hi
i'm a newbie to the 1/18 scale rock crawling world but as you'll soon find out i've got a guru mrc, found a non running losi mrc for $80USD on ebay back in October 2010 and decided to see what hop-ups i could find, big mistake i found the little Losi has a pile of hop-ups.... so far i've replaced everything except diffs, receiver and controller, transmission input shaft, wheels and tyres (soon to be replaced), now running all alloy transmission by hot racing (housing and gears), novak mongoose ESC, brushless 18.5 turn novak motor, proline descender body painted blue, alloy shocks, alloy lockers, stainless screw kit, also replaced all the bearings... the following list is blue alloy bits and pieces, chassis plates, skid plate, battery plate, steer links, rear hubs, front C hubs and knuckles, clearance links, drive shafts, 3 link connectors, engine mount plate, i think i havent missed anything...

future mods are metal geared mini servo, alloy beadlockers with Mick Thompson tyres, 3 cell lipo battery, tamiya plugs

i've spent alot of time, effort and $$$ on it and it would be a crime if i dont post up some pics so i'll be posting some pics up soon

[Powdersummit]

Hello to everyone here at RCCrawler.com. I'm a machinist in north Idaho, have a decent amount of free time at work to build stuff but I'm more or less a newb to the crawling scene. Been lurking for awhile. I don't have a rig yet, still trying to figure out what it is that I want to build. I know it will be easier to buy something RTC but there is the side of me that says build something from the ground up.

[BackToThePast]

Hello all, Here's my obligatory intro post that nobody's going to read... ;-)

Anyway, over the last few months I've gotten back into RC cars. I built a dual brushless Zilla II to start:

Next, I built my Son an oldschool Hornet for Christmas, and his own Zilla II for his B-day:

We broke both Zillas out in the snow the other day, so they're both torn apart and in bags right now waiting on parts to arrive.

I ordered Aluminum cases, axles, and knuckles for mine, and CPE inner and outer axle stiffeners, and CPE's quick change axle tube kit for his. He also bought a Traxxas evx2 and muliplex 600 motors for his. Getting rid of the MSC and stock cans.

I just picked up a CPE Claw from the classifieds on RCMT and a set of Clod axles from Ebay. That's why I'm here... I'll post up a build thread and I'll be asking some Noob questions shortly! :ror:
