I bet it looks something like Marcus Walz's "Benchmark"

Hy Your new crawler looks realy performant.
Clearance and stearing should be a grate advantage.
The work you did on your motors is also grate.

I also have the Woodoo's and are verry hapy with it.
With a total of 1400g I have 60% at the front and 40% on the rear axels and I took Ultra soft for the front and super soft for the rear with Pro-Line 2.2" 2-Stage Oversized Memory Foam.

I'm surprised you didn't do your own axels. XR10 is not what you can call simple and reliable.

Have fun crawling.

He will make it weigh 100 kg and 3 feet of clearance and climb vertical wall of 5 feet tall....

I think that's the power wire your seeing!
Kinda looks like a small red led though! Lol

I think filotr14lsdude meant in the last picture, the red bit on the right (it looks like a red LED).

It is just a red insulation of the cap. Look at other pictures and you will know what I mean.

you guys are right , looks a bit like a small led

Just read this whole thread from start to finish and I can concur with the others. Insane in the best possible way. Sweet work and innovative thought.

I have noticed your upper link mounts on the axles.
With the disappearance of VP in the XR10 market (or the partial disappearance thus far) there would be a market for the style of link mount you use.

I specifically mean this style that you had used in the past. I say this style as I noticed you have 2 styles for the simple fact that there are those that may be unwilling to grind down their cases or just not able to. This makes it an easy bolt on for the likes of those. I also like the idea of the load being spread out through the whole top rather then just the center tab.



Pretty sure there would be some interest in either method though.

Geez Christian, I was beginning to think you fell off the earth.

It's good to have you posting again

I would like some information on how you modified the servo. Don't know MKS servo, do they have a metal case ? Did you have to make new holes and tap them for bigger screws in the gear cover ?

Besides MKS servo are not easy to be found... did you buy it online somewhere ?

Thanks

Where have you been for 8 months!!!

[pelanas]

Nice to meet you again. Never die

[Del Monte]

Welcome back. We've missed you

[TSK]

I just saw a ghost!

Congrats on the win Christian!

[EGRESSor]

Thank you guys

there´s not much time for the hobby now

only some minor changes at the rig i will post later

after watching pics like this Holmes Team, Pro, and Custom motor Tech for awhile
i think i will make some new motor cans



hope to get a bit more torque and less rpm

Still planning to use the 7 slot arms? If you send a dxf of that view I can run it through FEMM to see how the saturation levels hold, unless you have already done it! We will need the armature drawn in it too for an accurate model. Very slick thinking there. I've thought about varied back iron a lot and never wanted to share it because I couldn't figure out an affordable way to make it without an extrusion.


You should get a nice boost in your torque efficiency VS a straight 1mm can, and you won't have the full weight gain of a 2.5mm can. Glad to see somebody departing from the very bad practice of just taking off back iron to save weight, it ain't worth it!!
