okay after blowing my rear stear axle to bits last night i decided to try a 6x6 conversion. got it all done then while out testing my control board fried, it will go in revers but not forward.

as far as how it does in the rocks, its not to bad the steerinbg radius isnt the best but it will climb over things now that it wouldnt before.

what would be a good (cheap) speed control and remot setup that would handle 3 motors?????

ill try to get pics up latter on.

my rear kept binding up/finally blew board in forward on rear axle..

i soldered the rear axle in with the front on the board/so far so good.
my rear was still binding so i pulled it apart & greased it up.
i will test it out tonight.

ya, pics man!!

sorry guys i ended up dissasembling it after both of my circut boards fried and two of my drive motors. *** soon as i can get hobby grade electronics and some new motors ill put it back together and give ya some pics.

all i did was turn one axle backwards got a long piece of all thred and a aluminum arrow shaft and hooked both axles up on the all thread. it crawled like a beast untell the boards went. i then put a board out of an ould ratshack truck and played some more tell i got it in a lil deep water. turns out the motors do not like water.
