| Crawler Noobs Builds His First Crawler
So i wanted to get back into RC's and really took to crawlers because i have two young kids so days at the park or hikes are often. I started watching youtube and saw a banggood all metal SCX10 clone RTR for about $200 and figured why the hell not. Im a very DIY person and love to work and tinker on everything. I also decided that i was going to use it as a project car and make it my own. Well now sitting here i realized that i got a dinosaur model but am super happy with the outcome because now i can use a lot of these parts for future build kits after a get some more driving experience under my belt. overall the kit was actually well built! Parts were constructed well, material (although i dont know the quality of material) seem thick and heavy, many of the bolts were tight, and overall im happy with the progress. I will post update threads the more i accomplish. I have gone through this car, greased the diffs and trans, locktited all nuts, rebuilt the shocks (45wt front 25wt rear) lithium greased the CVD's, and looked over everything. I have a Axial k5 blazer body on the way. Below is a list of parts.

Thanks for sharing the pics. I sometimes take a look at those "ARTR" SCX10 clones, and think about getting one for fun, but I can never get enough details from the few reviews available. Last fall, I was really interested in one that was all gold and red, for a special Christmas rig. |
