I finally got the time and funds to buy the wheel widners and adj.motor mounts from Thundertech to get this clod up on all fours. After making
several connections with Deans it seems that I have nothing coming from the TRX ESC unit. No light comes on to indicate power coming from it ,so whether im doing something wrong or the guy sold me a fried ESC just
pisses me off!
anyhow, this crawler is real close now to completion and still hasnt been driven to date. Just thought id show her off for now!!

I'm wondering if the ends of the battery might drag on the rocks I know that my chassis has scrape marks in that area. Nice looking rig though

Thanks!

As for the battery I was gonna turn it around like that
on a Gecko II chassis which lies inside and inbetween
the TVP chassis. I just never got around to it yet, im
lazy these days.

Try a different battery , or recheck the soldering joints.

Also check the polarity of your connections.Not sayin your dumb but I've done it getting frustrated with soldering those little b@st&rds!
