Well it's pretty much done now, I got all the parts installed. and have probably about 1.5 hours of run time on it now.. I haven't broke anything yet, just ran into some nuts coming loose. It does pretty well, I think I am going to purchase some better tires, these (rock crushers) are more for show I think. Although I do like how tall they are...

Parts list:

-RC4WD Rock Rider 2.2 Comp Chassis
-RC4WD R2 Trans.
-Integy 55t Professional Motor
-Integy Droop Shocks (internal sprung)
-Mayhem Eng. Double Phatty's
-RC4WD Rock Crushers
-Visionary Fabrication Upper Link Mounts
-Visionary Fabrication Front Servo / Battery Mount
-Sidewinder ESC (waiting to hook up)
-Elite Series 2500 Mah Brick Battery Pack (waiting to hook up)
-Hitec Servo (front)

Lots of other bullshit, wanna know just ask..


Now for the pictures, enjoy!!!!

I found that spot today, it takes like 3 minutes to walk there from my backyard, It looks like they dug up a public road somewhere, and they brought the chunks of road here and dropped it off.... theres tons of it, and it is SUPER grippy, I can crawl all kinds of stuff, even with these crappy tires.. I popped out a few u-joints on this stuff, that's how grippy it is!!!:shock:

*Please note, ESC and Battery are not hooked up yet, still trying to work out the bugs with it, in these pics it has the stock wheely king esc and battery...



Comments?

Suggestions???

rig looks good this might be a little off topic but how do those work. they are what i am thinking of running.
 
looks great! the only thing I'd do is mount your battery to the axle, instead of the chassis. I did that same thing with my tuber and it was WAY too top heavy. It flipped over too easily because the minute the chassis started to roll, the weight of the battery would finish the job and roll it onto its back.
 
Yeah, I have a battery that's meant for the front axle, but it's not hooked up yet, still working out the bug's with my sidewinder esc...



I got rear-steering hooked up the other night, I am just using my stock servo in the rear... Works good around my house, haven't tried it on the rocks...
 
Rig looks nice. Ive heard of ways to make those rock crushers grip a little better. Whats the GC on this thing? I like rc4wd's design on there tuber. good job putting it together"thumbsup"
