some hills, some rocks, some breakage
 
I barely even started on my RC course and I already broke my 1:6 on it. I dug a few holes and used the dirt to make hills. I also brought in a few of the larger rocks to get the little pile started. I was anxious to test it out and after about 15 minutes of jumping hills and climbing rocks I ended up breaking the passenger side steering knuckle on the rocks.

nice start but the breakage will disapear with experience of when to stop and back up.

The breakage was just retardation on my part. I was pushing it to see if the cut tires made a difference and I pushed it too hard.

I dont know how you people break these i have had 1 and I have alot of other crawlers to but i can't break the thing it is so strong and its a gen 1 or 2 . I have pushed my crawler to taken a 15 foot drop and nothing falling time after time from 2-5ft these things are strong. and when I get hung up I dont go move it I only move it if im on the verg of falling in the water but other than that, when I am stuck i keep on truckin.
