| RCP-Tracks scale crawlers & foam course.
John from RCP-Tracks contacted me to build him 4 scale crawlers to run on a custom foam crawling course he is building. The plan was to make 4 scale crawlers similar to what you would see on a crawling trail. They were originally supposed to be 50/50 rigs with the standard RBX chassis but due to errors out of my control I had to make due with what I had and finish them as cloase to the dead line as possible (dead line was yesterday). Thanks for the help assembling the rigs halfcab! Here are the details and pics. 12"+ WB ~3" center clearance RBX chassis Locked TLT axles Locked Pede tannies 60/40 link setup 45T Lathe motor 64 pitch 120T Spur / 16T pinion Narrowed RPM wheels Maxx shocks, front have 2.5 coils removed Hitec 645MG servos (2WS) 4oz of lead shot in each tire Click here for a Slide Show of all the pictures.

That looks cool. Looks like they came out of some kind of sick crawler cloning machine. About the foam courses. I have a guy that does rock facing for buildings and was going to let me have any leftovers so I could build a course in my yard. I will post how it goes. Supposedly falls along the lines of foam/concrete as well. |

Wow I like the idea of a foam course. How is he making it? The rigs look pretty badass but I am a sucker for a scaler. How long did you have to build all of them? -Will
