Default Rainforest crawling with my first crawler

This afternoon i have gone with my crawler to test it.

Everything is right, but i have a problem with one of the axles C's. The problem:





I think that's caused because the wheel axle is break off, and does not pull well, and bend the C.

Specs:

-TLT locked axles with ball bearings, axle C's, aluminiun knuckle and 1" wideners.
-Handmade tubular chassis and pede tranny.
-Axial 2.2 beadlocks with masher 2k.
-Towerpro mg 945 in both axle. Yes, it is not legal, but i don´t ride.
-Moped ESC and Integy 65T.
-Moded TQ3.
-Traxxas long shocks


And pics of this afternoon:








































I hope you like it

Thanks about your remarks


I have a trail truck, but it isn't necesary, there are good trail and the cars can cross without problem.


rccrawler is the best forum of rc rockcrawling, it's normally that there is members of other countries.


Regards

Tuber looks good You have a similar attraction to water like the ORCRC boys Lots of fun
I have never seen an axle C that bent, except from really big falls, and even then, not bad enough to pull the bolt out. Nice carnage.

Pretty interesting looking design. No "sides" though. So there's nothing protecting the sides in a fall.

But it looks easy to service though.

Your spot looks great, looks like a beautiful place to get away to...
