Exclamation wheelbase mismatch

Speed demon
great effort on customization...!

As for my crawler, pic 1 (side angle), looks like Tamiya should have made the body shell longer where the wheelbase is concerned... those concerned about scale looks sure tak berapa berkenan, me included. From other angles, it's ok.

managed to mount the axle last night. But too late to post pics.

The delrin skid plate is custom made for double triangulation.
Linkage is home made using 6mm alloy rod.

Yet to be mounted is the MAMBA MAX, 80T motor, Spektrum rcvr and HITEC 5955TG servo. Will have to visit tire shop to but the balancing lead to add weight into wheels.

Also, body panel is still not mounted... will keep you guys posted..

BTW, any other crawler here??? come on... show what u have???

Default A'lil update on my tuber Scorpion

After trying some materials for the body panel, I went for some plastic sheet. It is flexible and easy to work with....

here's some pics without electronics. Still waiting for a 10A voltage regulator to power up the servo. The Hitec HS 5955TG is capable for 24kg/cm and so the current at stall on 6.0V is around 4.2A. The MAMBA Mac has a BEC only for 3A... this will smoke your esc to useless matchbox. The 10A BEC is from Castle Creations. It is designed to gives 10A max with a wide range input voltage. Bonus is, the BEC voltage is adjustable. The max input voltage is 24V..amazing!

Yo Speed,

Nice 1! Just make sure it doesn't stop there ...

Edited:
I just bought these: "RCD-HL 1:10 Suspension Shocks". RM75 with shipping, some more adjustable, alu body. Items arrived, 1 bent rod, shock travel is not too smooth.. but acceptable for SLOW CRAWLER....

yiela,

Yes and No..

You can convert the current truck into crawler.. but, to do this, you need to have some fab skill...

For crawling, independent arm is not the choice. We normally go for those solid axle like the TLT and Clod or AX10 Scorpion.

Also, the differential effect is not desired or required at all. Most will go for "locked" diff.

As for the

1. Hex is 17mm - you need to convert it to accept 12mm so you can mount the beadlock wheels or depending on the type of wheel you want to use.

2. Motor Mount - Again, this will need some creativity and some fabrication skills. You have to fabricate a gearbox where you also mount the motor. The gearbox must have output drive to feef the drive shaft to your axle.

3.Center DIff? - Not really a diff, but a locked gearbox / or gear reduction.. again, some creativity and fabrication skill.

If you really want to go into crawler, with minimal spending, assuming you already have the servo (high torque), esc with reverse and transmitter, go for the AX10.

What I mean with minimal spending is, the kit is basically crawler ready where the diff is locked and the gearbox is also locked. All you need is the electronics. I wouldn't go for the RTR version though...

just my opinion... hope this helps....

cheers...

KS,

thanks..

I did not get any reply from the seller... I dunno...

Anyway, to solve the "smoothness" problem, you may need to have a look into the "O" ring at the bottom cap. It maybe too tight. Also, check the piston, maybe the piston is a lil bit oversized.
