What type of crawler are you planning on running? That would help. You'll need at least a Futaba 4PL radio, they've got really nice steering functions. My girl runs one on her dual steering Bully MOA. so, list should include, 4ch. radio/rx, 2 servo's (around 330oz preferably) "2" BEC's (one for each servo & direct wired). You could also use a Punk RC steering computer with a 3 channel radio. (I have one but did not use it since I got a 4ch radio for my girls rig.) If you're not running a separate dig unit you can use a 3ch radio= ESC, and both servos or the Punk computer. |

I accidently put LNR, but its a LNC "Losi Night Crawler" The list you gave me does help a lot tho  I'm not into comping it, just want to go cheap to achieve rear steer. I already installed a heavy duty front steering servo. Since you know excatly what my crawler is, does the list change or stay the same? Like I said I'm on a limited budget. Thanks Last edited by blacktoothgrin; 05-03-2011 at 01:03 PM. |

You will need to get the steering parts from Losi to convert the rear axle to steering. You will need the C-hubs, knuckles, CVD axles, servo mounting plate and steering linkages, as well as the bearings and screws/hardware to go along with all those parts. This is in addition to the radio, servo and BEC. I would just use one BEC powering up the receiver unless the servos you choose are monster amp hogs...

The Futaba 3PMX is a great radio for 4WS. Used it for awhile on my MRC.
