but still powerful LCG OD transmission in its class requires careful engineering when it comes to materials. Net weight only 54 gramm, and with skid 85 gramm.

That’s why they decided to use the super light and rock solid PA12 high-tech nylon polymer paired with the high-end SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing technology for the housing of the Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission with metal inserts for long lasting threads.

Custom Stainless Steel Shafts

Smooth running depends on several elements of a competition level LCG transmission. One of them are the properly designed and manufactured shafts.

Therefore, they engineered the perfect custom stainless steel shafts for the Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission to support its butter smooth running on a long term basis.

High-Performance & Durable Bearings

They have looked into and tested dozens of bearings until they found the perfect ones for the Transmission.

The high-performance and durable oiled stainless steel bearings run smooth like a breath of fresh air but are resistant to dust and mud.

Carefully Engineered Gear Ratios

Gear ratios must be carefully engineered fitting the purpose of use and the straight front / portal rear setup needs a special care.

PROCRAWLER® R/C team defined the gearing of the Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission to fit the needs of this special scale rock crawler setup.

The Front Transmission Output Ratio is 1.95:1, and the Rear Transmission Output Ratio is 1.35:1.

Photo: PROCRAWLER

Dedicated C23 V1/V2/V2R, 6º Re-Angled & Straight Skid Options

The tranny is a seamless fit for their C23 V2R LCG Chassis System for sure but was designed to also fit any chassis rails no matter if having angled or straight skid line. That’s why the Grind 328™ is available with C23 V2R, 6º re-angled and straight skid options. It’s up to us to decide!

Made In Europe

Grind™ 328 LCG OD Transmission is designed in-house by the engineering artists of Team PROCRAWLER® in Hungary/Europe.

High-quality production is processed on state-of-the-art Hungarian and Italian 3D printers and CNC machines so the Grind 328™ is crafted of the finest that the EU has.

Wrap-Up

Grind™ 328 Transmission is the ultimate LCG OD transmission for your straight front and portal rear scale rock crawler setup.

Vanquish VS4-10 Phoenix Portal: New VFD Twin Transmission & F10 Portals

Linekillaz™ — Wed, 17 Nov 2021 07:00:00 +0000

Vanquish Products announced the new VS4-10 Phoenix Portal high performance 4WD truck in 1/10-scale and comes in kit form.

The VS4-10 Phoenix Portal is the first platform to feature the Vanquish Products VFD Twin transmission (patent pending) and F10 Portal Axles.

The VFD Twin incorporates Selectable Overdrive Shifting and a 3-position dig unit into one compact package. The molded F10 Portal Axles utilize a high clearance design which minimizes the size of the pumpkin and maximizes clearance around the C-hub and knuckle. Connecting the VFD Twin to the F10 Portal Axles are the ISD10 driveshafts. The ISD10 Driveshafts have machined CV style joints at each end with molded splined shafts between them for smooth and efficient performance.

About VS4-10 Phoenix Portal

The 3-piece Phoenix body includes the VRD1 Rear cage assembly allowing for a variety of configurations. Removable bed sides expose the rear cage for a more aggressive appearance. Molded grill, front and rear headlight buckets, hidden body posts with hinged design. Full high detailed interior.

The VS4-10 chassis is developed to work with the VFD Twin transmission to keep the overdrive and dig servo low on the platform. The panhard mount on the chassis is made from machined aluminum to withstand the impacts of severe trail conditions. Molded shock towers capture the top of the 80mm Incision S8E Shocks in double shear for maximum support. Narrow molded front and rear bumpers maximize clearances while improving approach and departure angles.

The Incision S8E Scale Shocks feature a larger 8mm bore for increased dampening. The increased volume reduces internal shock pressures for longer seal life. Dual molded X-Ring lower shock cartridge provides more sealing surfaces than standard o-rings. Threaded shock bodies allow for a wide spring preload range. Offset lower shock pivot balls allow for greater flexibility for tuning shock angles.

VFD Twin Transmission

The VFD Twin Transmission (Patent Pending) kit is an evolution of the original VFD. Taking the same balance of performance, scale appearance, strength, and adding industry first features. The VFD Twin comes equipped with selectable overdrive and rear dig. Twin shifting transfer case utilizes replaceable bearing plates, a brass pivot for the shift arms, and chromoly shift slides. Borrowing from our proven Hurtz dig, the VFD twin shifting is smooth and reliable. On the fly overdrive shifting from 6.5% to 33% makes an immediate change to the driving characteristics and tuning options. The VFD Twin transmission places the motor forward and as low as possible.

F10 Portal Axles

The F10 Portal axles benefit from Vanquish Product’s years of experience in making the industry’s best aluminum axles. The molded F10 Portal axles feature an ultra rigid design with an integrated truss that ties both ends of the axle together, as well as brass inner reinforcement tubes to add more strength and provide some weight down low to the vehicle.

Wrap-Up

This combination provides performance advantages never before offered in a scale kit of its kind.

Based on the proven SCX10™ III, the SCX6 chassis might be considered its big brother. The frame is stamped steel two piece rail on each side and composite cross braces strengthen the frame and the body. A chassis mounted steering bracket is fitted up front and here is also a radio box.

AR90 Sraight Axles

The SCX6™ includes AR90 “Standard” axles with a heavy-duty spool. The durable, three piece axle housing is reinforced by a molded truss up top, and extra triangulation below, making this a solidly built, rugged design.

3-Link Front/4-Link Rear Suspension

For optimal handling, the SCX6™ suspension has a three-link Panhard front and four-link rear suspension setup. The front suspension has been optimized to reduce bump steer, while the rear four-link reduces torque twist. It also helps with steep off-camber climbs by having the proper amount of anti-squat and roll characteristics. The four-link system also aids against suspension wrap-up in high power applications. All links are metal including the steering. All pivot points are on stainless steel balls that provide a durable, long-lasting suspension point.

Aluminum Adjustable Coilover Shocks

The oil-filled shocks have aluminum threaded bodies and a single coilover spring. The shocks are tunable for achieving the best dampening rate. The large bore size creates more fluid volume for better performance. Additional mounting points allow you to further fine tune your suspension settings.

WILDBOAR™ Driveshafts

SCX6 front and rear driveshafts feature a design with a large diameter cross pin (3.5x17mm) along with an M6 Screw Shaft for added strength. A center splined slider floats between each end of the monster 17 mm Diameter drive shafts!

Universal Joint Axles

The front universal joint axles provide more steering, and smoother action for a higher performing, efficient drivetrain.

SPEKTRUM™ 1200KV Sensored Brushless Motor

The included Spektrum™ system includes a waterproof sensored motor and ESC, developed especially for the SCX6 and its crawler style application. The ESC is rated at 120A, and is fully programmable with the use of our optional Spektrum™ Smart ESC Programming Update Box (SPMXCA200). The 1200Kv motor is larger than most sensored motors with dimensions of 56mm in diameter and 84mm in length.

Two-speed Metal Gear Transmission

Out of the box, the Axial® SCX6 Jeep® JLU Wrangler 4WD RTR is configured for two speeds with high and low gears. A Spektrum™ S614 Metal-Gear Servo is included for the two-speed linkage.

SPEKTRUM™ S905 Steering Servo

Included and installed, the waterproof Spektrum™ S905 Large-Scale Metal-Gear Servo produces impressive torque (537.72 oz-in at 6V, 555.50 oz-in at 7V) for responsive, dependable steering control. The chassis will also accept larger 1/5 scale servos, if desired, with the included adapter.

SPEKTRUM™ FIRMA™ Crawler 120A Sensored Brushless Smart ESC

The factory-installed, waterproof Firma™ Crawler 120A Smart ESC delivers power and intelligence all-in-one — no additional vehicle modules or links required. This brushless ESC gives your SCX6 Jeep® JLU Wrangler 4WD the ultimate drive while feeding important telemetry data straight to your DX3™ transmitter in real time.

SPEKTRUM™ DX3™ 2.4GHz DSMR® Transmitter

The included Spektrum™ DX3™ radio features exclusive DSMR® technology for superior range, response, and interference resistance. It’s also fully compatible with the Smart telemetry potential provided by the vehicle’s installed Spektrum™ Firma™ 120A Smart ESC.

SR515 DSMR® Receiver

Built around frequency-agile DSMR® technology, the SR515 receiver delivers superb range and response, especially in noisy RF environments where a solid 2.4GHz link is crucial. Not only is the 2.4ghz link solid, this model also implements our lightning fast 5.5ms frame rate, providing a quicker, low-latency connection for the pro-level enthusiast.
