Woah, thats cool
 
I was looking around on the home page, and skeemed the year end review.

Heres what the end part says (what they predict will happen this year)




I know RCCrawler.com will still be running and looking awesome but when you have transformations of rigs that looked like this only twelve months ago, you have to wonder what types of “rock craft” we will be piloting in 2006. Here are a few predictions and thoughts from the RCCrawler.com Team:

Air actuated shocks/so springs

Decreased center clearances (dragging bellies)

Better tire choices from manufacturers

Minimal lexan use in bodies (heavily cut bodies)

Extreme Light weight rigs / under built chassis

4 wheel independent steering (one servo per wheel)

LiPoly batteries

Home Made Tires

Robot Servos

Valved C02 canisters for steering systems and hydraulic





So far we've done all these: 6 out of 10 of them

Does my all droop travel TXT count as a belly dragger, it does in my book.

Not well. We are also dragging bellys, and using robot servos, so 8 out of 10.

I want to see some swayaway airshocks 3" travel 1/2" bore please. :mrgreen:

Yeah but we were doing alot of those when it was written too :lol:

The stick had just come out, the scorpion hydraulic steering crawler was still in construction, (though I had not seen some one with 4 servos on their vehicle independently controlling each wheel), lexan bodies were already getting hacked, and dirk probably know about the moabs at that point :lol:
