I am here to present a project of a off-road performance vehicle ,

is not a standard project, is something rare,
the Italian Dream Team Factory, has made ​​another masterpiece!

The project is worth an accurate description of the parts:

-Alu-skid by The Milling
-Pure Spider-axle by Alex
-pro-Rock to front axle by Alex
-dig and transmission by Alex & The Milling
-kit raise / lower front end by Alex
-kit-rear sway bar by Alex

-dig servo Turnigy TGY-S712G

The name of the project, which may seem rather strange, actually synthesizes
more than ever "natural" the most outstanding feature of this Spider,
try to do a simple search of Atrax and after the R add "obustus" and you will understand


And now the photo to begin the pro-Rock just finished processing:

It 's all for now, but not before thanking all the friends in Italy,
Alex and The Milling for the splendid mechanical engineering,
Mago68 their active contribution to the development of the project from its inception,
Lo67 my mind that was inspiring especially the transmission
Angelo80 and for all the "stress test" that is significantly brought
 
Thank you, and I am happy that you enjoy this special material,
this project now is in a much more advanced, but I'm a very active user on the Italian forum Scalers and Crawlers,
in my free time also upgrade this 3d to give a chance to see even you who live so far away,
the capacity building that have specialists in Italy.

The name and logo of the manufacturers of these precision mechanical parts
are Alex Factory and The Milling:

As I said before, the project is now running, and on the rocks is impressive,
but also on all types of terrain the behavior is incredible...

Well, now I leave room for an upgrade,
all the pieces that you have seen now assembled 8)

Indeed. The cost would have a hard time exceeding the beauty and coolness factor of these things.
 
Just awesome man

Incredible work. Nice job. Can't wait to see a running video.

Thanks for the video you'll have to wait a little time .. :)

But let's get to the Wraith synthetic tuber ,
as was standard, measurements were perfect, but did not satisfy my ego :cry:..

So I opted for a customization, not overly invasive, but noticeable, something that would make it a little more aggressive
and that would allow me to slightly change width, height and length of the cage to perfectly fit the frame of Atrax.
Basically I reduced the height of the front of the car window applied two crossbars central
I've narrowed the cage to varying degrees in several places, changes all the back to have this effect
more rounded and inserted two stiffening cross at about 45 ° just in front of the rear wheels.
Here it is:

a brief comparison, to note the differences between the original frame and cage Wraith after my changes:

For my taste, I am very happy, now I just have to finish the cage,
the various joints of the cutting and sewing will be settled definitively ;-)
