DuraTrax Mini Quake RC Truck Turbo Charged Makeover!
I picked up a used 1/18 scale 4WD RC truck made by duratrax called the Mini Quake. After a little TLC it is now called the MINI THUNDER QUAKE. MINI THUNDER QUAKE MODS…. 19T Pinion Gear For Motor. 40T Spur Gear For Drive Shaft. Blue Aluminum CV Drive Shafts Front and Rear. 2 Cell 7.4V 1300 mah Lipo Battery. Custom Painted Body. The truck ran about 15 mph before the mods and now runs around 21 mph. Almost all the upgrade parts can be purchased through the tower hobby web site. Thanks for watching.

Thats quite a few trucks. Thanks for watching and the comment Animallover2456.
i am going to put all 8 of my rc trucks on youtube. by the way i had 40 rc trucks in my whole life
I got it off of Ebay. I think it was $75 made by bushnell.
where did you get the speed meter thingy
Yes, it was really in need of some RC TLC oddzeee.
ROFLMAO
The First Body Looks Like It Was Coloured with WaterPaint!
It will be a little while. I have a couple other videos to crank out ahead of it. Stay tuned though and thanks for watching trx1961.
but how about a update?
Ok, sounds like a plan. Thanks miniman9194.
np, if u get a brushless, put the vid up, that would be sweet. you could even get just a brushed motor for it, that would move the little thing pretty quick. but ya good luck and have fun
Thats a great idea. Thanks for watching mniman9194.
put a brushless in that thing..woohoo
Not sure, I havent timed the runs on the lipo batteries, but it should be at least twice as long as the stock battery hondatmx.
does it run 15minute when it full charge?
It is not the best paint job, but it goes fast enough that you cant see the imperfections, lol..
Thanks for the comment trx1961.
love the paint job, simple, but cool
Thanks for watching and the comment trx1961.

Thanks very much. It was a pleasure to give this rc truck an upgrade x42bnx.
Glad you gave him a home man, props to you.
