| Scaler night crawler......kinda
Well, I was on the fence about getting rid of my night crawler so I decided to switch it up a bit. It still crawls better than my scx10 but not a good as before. I am going to lower the body just a bit. Bt for now I'm pretty happy with it. Looks straight out of the 80's. ps: not done yet, still need bracing and bumpers

Wow, that actually looks pretty good. Kind of sad I ditched mine... Absolutely love the worm gear axles!

Keep the worms greased and you wont have a heat problem. I routinely run my LCC/Scaler on 3 mile trail runs. My rig is 8 lbs, has a 13.5 motor on 3S. Same set of HD worms for 18 months. Regular maintenance is key! I wouldn't trade my worms for any other axle out there. |

Running slow (averaged over five minute windows) is also fundamental for keeping the worms cool. | |

| Re: Scaler night crawler......kinda You're absolutely right Olle P, truck runs at a brisk walking pace (about 12MPH). I cover my 3 mile hikes, with stops for trail obstacles along the way in around 2 hours. |
