|  My CR-01 TLC
Well got my CR-01 yesterday,and have been busy building ever since,I haven't had to follow instruction before,all my builds have been homemade stuff,now I have all the parts in the box, so this shouldn't take long.   step 1&2  step 3&4  step 5&6  step 7  step 8&9  step 10&11  the chassis is set and axles done.Heres a comparison between the CR-01 and TLT,in total the CR-01 is one inch wider.

I couldn't wait to get the wheels done so I skipped a few steps.These things are soft and sticky.Talk about alot of screws,80 tiny screws and some sore fingers.I added some weight,5 1/4 oz in the front,3 1/4 oz in the rear,thats all I had so it will have to do,I also starred the foams step 30  The fit and finish is perfect,thats Tamiya quality,the beads fit like a glove.   Heres a comparison to the rock claws.  Last edited by srjeeper; 04-26-2008 at 12:23 PM. |

Heres my choice of electronics.  step 12-14  step 15  step 16  step 17-18  step 19-20  step 21-22  step 23-25  Thats a 55 turn motor,with a 16t pinion,the motor looks better without the sticker. |

Its running and I'm very impressed with this thing.I haven't got the body painted yet,i hate masking,painting and can never make up my mind on a color,I have orange,white,black and silver.I plan on orange with a white roof,or orange with a black hardtop(like a jeep),or full silver.I'm losing the battle with the masking tape,so it might end up one solid color. I will get some video tomorrow,with or without the body. Last edited by srjeeper; 04-26-2008 at 10:34 PM. |
