Wow, you guys still have not figured out that whole "Hobby" thing have you. If you are not having fun with it what the hell is the point

Looks good man It's nice to see some one having fun with it even tho it was not built for the highest level of performance attainable in an RC crawler at any cost
Now if only there was a way to dye the tires grey:smile:

the only thing i would add if possible would be a servo Yed into the steering and turning the "head" so it looks left and right while steering.

Hell yeah ! and Working lasers- It would be nice to lower like said, but I know that would be tragic to cut it up any more. Kinda win/lose situation. BTW it isn't a waste! It's Unique.

I have to agree with the majority here, that is a great crawler. Now all you need is little Skywalker figure hanging from the bottom.

Very cool indeed.

awesome. you should cover the shocks with some aluminum channel or some thing similar and joint it in the middle so it will look like it is "walking" over the rocks.

You should also find a teeny tiny Luke Skywalker figurine with lightsaber in hand to hang from the skidplate.

very OG idea.
as others said, maybe lowering it a bit would set it off.
either way, its all about fun, and you sir seem plentiful in funage.

just dont take my word for it, i'm one of the shitheads that think my rigs are not anything more than just toys
