Looks good Dez. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to hear how it does on the rocks with all your changes.

Thanks, I have high hopes for the CC. I am a huge fan of the MOA/MDA axle design. I think that these axles along w/ the alterations and modifications I'm making will lead to a very capable little crawler!"thumbsup"

it will be interesting to see how this pans out. dez, dont let us down !

Dez can do eet!!!

You MO it baby!:ror:

Well I played w/ the CCZ for a bit this afternoon and I like the results! First I mounted my J Concepts Rock Steady body that I was using on my Berg, it look like it was made for the CC!"thumbsup"

I then found another set of links and moved them to the location that 4xFord suggested. They fit great and look at the difference in clearance."thumbsup"

Thanks Carlos, I can't wait to crawl w/ it!

What a nifty little rig you did a awesome job modding it Dez.

Nice build Dez.I might have to try one someday."thumbsup"

Lookie good Joe!! I wish I had a aluminum Zero.....

Thanks guys, like I stated, we're (CMRCRC) going to run a 10.5 class w/ 1.9s and this is my "secret" weapon!:ror:

So what kind of width did you end up with after the stub axle mod?

The front w/ the Axial stubs and the stock CC tires and wheels is 9 inches.

That's a great idea I wouldn't mind if we (MNRCRC) did something like that.

Yeah, we have a few guys w/ TLT axles that are not being used, and a few w/ the CC, so we decided why not do a smaller class?

With the Losi Mini Crawler also available, I'm sure we'll have a spec class for it as well.

So much for not having any options!:ror:

OOOHHH YAAA Says the cool-aid man! The body looks great and it looks like links made quite a difference, they better look out for your mini clod!"thumbsup"

Sure did, thanks for the suggestion.

Hope to have it running this weekend!"thumbsup"

link positioning looks alot better.i like the body on it to. might have to pic one of them mo fo's up.

And then?...:lol:

And then the wife comes home and put me to work.:-(


Just waiting on a few parts and it should be good to go. Hope to have pics of the CCZ on the rocks real soon!"thumbsup"

:lol: I hear ya on the wife part, are you getting new motors? i tried the 454's from JRH and for the few seconds the cc actually ran, i was:shock: really impressed on the low end balls this thing have, and the wheelspeed was awesome, all of this on nimh 6 cell:shock:

I'll install a set of the Mini Pullers, but first I want to upgrade all of the gears and the out-drives to the metal components. After the metal parts are installed and the Pullers are in, I might even try the CC axles out w/ a set of 2.2s?:twisted:

I think with the aluminum gears it w2ill take the abuse of the mini pullers, not so sure on the 2.2's , sounds like there might be carnage, get pics:lol::twisted:

I've been running the HH puller motors for a while now and ran it quite a bit out in Moab at the Nationals to pass the time. I ran a 5 cell battery located over the front servo with a Novak Rooster Crawler and the performance was VERY good. I will definately be taking the Rooster out in the future and swapping for a FXR. I am using FXR-Pro's in my Berg and I prefer the FXR's over the Rooster. Just my opinoin.
I also tried an 8 cell battery with the puller motors and it was well.....rediculous to put it mildly:lol: Too punchy and way more wheel speed than you need for crawling. I think 5 cells works very well, but will be trying 6 cells once all my stuff gets back from Moab just to see how it performs.
I highly recommend the Holmes Hobbies puller motors.

Yeah, Johnrob and I did some crawling right before Nat's and the Mini Pullers are just as amazing as their bigger brothers.

Like I said, at some point I intend to really put the hurt on these axles and test them w/ the Pullers and running full size 2.2s!

I ran Losi Claws and Proline Hammers with no problems.

That's good to hear!"thumbsup"

o really so can i make a nother set of driveshaft and links for my sw3 and put some 1.9's on it after I run it in the 2.2 class :lol:

anyone got any footage of the mini pullers in the cc ?

Pffft, it's still a shafty.:roll:

;-):-P:ror:

:shock: have you even beat me at a comp yet or rikki??? :lol:jk yea i plan on putting my shaft away soon ;-) frist we'll see how the next comp i can make gose

Cocky little shit huh. :ror:

Anyone can be lucky twice!:-P

Hope to see you guys again soon, you going to Crawlapalooza?
