Hi guys
After trying my Sand Master in basic stock form first with mixed success! (See link at bottom of page)
Well here she is with some juicy Hop Ups added!!

Now that's more like a Sand Master!!! So much better!;-)

I have added a metal pinion, 17X2 orion motor, sealed the Spur gear cover but most important of all l put a set of Proline Sling Shot Sand tyres on this baby! I added pair of FTXs on the front but will probably replace these at some point! Will see!

How did she go??? Much much more traction in soft sand she ploughed through the sand with real guts!! Forgot to say I have converted the friction shocks to oil filled shocks too! This helped the car a lot to ride smoothly over the big bumps keeping those Sling Shot tyres on the Sand!
This Buggy deserves its name now! Plus bonus was no sand got into the gear box or in with the spur gear and pinion!;-)


One thing though! The battery tray is still a pain in the butt!
But have got a technique that seems to work!
Thanks for looking folks all the best guys!
Cheers MAD-BEE:-)

Cheers buddy its a very fun buggy to drive and looks great!
I was looking at Proline Sand Paws after seeing your cool Blitzer but they are quite wide but a set of Proline Sling Shots fits nicely so that wàs it! On they went!

Hey these Proline tyres are great mate!
I got mine from Modelsport uk for £24 delivered!
I could do with a pair of fronts next like your yellow Blitzer has but not so wide!
Thanks mate.

Looks great with the orange rollcage. And as you said on my Sandmaster-pix: Great value for money

Awesome. I've got a pair of slingshots shod on a set of rims for my Kyosho Turbo Scorpion. Not had a chance to run them yet but this gives me motivation to get it on some sand.

I highly recommend them my friend! These slingshots really are good this buggy was going anywhere l pointed it!
