| Harley's XR10 #AX50062 I was one of the lucky ones who received my XR10 early thanks to the the guys at Axial. I spent last Sunday building the kit up box stock. I can't tell you all how impressed I am with the kit overall. I am going to try and add as much TECH to this thread as I am possible of doing. I have this knack for getting a little off topic.... I will be listing my suggest setups for all your electronics choices, both when using single or dual ESC's. I will list programming for radios such at the 4PK, 3PMx and 6EX as well as the setting I will be using in my ESC's. My personal setup will be as follows for now.
As always, a huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters. There is no way I would be able to do this without your help: Axial Racing ~ Futaba ~ Vanquish Products ~ TCScrawlers.com ~ Holmeshobbies.com ~ MaxAmps ~ Freq E Dezigns |

cant wait to see it. gotta question. if the crawlers are supposed to have lots of tourque (ie 55t motor and up) then why do so many people run 35t? I know the esc can crawl it along but why so much wheel speed? just for kicks or is there a crawling advantage to it?

Here we go the start of a three month 20 page project Just teasing sounds like a good plan I know it will be built right and well documented! I plan on switching to a 4PK after nats so any questions Redbarron can't answer will be forwarded to you so I guess we'll be talking a lot! Last edited by BLUEJEEP; 08-30-2010 at 11:19 PM. |

| I built it last Sunday and video taped the whole build. I need to finish processing the video and get it uploaded. My big head is partially blocking some of it but it was definitely "well documented" |

| Right after I get done laying down some courses with it! I have decided that this will most likely be my Nationals truck, I'll be there to put the pressure on Brandon. If it lets me down I'll go full on ROCK FORCE on it! |
