Default Southern New Mexico Rocks

Well Bryon, It looks like its us for now. Lets get this rolling, my neighbor is looking at a crawler, and if your buddy gets one that will make us 6 strong!!!

I rewired my ESC tonight and it works like new. So when my new ESC comes in you can try it out.

No bad blood Bryon, I'm down to crawl where ever, I think it would be good to have several different crawl spots there are a more i have been finding around my place and I'm getting a good collection of rocks in my yard, which can be another possible crawl spot............looking good that there are more and more crawlers popping up! Cyrus' truck should be dialed in here very soon also!

Hey bro,

Good to see another crawler here in Cruces. We have a fun spot up from the farm and ranch museum called Little Moab, we can crawl different lines all day up there and are finding more and more. My rig is down until my CVDs come in but would be happy to take you out there. PM me your number and we will plan something.

Andrew

well my problem is that my rig isnt even close to being done. all i got was the chassis and the tlt kit so its going to be some time and i need lots of help with it since this is my first time building a rig. but i just wanted to go out there and see you guys mess around so i can get an idea of how you do it and some of the layouts you guys have.

Jorge, just bought a new rig, and I think it has the EZ run brushless in it. Will see when it shows. We can figure out of its any good or not... Also, if you know anybody looking for a crawler, going to be doing a bit with this one and making it RTR, then selling. let me know!

Right on! Somebody else still rocking the TLT! There's a few guys up here in ABQ still running them. Nice little rigs!

Check out the build in my sig. I used an rc10 tranny as well. I used Revo shafts but they are overkill. You can get away with Stampede shafts if you don't go brushless or Emaxx shafts work well also. You need the small transmission output yokes for the TLT axles though and you need a 4-40 or 3mm tap to get the stub shaft end of the yoke to work with the rc10 outdrive cups. Good tranny but takes a little work to get it to work.

lol i never though of useing the tlt output shafts LOL. i did get some maxx shafts but when i put them together they have alot of bind in them since i never knew how to put them together but ill try the revo ones of they have them assemblesd. and im going to run brussless since the only esc i have atm is a mamba max. the thing that sucks is that im going to have to hope i can turn down my motor down WAY WAY low since the only one i have is a 7700 kv motor.
