I’m having trouble with trying to use 7mm hex and rims. Very frustrating! But other than that I love this rc crawler.

Very nice job. So inspirational. I enjoy learning to make my models look and function as well as yours. Thank u for sharing your personal thoughts time and your work. Cheers

Thank you for your efforts. Love mine. I have 2s NHL 450mah 70c 7.6v on HW 1060 with MEUS 44t 180 motor. Long run time, enough of power to drive away at walking speed on the trail. Shocks will make a lot of difference. Witn the weight of the truck oil shocks behave in a very realistic manner. Beadlock wheels with heavy weight inserts will balance the truck. The only issue I have are foams for the 55mm tires, too soft. Right now it has 68mm soft foams in a 55mm tire, good for the front but too soft for the rear. The steering g angle is at 45° with the radiolink electronics. I was planning to use dumbo rc for the lights receiver, now with the steering issue I'm not sure.

Thank you - so I will probably upgrade shocks. Steering angle does not have anything to do with the radio IMO. So what shocks, tires, wheels do you use?

[@vdel9036]

A beautiful body on a beautiful chassis. I also like the bouncy suspension system. So scale ! Maybe a little too much bouncy. Oil shocks should give a better control. Not a fan of the complicated light device, with all these ugly wires running inside the car. The poor steering angle absolutely needs some work. Can the drive shafts steer further ? Waiting for your next video about the RTR version you've ordered. Thank you !😉

[@donaldsneffe]

Thanks - will probably try to tune it a bit, steering, shocks... and then make a follow up video. The black Pickup RtR arrived about 2 hrs. ago - will do a short (? ;-) ) unboxing/first look video this evening and hopefully publish it tonight.
