| RC Crawler From Scratch
Hi everyone. Well, I decided to build my own desing of a scale crawler. I was wondering how simple or hard a desing can be, what are some things that I should take in mind, and what are good parts that are really hard to make that I could use. I'm thinking more of a scaler than a crawler though.

the amount of engineering and research and testing etc that goes into making a crawler "from scratch" is literally impossible so you have some questions to start out with what axles do you want? most scalers right now seem to be running ax10 axles you can prob make your own ladder frame chasis then you need to decide if youre gonna run shocks all around or leafs out back or leafs all around gonna need an axial transmission gonna need wheels and tires waterproof electronics are reccommended body (and interior if your going really scale) honestly i'd start with a kit like a honcho if its your first experience with it |

I say go for it. Get a set of axles, and trans and go to town.
