http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...c/IMG_5269.jpg Yep, the Lincoln Log crawler. :D Maybe I'll be able to actually create a decent course in this little apartment! http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...c/IMG_5275.jpg |
Here is mine so far http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2564/...8bacb7640b.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2735/...28c8e83dab.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2729/...018118a028.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2650/...4183b81d35.jpg And a little video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82viDDWgKTg Its an ongoing project to check the build thread for the most current picshttp://www.rccrawler.com/forum/micro-scale-rigs/213655-rocked-out-4-runner.html Here is my second micro. It's an F-150 I'm working on. http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2...h/DSC04017.jpg http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2...h/DSC04019.jpg http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j2...DSC04007-1.jpg |
I have done a few things to make my micro more capable. I left the springs on but added some small black silicone bands to pull it down some and they act like internal springs somewhat. So far I reallly like the effect. I started out with the battery on the front servo but found that while the weight up front was nice it was just too high up for me. I have the stock battery and a micro lipo for it and now have a velcro pad on the rear plate to put them. It was necessary to make up the weight in the front so its still front biased so I added some 1/4oz weights to the front on the outside of both front wheels and trimmed some weights to fit around the front driveshaft. I was looking to add weight up front but it had to stay as low as possible. I also put a few wraps of small solder wire inside the tires to make up for the rest of the weight I needed. Now I believe its back to an ideal 65/35 or so weight ratio. Has a great balance for my crawling now:mrgreen::mrgreen: http://i728.photobucket.com/albums/w...9092100-00.jpg http://i728.photobucket.com/albums/w...9092101-00.jpg http://i728.photobucket.com/albums/w...9092101-01.jpg http://i728.photobucket.com/albums/w...9092059-00.jpg I would really love to slam that body down like I have seen some others do on here but am too afraid i would make it look butchered:| |

slow and low that is the tempo... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...h_821415f6.jpg removed battery tray and esc tray, sanded slot for bearing in tranny, running a bit smoother now with better low end speed, micro deans are a must, removed esc case and servo taped to servo, two wraps of plumbing solder in the front on each wheel, nothing on rears yet, full on droop, trimmed body to be slammed using stock post holes in body, i moved the posts down one little space where screws once were. I like seeing the shock tops poke out of the body so had to do that plus lets it sit a bit lower as a result. 200mAh LiPo on rear axle held on by a hair tie in black. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...h_7b7a13b7.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...h_3335d78d.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...h_82a3c89d.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...h_DSC_2431.jpg |
http://i601.photobucket.com/albums/t...osiCrawler.jpg The body is from a cheap RC that I found at the grocery store and it fits great! I put the ESC on the servo and fliped the switch over. Had to make body mounts from Mini LST posts and Micro DT screws. This is the blue version, but after washing the plastic wheel rings in nitro fuel they came out black, so no scraped paint in their future. Going to weight the wheels on the inside of the inner rings with lead weights (on the wheels) and put internal springs in the shocks instead of the coil over DT springs that I have installed now. |

I threw this body on 10 minutes after I got it home; many more mods to come...(it's from a $7 Radio Shack cheapie; why didn't I buy them all??) http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...1210091547.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...1210091549.jpg MDT spare tire http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...210091549a.jpg |
