Default The KINGS CHAOTIC BUILD BEGINS

Well I have been lurking and playing with inferior crawler now for a while .
Don`t get me wrong that if it wasn`t for the "losi night crawler" I would not be this keen into crawlin.

Anyway the build :

XR10 kit

Chaotic Crawler special bodiless chassis with matching links,body panels and both steering rods {bent and straight }

All vanquish regulars [ knuckles , link mounts , motor plates , transmission cases , hubs , lockouts and bronze bearings ]

RC4WD gears

Titanium gear shafts

Tekin HD 35 T motors , dual FXRS and hotwire interface

Castle Creatins 10A BEC and link programmer

Traxas big bores with JeepNDougs mini T spring cups, team associated assorted springs and Wicked Wolf shock caps

Hitec 7950TH servo

Graphite steering servo mount

Rowdy Racing topless battery plate and also the new motor mounted plate

Futaba 4PKS

3s 1000mah batteries.

Later a selection of hubs whees and tyres

Few pics of so far

Right on!!! Welcome to the Chaotic chassis. I highly doubt you'll be disappointed. Parts list looks good.

It'll be cool to see how you do against my Aussie buddy Camo (Highlucks).

Bit of an update

















JeepnDougs stand offs





Had to shave the revo rod ends as they were binding on the chassis a little



Mock up build with stock stuff so far

Waiting on the VP stuff still yet to order my motors , esc`s and Futaba 4PKS .

Does everything look right so far ? I do have the skid reversed for some secret squirrel business .

Great looking build so far! With the VP motor plates and tranny cases, you'll find you won't need the bronze bushings.

Enjoy the rest of your build. I can't wait to see some pics on the rocks.

Are the links hitting the chassis in the front or rear?
