Hello
I've just registered at RCCrawler.com, and thought maybe a short presentation could be in place. I live i Norway, is fairly new to all kinds of RC. Have driven (and repaired) nitro-car for about a year. Some months ago I accidently came across the word "crawler" and had to check what it was all about. I watched som videos, read different internet-forums and got addicted.
I bought a 4x4 WK (not available in Europe yet) from Tower Hobbies a month ago. Turned the chassis, relocated servo, locked diffes, got a Integy V10-50T Crawler Motor,Traxxas shafts, stretched the wheelbase to 11 1/2 inch. Links made of 4mm treaded steel coverd with tube that shrink when heated (do not know the name in english).
Anyway - thanks to all of you for the tips and sollutions presented on this forum.
I hope I also can contribute some day. Hav a nice day.
