| I'm building a Mini Crawler Track
Hi all! I got my Orlandoo Hunter crawler a week ago and I felt that driving over pillows and what not didn't really do it for me so I've started to build my own crawler track which is good fun It's just in the beginning stages of the construction so there's a lot more to do... Take a Look! Cheers https://youtu.be/1HyDlGaApXs Last edited by Esseaux; 09-26-2020 at 12:22 AM. |

Here's a little picture of what a small portion of the track will look like. The Beetle is from Revell and in 1/35 scale so it fits perfectly with the Orlando Jeep that we have. |

Some more done to the Mini Crawler Track. I also took the Orlandoo Jeep out for a testdrive on some of the obstacles. I can't seem to come to terms with embedding a YouTube video so a good old fashioned link have to do... https://youtu.be/3Qc2skRKOD4 Last edited by Esseaux; 10-04-2020 at 03:19 PM. |

Love the way it’s coming along. I’ve built mine inside up in our loft out of real rocks which is awesome but it was a mistake because now I’m in love with it but don’t have an easy way to move and replicate it. I might slide a piece of plywood underneath and then plaster cloth it.

Thanks! My thoughts initially was to make something like yours but then it struck me that portabilty is an issue. I need to be able to bring it to meetings and such so this was my best option.

I remember seeing a micro course setup similar to that mounted to a sheet of plywood. Less flexible, more heavy, and you hang it or stand it up on a wall when not in use. Plus it’s modular and you can add sections to it.
