Donate an be done with it.. if you can't save,20 on ur first 3 buys, ill pay ur 20$ back! I saved so much in the classifieds that I went with a gold star.. just from some of the money I have saved, makes it all worth it.

so just got back in from some mild crawling and well the creeper kept up with my girlfriends redcat rockslide 1/8th crawler. was nice riight after a rain storm ad most was slick but man can it crawl. the only thing is it roles over often. Oh and this is the first time i have been able to use the DIG and ya its awesome. I do know I need to get some I think its HB Rovers for it. I am in the process of getting a high torque servo. Will a HT airplane servo work? I would post some photos but none came out well because it was dark but will next time we go out.

[Thumpingbeetle]

Also will the HB white dot rovers fit on my stock wheels and line up right?

[Thumpingbeetle]

a size 2.2?

[winnerone23]

Yep, yep, yep... White dot rovers! They work perfect! They will really make it crawl!...
What for weight are you running in th wheels? Is it rolling over sideways? Or The nose back over onto the roof?
Any servo over 300 oz will work..

[Thumpingbeetle]

Will they work well on trail runs too because a lot of places we go its steep hills with rocks all the way up. None yet haven't had the chance to put any weight in. How much and where do you recommend? Ya its rolling over on its side and sometimes it will sit down on its ass.

you can put 4 to 5 ozs of sticky wheel weights in each front wheel will help it alot i got 9 ozs in each of my fronts and 3 ozs in each rear but my rig is all around heavy

[Thumpingbeetle]

so just ordered the rovers white dot. got them with shippingfor 37. now I cant wait to get them in from all the great reviews I've seen. so my truck with a 4000mah lipo in it I get about an hour and a half of run time. packed my truck into where we were crawling and crawled for about 45 min then drove it about a mile and half out of the place back to the car. awesome. Next I think I'll get the xxl big bore shocks like you said winnerone but am going to wait until I can get on te classifieds which will be in another couple of weeks. not going to be able to drive for a week or so anyways so not a big deal. I have the weights but havent put them in yet, I'll do that once I get those tires in so wont have to take them apart twice. Thanks for all the help guys. Also I heard venom is being discontinued? Is this true?

[Thumpingbeetle]

Just found lipo monitors with LeD and alarm for 6 bucks. Hobbymate 2 Cells Lipo Battery Low Voltage Monitor LED / ALARM (HBA2S) | eBay I know you all probably have esc's with lipo cutoffs but i havent gotten there yet and needed something to savemefrom stupidity becaus some times it sneakss up on me.

[Thumpingbeetle]

Just got in the rovers. Are they suppose to be flat on the bottom? The foam doesn't touch the tires on the inside.

Looks great! What for weight did you put in? For mine it was like 8oz up front an 3 in tbe rear.. I have lessened it since, like 5oz in the wheels, 3 oz knuckle weights an down to 1.8oz in the rear, but then again, mine is a 2.2 comp rig. So for scaler, my scale rig is around 6oz up front an 2.5 oz in the rear... I think.. lol... Can't remember the rear... Maybe just 2oz.. for scale the foams will work, or dual disc foams from Rmdw for crawling, or on the mix side of scale an crawling, 5.25-5.5" DD nova foams...

[Thumpingbeetle]

Miss placed all my weights but going to do 6 up front and 3 in the back I think maybe less in the back. So I need to change the foam. Will do next week. Still trying to find those lcc or traxxas shocks.

hey winnerone whats the name of those lcc shocks and if you have the part number can i have that too? I really want the setup like yours but cant find a set of the big bore shocks with the springs and only 4 they come in packs of 8

[Thumpingbeetle]

[Thumpingbeetle]
