Great looking chassis, let us know how it works.

you are definetly going to want to run oil in your shocks, it will make your rig much more predictable.

Now that's a chassis setup "thumbsup"

I'll try and see what happens.

I like the idea of the 60/40 setup and that low-slung bad boy looks very capable. I'll be curious to see a report on how it crawls.

lil' lucifer 01-05-2009 11:00 AM

seems to crawl up the house wall almost touching the rear tires before it desides it want to go over backwards. Almost means about within a 1/8".

Have not done any real rock yet(snowing) but for the stuff I make it do in the house it seems like it's quite capable.

i like it, its just crazy enough to be cool. how thick is the delrin on the chassis?

tanmonster 01-05-2009 11:32 AM

You're going to want steel or delrin links before you do any comps with that belly-dragger. Aluminum sticks to rocks like nothing I have ever seen.

Thats looks sweat. Were did that chassis come form:?:

miller 01-10-2009 02:58 AM

Pics and video let's go! The new standard in chassis design :lol:

seb 01-10-2009 11:20 AM

I just finished mine 36 hours ago. I must say that it is amazing. It can crawl over things that other crawlers can't even do... the list of things is long... I'm now doing things that I didn't even consider trying before.... I hope to have some video soon but I won't promise cuz I'm so busy with work.

I'll try extra hard to get pictures posted.

Bent axial 01-17-2009 05:34 AM

any thing new, I'm verry intrested in this design.
