[liighthead]

nice rig.. song name(s)?

[orionknight12]

And that, kids is why you shouldn't do drugs. It'll make you go really fast, listen to bad music, and buy r/c kits.

[ch1ld0fbodom]

Do you recommend the slider motor? I need more speed cause I made a scaler out of my MRC.. I do dirt, sand and mud now so I need more wheelspeed. Can you help me?

Nice video! Howmuch faster is it? 25%, 50%, 75%?..

Greetings!

[NeXt559]

@ch1ld0fbodom the slider motor was pretty good but i kept having issues with the springs popping out. went with the stump puller and it works like a dream. good wheel speed and gobs of torque for a mini motor. but at the moment this project is just packed up in a box. havent had much time to work on it

[ch1ld0fbodom]

@NeXt559 I bought myself the frenzy motor but I have issues with moving up a hill when I"m standing still. I got the desired wheel speed but the torque is not good.. SO I will change my pinions and spur to a 9t - 60t or a 10t -62t. I hope I got enough torque then. As I said it was a scaler zo a lot of weight is added.. ;-) And what is a stump puller, I have no clue! :p

[NeXt559]

@ch1ld0fbodom the stump puller is motor made by reddy in association w/ associated part number ae290

[craveman85]

dont you have a bigger work surface somewhere? maybe the toilet tank would give you some extra room.

[NeXt559]

@craveman85

lol

i did the entire build while i was at work. so i had to keep the work area small and portable just in case i had to pack everything up in a hurry

[mik3ymike]

Nice looking rig friend.

Why did you go with the slider motor?

Im building a rock racer from the mini using the stock chassis with a custom length 4 link and drive shafts. Im using an insane 330 from a mini lst2 because I had it laying around.

Something good about the slider motor I dont know about?

[NeXt559]

@mik3ymike a little more speed but i did go with a larger spur and smaller pinion for more torque. but if you're looking for a really good brushed motor option i suggest going w/ the stump puller

[atv4l]

what did u do for the 4ws setup it looks sick

[NeXt559]

@atv4l its basically another front axle

you just need a servo knuckles c hubs the dogbones and steering links

[airbrush55]

Shit man i cant see u hands jajajaja XP

Nice nice vid

[TheLasse94]

at 0:15 you see the front axle. what battery do you have on, and did u use the rc4wd servo mount. ..... it looks awesome ..

[NeXt559]

im actually using the losi cf plates w/ rpm universal servo mounts.

as for the battery it's losi's 2 cell 800mah lipo.

gooooooooooooooddd

[ktvad2]

i have the tuber body just like that 1 and i have bad ass videos of my Losi mini crawler go look see if u like!!! comment plzz

[Monkeykid5228]

i got a new chassis, its a tuber from tcscrawlers.-com and i just need to figure out how to reprogram the esc too... could you send me the link of where you got the directions? thanks.

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

did u buy this as a kit?

[XShadowRejectsX]

DANG!!! alot of pieces to assemble, may i please ask where u got the steering links? nice video 5/5

[NeXt559]

thanx

yeah, definatly alot of parts to work with. im proud of the fact during the entire assembly i never had to pull out a manual or exploded view of the kit =D just needed the print out for programing the speed control.

i made the steering links myself

at about 5:30 you can see me making them

personally i really dont like the stock steering links. the ones i made are 10 times stronger and imo 20 time cleaner looking

and th

[XShadowRejectsX]

ahah np, i asked kuz your links are nice, and i spray painted mine a silver look, to look metal, haha i agree with you, the stock links arnt as strong, i bet they wil break hittin a rock at full speed, but ive never had a prob with em, i might make my own like u did ahha thx man!@

[jminors]

Hey, new to crawling.

what ball links did u use for the steering? Or did u change to bigger balls?

Trying to do 4WS but the stock link is too short to reach the servo horn on my Hitecs.

[NeXt559]

@jminors i m using the losi ball ends but the links themselves i made on my own.

[jminors]

@NeXt559 thanks dude. I got mine sorted out nicely already. Still looking for a tuber chassis though, where'd you get that one, or is it custom made? I've been trying to get a Warthog for mine, but can't find those sold anywhere either.

[NeXt559]

@jminors

well im willing to sell it (tube chassis)

message me if your interested

[Monkeykid5228]

that is really b.a., where did you get the chassis? how much was it? if your going to build another one, what chassis?

[XShadowRejectsX]

found u

[NeXt559]

thanx

i bought te chassis used on rcc

but the next one im building is a one off custom made by "gadge rc fabrication" its going to be modeled after the matt messer trail gear comp buggy

[tabledechevet2007]

And when will you try uour MRC on the rocks ? Just to see how it runs with your setup.

Thanks !

[NeXt559]

actually i'm already making plans for a new more scale looking tube chassis. so for the moment this is strictly going to be an indoor crawler for my down time at work. im planning on selling the tuber and wouldnt want it to be all jacked up to the person i sell it to

[roughandlola]

Yo thats the best crawler vid I have ever watched!!! For real coolest vid yet. GREAT BEATS!!! I got "daylight" on my MP3 one of my favs man.

[NeXt559]

thanks "thumbsup"

i noticed i havent seen a crawler time lapse build video and thought it might be nice ot have somthing different.

[NeXt559]

its a dmg snipve v1 chassis

first song is "daylight" by aesop rock

second song is "qweloquiallisms" by typical catz

[drewmaloy]

great video! couple of questions. what tube chassis is that? and what are the first two songs that play on your video? thanks peace
