Ive been following you for a few years now. I love that you're testing new configurations all the time. What works for a full size snowmobile (dimensions, skis, track dimensions, center of mass, etc) may not work as well when it is scaled down. It is so much work to research this stuff and it is soooo cool you are doing it. With RC cars being as ridiculous as they are today it makes me wonder why Traxxas or one of the other big brands haven't figured out RC snowmobiles. Have you thought about increasing rotational mass for stability like RC motorcycles? (gyro effect) On full scale machines the rider provides a lot of stability by leaning which is tough to replicate on an RC. I think with you're determination, testing, and constant refinements, you will truly have an awesome RC Snowmobile that is incredibly fun to drive. Keep it up!

Thank you for being a pioneer for rc snowmobiles. I believe there will be a point in the future where we see your designs (or copies) in the mainstream rc game. Keep it up brother, God bless.

This is by far one of my favourite videos, I’ve always been curious what a longer track would be like on a real snowmobile and I guess this can shine some light on this, another awesome video Pascal, keep them coming

You should try to make a snowmobile with a controllable weight on top that shifts from side to side, simulating the weight of a driver!

Where the normal track ends and the extension begins, you should try kicking it up 5 degrees and see how much that affects it. Thank you for the Awesome video!

Pretty kewl, I was surfing sled vids and stumbled upon rc sleds 😁 That is one crazy sled if it was scaled to be driven by us 😁 Thumbs up good vid!

Should try adding little bit of weight to rear skid, wider skis, and paddles on track. Looks sick👍

lol! I had no idea there were RC snowmobiles. Very cool

Wow I didn’t realize how big these snowmobiles are!!! You are amazing

That was awesome man and that thing plows through snow, I think side by side it would win in that snow

Maybe you should try a track that have longer betvine the lugs, and specily lugs for deep powder snow. Like a modern deep powder snowmobile

Maybe try removing some lugs to create bigger gaps that will make removing the snow easier? Mtn sleds normally have huge gaps between paddles for that very purpose. Great video! 👍🏼

Merci Pascale d'avoir partagé ton projet avec nous. Tu a inspirer mon projet Snow Strider, une motoneige qui va mesurer environ 25 pouce de long. Le plus dure c'est le capot mais Fusion 360 vas réglée le problem. Lâcher pas la patate tu fais du bon travail.

Your analysis on the track with how the snow and the luxe grip sounds fairly accurate unbelievable, but if you are going to give scaling perspective keep in mind that the fluff you're driving that snowmobile in to scale would be probably be like 4 feet of champagne powder to real snowmobile. Cool vid

SWT next?

Should let Ross Robinson give it a spin.... he will tell ya what it needs next!!! Nice work, love your videos

i think that if some thing was like that in real life it would be like the Polaris RMK 174" with an track extension and that would be absolutely crazy

wow that is so neat there

I need one of these sweet Sleds... we just got 12 inches of fresh snow in central Iowa !!

I need something like this to get me through the winter months

Man this is awesome,we were talking about this at work the other day and now u upload a video! Wicked buddy shes a brute!

Super cool stuff subbed

It certainly has plenty of power. What about going wider with the track and/or skis? Great vid ... thanks.

so there's a probability you'll see this comment but i've been thinking about getting a rc sled and making a rider that works as a counter balance so it could make driving a little more fun! also this comment was made drunk at 10 at night :))

Will we ever get a chance at buying the 1/5 files. You are doing some amazing stuff man i love your videos and innovation.

The problem is when you increased the length of the track, the weight of the machine is spread out across a bigger suface area which is making the snowmobile “float” on the top of the snow. The easiest thing to do would be to increase the depth of the lugs, Just for the hell of it, I would find out the weight of a mountain sled and divide that across the surface area of the full size track. I would also compare the lug depth compared to the length of the track. Do the math and you can figure out the PSI And compare it against your RC to see if you’re even in the neighborhood

thanks for your help with me all brothers and subscribers 🙏🙏🙏👍

Very cool mod. Now you should find a little action figure to mount on it.

Keep up the great work. I love to come here and watch your machines. Have you ever thought pitching your design to a hobby company. Also I’d get a patent for as much as you can so you could receive royalties.

Maybe paint the sled anything but white so it shows up on the cam. also needs LONGER lugs like a Mountain sled, the track is too long for the rest of the scale of the sled. that causes it to roll more from what i am seeing. I think for the deep powder you have to scale the entire SLED UP not just the track because sometimes when we scale things down, they dont react the same as in a 1:1 rig. looking fwd to seeing more from you,

I wish I had one of those Rc snowmobile

That moment when you see someone do something that you always wanted to do (Regarding the rc snowmobile)

Probably carves better cuz more skid deeper in snow holding it up. Sleds are awsome keep up the great work.👍

A full scale snowmobile would compact the snow for more traction .. You have no rider weight input .. I think a wider ski stance would help to make up for no rider..

Weight over the track will do wonders

Air flow along the top of the track is important too ..otherwise snow gets jammed as its forced thru and wastes power

Nice video man it is a very nice rc snowmobile. But you kinda have a dutch accent are from the netherlands by any chanes or not.

Good job pascal 👍

Wonder if more weight in the track would help? Maybe put tire weights on the skid to help it?

Probably need todo another video with this long track. and take it out on the water and see if it does good?

I think you should make the track a lil bit longer.

We're supposed to be getting up to 12 inches of snow tomorrow. I need to take the thundercat out.

Widen the front skies

You should attempt 3D printing a classic sled, like a 93 Indy or something like that

U shld add alot wider stance for the front skies! Thatd be awesome and possibly perform better?

Perhaps try to get some of the weight closer to the rear, might be good t try to get the battery pack somewhere mounted up inside the skid.

Can’t get enough track speed it seems.

Love your videos!

I need to ride this..only true weighted scenario that is legit

Do you think putting a rider on it for a little extra weight will help it rip better? Extra weight to put track down.

How frikin cool

I think the RC snowmobile It's just too light Versus a real snowmobile it would be compacting the snow down

My damn printer isn’t big enough for the damn skid! Time to upgrade my printer! HAH

Power to weight ratio vs. track surface area.

Add the simulated rider weight, would that help just saying

I need to make the back longer with the track

How about you can make the biggest rc snowmobile in the world Edit: how about a fat track

So I wonder what would happen with huge lugs instead of a long track

So do you sell the entire snowmobile or just the kits?

How did you make this dude that thing is insane

I feel the same about the comment a couple under mine that you need weight and longer lugs like a simulated 3 inch lug ?

Can you made a lynx glx59000

Nice i relly whant that

What about a taller, or more paddle style lug on the printed track. Your other models tear threw and wheelie. Is that because the track is shorter ?

Trop COOL

I want one so bad

It would be funny if you modified the new brp side by side écouter car

We’re can I get a rc snowmobile like a good one

How can I purchase one of these Rc snowmobiles? Do you sell them?

You should try making a 1/4 scale sled with a gas powerd engine like the 1/4 scale cars have. THe "chainsaw/weadeater" 2stroke engines. That way you get the sweat 2stroke smell real sled makes in real life.

Printing this in white was an odd choice..... lol , cool though.

When can we buy them

I been looking for one but all are not good except yours 😂

Hey I was just wondering if I am aloud to bring my alpha 6 to school for a project

Can there be a place where you can buy the snowmobile

Hi I would like to buy a Rc snowmobile, Can I get tips on which I should have?. I want it to be able to step up and a lot of power. And I then buy cases of course from you

Where’re do you get this snowmobile at

did you make this

Where you by this snowmobil

Where can I buy arc sled that goes that fast

This is interesting

Having bigger lugs would help a lot....

He could’ve made the skidoo a darker colour for us to see better lol

Where i can buy good rc snowmobile

Nice modification

are you planning on selling those sleds

What size motor do you use? brushed or brushless?

So you mean I just spend $15k on a useless sled when I could have just bought an RC sled for $250?

Need longer lugs and a bit more weight to the whole machine

have you done the actual long track mod? i printed the long track rails for my build wanted opinions

I think your next step is to make a rider!

The turning would be hard

where do you buy these? And would you sell one?

You should get a little dude to put on it it would look cooler

From where is that track from? How can i get one.

where do you buy carpet

To long of a track it’s making the nose sink into the snow.. gonna have to put a faster kv motor in it to make it somewhat work. Or put weight on the back.

So you basically made a chainsaw with skis finally

where can i buy one?

How much would it be for u to make me one?
