Default back into crawlers, getting a Creeper...again

Well, for some reason the bug hit me again, so I had a guy that I did some website work for order me one for partial payment of services.

It was a decision between the AX10 and Creeper, but I really wanted a kit and had good luck with the creepers for my kids in the past.

I hope it comes with the new CVD Covers I read about. Then again I kinda liked making my own......

Prob have to get rovers/sv2/35T/bec/servo soon as well, or it might get bored sitting on my desk getting pushed around.

Hate re-buying what I once had, but ohh-well....at least I get to build a kit again...

Revo Ball ends seem to make good shock limiters...

I did not like the battery so high on the servo, and wanted to put my camera there, so dropped the lipo to the back links. Only 3.8oz for the battery so not to worried at the moment. Need to snip that switch and wire it together.

My front support was tweaking the chassis as I had to bend it to clear the motor. Looking for alternatives.

I would just put a saddle bend in the support...I figured it would give you issues when I first saw it...other's have used flat aluminum stock between the sides too....clean set bro...looks good...some link geometry issues but good start.

Not to double jack the thread but...if you want people to look at your rig then start your own thread...dont hijack other people's threads to show your rig unless you ask first. It looks good though.

I'm just trying to get it functional for a little fun outing this weekend. I could go broke on a few things I see on your site I want as it is....
