servo is the first thing youll need to do , hitec 65 or spektrum h3000 are imo the best you can get for it i run the spektrum cuz its perttier than the hitec lol then youll want to get ahold of getbent and have him rebuild a bbv2 to 80t (i'm sure he hates winding these things by now) that way you can run 2s lipo without burning holes in your carpet and pullin wheelies everytime you hit the throttle thats about it for electronics other than changing all wiring to 22ga noodle wire and using either jst or micro deans connectors |

wow where to start ? whose talkin about 7 inch wb damn i mean a mini has a max of 8.5 so...damn doesnt sound like any of the rules i read or was a part of bent links arent for turning theyre for clearance on break overs read this thread Micro Crawler comp rules? and if you want the chasis to perform at all i recomment at least a dp chasis pinch or bwd, if you dont want to run a body the tmc or anything from r7r youre also gonna want real beadlock wheels like bwd vertex and a good tire ive heard good things about rc4wd stuff and when you mount them dont forget to put some lead shot in at least the front tires but the reason i mention the bwd wheels is the weight system i came up with and getbent is also running im not sure what you know or dont know about crawling so feel free to pm me with any questions i hope i clarified some things and didnt lose you somewhere |
