Hello,
In Indy
Looking to get a RIG, so I'm learning all I can on the forums.
I have a 2001 Cherokee, that will become my 1:1 scale, but want a toy to play with while the kids play outside and at the park.

Greetings: I am new to crawling but not to the world of R/C. I have been racing on/off road since 1978. I tried crawling last weekend with a MRC and did well.(won) Now I'm looking to buy or build a 2.2 crawler. so far I'm looking at the KK ZeroT chassis, Bully axles, BL system, I'm still looking at rims and tires for our track (small tight indoor track). or I could wait for the new Losi 1/10th crawler....but I'll miss out on the comps coming up. Best Regards Bones

Hello everybody. New to crawling here. Just purchased a AX10 RTR and very pleased with it for a RTR. Had to buy one after seeing all the sweet crawling stuff on the web. Joel

Default allow myself to introduce... myself

i'm a newb. i live in Houston.

got into crawling through a friend who is a big RC guy and built his own Axial kit. started researching and convinced another friend who is into helicopters that Crawlers are a lot of fun. so - he ended up getting one built before me.

i am planning an AX-10 build. i purchased the CKRC builder kit today, so i will be looking into chassis, link setups, wheels/tires, and electronics soon.

i have learned a ton over the last 3 months or so researching, but still have a lot to learn. hopefully some of you salty vets can help me out.

general build plan -
AX-10 axles and driveline
Rockstar Chassis
CKRC Stage 2 Suspension upgrade
4 link rear
MSD Straight 6 beadlocks
Losi Rock Claws
lipos?
shocks/springs?
dig or rear steering?

thanks guys, love this place already.

Hi...my name is Chris, I'm from Bothell (near Seattle), Washington and I'm addicted to rock crawling. The most shameful part about it is that I don't even have a crawler yet :-(. I've been beating my friends' unbreakable CR-01...I will be getting an AX10 soon enough. LONG LIVE R/C ROCK CRAWLING! ROCK ON!
