but yeah put some weight in the wheels and move stuff toward the front

post a pic of your cc01/xc. Mine are really planted and they all have a really low COG due to everything being in the chassis (thus being lower than the tops of the tires mostly).

Trim the fenders or get a body that will fit better.

I think my hardbody CC-01 is right on par with my lexan lid 1.9 scale rig. Actually, I think the CC-01 might be better at off camber situations.

Have to remember that the CC-01 has very limited suspension movement when comparing to a SCX10 based rig. They are also narrower too.

Are you running full stock stiff foams in those tires? My Pro-lines look almost flat when my CC-01 is sitting on flat ground... Might try a different foam setup to allow the tires to have a bit more "give" and to lessen the bounce effect that seems to make the CC-01 based rig to roll faster.


.... drop that body too... I can see it's underwear.

I trimmed the front fenders and the front bumpers corner I have now my bodyto sit lower about 6 or 7mm and still roll over easily I see some videos of the cc01 on youtube and this truck seem to roll easily is not good for crawling or trial I think only trail running


body lowered shot :




toyofast : I run no foam at all in the 4 tires and no hole in the rims.

ya they seem to roll over fairly easily... add more weight to the wheels.

I maxxed out my 12 OZ limit. I think I put 60% of the weight in front and 40% in the rear

It still looks a bit high. The bottom of the body should sit at the bottom of the tub chassis. If you need to cut some more you can always cover your cuts with some fender flares.


I would just buy a Lexan Unimog body and be done with it.

what degree are you side hilling?? My S10 that i'm building on (still) I tested it the other day on the walk in front and it ran at a 45 degree side hill no prob. Set up looks like yours--placement anyway. maybe its your shocks, what are you running? Could they be compressing and rolling the body over then the whole rig??? I have no holes or foams in my tires either.
