Default First clod crawler

Had many txt's and tlt's, so i thought i would give the clod a try.

Got my axles all done and locked and GD600 gear reducers mounted,
Narrowed txt wheels with clod tires
Spektrum Digital radio system
Stock silver cans
1/4 scale servos (all i got)
Traxxas Speed Controll (Again all i got)
"Old School" Wheel widners and Bead locks

Just waiting on the Rockbull II Advanced chassis ordered from rc4wd

Should be a fun truck, ill post some pics some time when i get the chassis.


And suggestions on what motors to get and some really highTQ standerd size servos?

Try a 45 - 65t motor from Axiom motors.

Popular motors and servos-
1-Integy 55t Lathe motor with 8t/9t pinion gears or whatever you want to experiment with(that way you can do away with your gd600)
2-Hitec 645 servos

Thats just my 2 cents

I don't think the 645's are heavy enough for a super, but that's just my opinion.

Let's see your axles with the GD600 setup on them?
