It will also not have the weight low enough or have it far enough forwards. Once again, nice try though!

The old Reign Jefferson was set up to run side saddle packs. I ran mine that way for a bit. Works pretty good actually. Split a stick pack and put three in a row on each side.

Thats not that bad but would be better on a scaler probably. I love the straps, awesome idea. Oh yeah please vertically tile your pics sidescrolling is annoying lol.

Ive never crawled a rock in my life...:-( I had some split packs and assumed if the body mounts stuck out, the batt would be fine. I havent seen a batt mount I liked here and Ive scrolled all 36 or so pages, Im sure Ill end up with the Holmes setup of 2/3s, thats pretty sweet for 20 bucks. But how well do they work with only 15 0r 1800 mah? Does the Integy 55T use less power than a typical motor? Again, Im new to this. Right now Im crawling pillows and blankets on the floor...  Local shop has a sweet new rock table I will try soon....let the braking of parts begin. Oh, and the pics are vertical...Im on firefox and they are stacked. |

Look at the pics of the original prototype Axial crawler, that is the way they were going to come;)   |

Newbie here! I don't see how the batteries will hang you up. It'd be the same as the body. only thing is your body wont have that give it used to in the middle but rather will have a set of sturdy-ish rock sliders! |

Again good try...like the others have mentioned it will hang up in the rocks. I am a newbie here also, but there is a whole tech article about moving your links inward and swapping out socket heads for button heads to keep from hanging up in the rocks. Rig looks real nice though...it's yours have fun with it. |
