ideas?

[ryan1/18crawler]

so this is my losi mini rock crawler i just put all my upgrades on it any ideas to make it better
-1.9 losi rock bashers
-30 degreei long arms
-v2 losi skullz chassie
-medal diff gears
-2 1/2 ounces in both front tires

[rocks for brains]

i would take out the battery tray and mount the electronics lower then move the shocks and try to get lower

nice rig

Limit your shocks. I run a little more than 1 tire's height of flex.

[muddog27]

I would 4 link it

[JOMJ87]

Chassis with 4 link or 4 link the skullz!!! and lower the shocks and limit them. Major improvement.

I have heard good results with guys running droop .

[rocks for brains]

i have a some more things make some bedlock and get some chisel tires just got mine tonighg so much better then stock

As suggested, get the weight from those electronics lower. If you like the three link (or even with a four-link) you can make little plastic tray(s) to mount to the top of the 3/4 link(s), and put the ESC/Rx there. The trays don't have to be fancy: you can use the soft plastic CD cases, part of a plastic container, &c. Putting the battery on one of the axles will also help tremendously. I'd suggested playing around with these ideas, a little at a time, and see how the changes influence the performance of the rig. It's fun and educational.

Lower, lower, lower.......I'm running 70 mm shocks with 1/4 internal limiters, 70w and no springs (droop setup). 4 link it and move electronics as low as possible

[ryan1/18crawler]

is this any better i took the springs off and cut the fenders(not in the photo)put the lip battire on back axel what do you thank?

[MRCnoob]

I thank it looks much better.

[ryan1/18crawler]

thanks

[JOMJ87]

Much better. I would look into some nice aluminum threaded NON losi shocks. And 4 link that beast. Oh and you still might want to cut out the stock tray for the electronics as suggested.

[ryan1/18crawler]

do you know what kinda shocks would be best thanks,

[rocks for brains]

rcbros shocks are nice

[JOMJ87]

I have yeah racing (RC Bros) If i wasnt to impatient i would have gotten the vendetta shocks. They seem to be everyones favorite right now and are cheap. check some of the GC3 build threads most of them have them.

I agree.

I picked up some yeah racing shocks and the have been a pain to keep from leaking. I've had to teflon tape the upper and lower threads and replace the lower 0-rings. They've only got about 6 battery packs of run time. I really wish I would have gone with the vendettas or maybe the Losi Late Models.
