WHAT? No more under water but that was so much fun to watch!

Oh well maybe I will leave them vented for now. I have my stock creeper ones I got with the JK and they are still wet, I can still get water out of the and they were wet when I got them 6-7 months ago.

bearings and servos are exspensive... i never could seal the servos up enough to make them 100% water proof. i will do some water play. but not like that.

just flatten them some to get that effect before you silicone them. force some air out and hold it there then seal them shut, you get waterproofing and the effect of flat tires......

Wow you haven't even ran it and there is a drip pan underneath it.





Really it looks good! What size are those wheels? 1.9 or 2.2?

I think it looks good!

I just put my X-trail chassis together last week but don't have a body yet and I'm running the 1.9 flat irons. I like them so far really haven't done much with it yet but still.

The crwaler conversion is on in the rear but the front is stock to fit the wheel base. it has an axial 27t, traxxass waterproof servo and xl5 esc, stock HPI 2ch radio.


onto the pics

The body was painted by crawler graphics on this site and I bought the truck from gapjr.


parked on the venom.


My plan is to make an arctic type scale like the TopGear arctic Hilux from the north pole special.
