My first crawler
 
I got my CC on Monday and its my first crawler, I have to say that this little thing is a lot of fun! I never thought I'd have this much fun going so slow... now I have to get better at it so I can upgrade this one or get a better crawler

it's my first crawler as well. it is fun. i say: "drive it in to the ground- then up grade as you go". i would dare to say there are a few guys on here that are just short of cc comp rigs.(maybe not) :twisted: i have to compete with an ax10, a rs10 & bully all on comp tires on my backyard(i thank my wife for) course.
the CC'll do it. the bully isn't done yet so we dont have a real comp rig to compare it to.

I'm the first of my racer/basher friends to get a crawler now they all want them lol. Then again I was the first one to get into rc boats then they all followed suit.

depends on how far your gonna go. just get some negative offset. pushes them out away from the hubs. the situation on mine: i've moved all susp to outside to clear bigger motors now i rub with my proline 8 shooters and 2.2 rovers. i love the rovers whites. they are big at like 5.5 inches though.

the stall was pretty bad. got the banebots- blew out the rest of my plastic gears. worked well on some pretty demanding stuff i got in my back yard course, till crunchy crunchy. it'll make an ax-10 work for it
