Rock Crawler
RJ's Leafed Ascender
My first real build thread. I usually don't have the patience for this but since this is my second Ascender I’m not so quick to build and crawl. I initially bought my first Ascender as an RTR. Had it for a while now and absolutely love it. It's been a great rig right out of the box. I had the same problems as most with the non HD gears. After I upgraded I have had zero issues. With that being said…on to the new. <?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

I got the kit version for this build. My kit had the new HD gears and HD drive shafts. The only issue with the kit was it came with 2 rear link trusses and no front. I emailed Horizon support and a day later they had the part in the mail. I appreciate all the previous build threads. I've learned a ton by reading through them.
