Arrow zero to hero redcat creeper

hi guys,
long time in hobby, onroad, off road, 1/10, 1/8, 1/5 over and out. Had crawlers in the past and still have a CC01 (trail) and with all information from this forum I went for a RS10 (creeper ) as a present in new year.
I have exercised all my learnings from the forum, so maybe nothing new, but at least good remarks for new comers to RS10.

So what I've done so far:

Change all gears to steel, check all wiring and screws as some were not threadlocked and wreck the original servo immediately, replace with MG and waterproof it with plastidip:

then kill back steering:


and remove foams and add weight to front wheels:






finaly bend links in S, lower the electronics tray for a bit lower COG and droop shocks:


what comes next? actually only ESC, since I was an idiot to burn the original so got myself a twin motor waterproof ESC, waiting for the post to arrive.

please tell me what I miss? what to do to have a better creeper

while waiting on post, take front and rear ends apart and switch out metal drive pin with a hardened one or a needle bearing from a u joint will work with a little modding also snip every other lug off of tires. and rolling front end up is well worth the effort. hopefully new esc is ready for 3s
have fun
