I love how you explain everything your doing, letting us know how every turn every wiggle is done with purpose. That dog is wild man. Also I love all those talks you run. We have some cool stuff here in NYC but nothing like that beautiful dessert
Thanks, I am trying to share my thoughts and add a little more to the videos. I know that music is very divided on what people like so I just talk as I go. It helps me think through it too
You need to get someone to come out and film for you. You make some of the best Rc videos and are very good at explaining what your doing and why. Im bouncing between a Capra or Gatekeeper and love watching your videos on them.
Very cool build. I love my Gatekeeper. I keep thinking I should put an Ecto body on it but this video reminds me of how much I like the looks of the GK.
Awesome car I like what you've done with it. It's gave me some good ideas for my Gatekeeper. Great driving and great place to crawl thanks for sharing!
I miss the gladiator.... Would have been a good scale straight axle conversion. I dont care what your crawling though as long as you keep sharing these awesome spots
Say it again you have taught me so much this should be called your channel should be called 101 rock crawling obviously for RC but you do know what you're talkin about also on big buggies I seen you save things that you know that will work
Your Gatekeeper compared to your Scx10 is like my Axial Ryft crawler compared to my Scx10 iii lol it's a beast compared to it,wish I could send you pics on here. The Ryft actually makes a hell of a crawler,I love it.
@@westdesertwheeler yes it is! and it's 4 wheel steering which is a first for me. It's a whole different world for sure. Really enjoy your videos man. Your the reason I chose the Gt5 radio for my 4w steer on my Ryft,awesome content and info from your channel🔥🔥
Its a toss up for my gspeed v3 im thinking boom racing hustlers (the 4.75 or 4.5 that come with 2 stage foams) but i like the look of the scorpios or the braven berserkers............these three tires arent ran as much and im into trying stuff that not every one runs.......how do you like the berserkers? Also not as many guys run the spektrum crawler combo how do you like it?
I haven’t tried the hustlers, beserkers have been pretty good. Compound is a bit tougher than G8. They last a while and I love the 2.2 height. This spektrum system is running cool, smooth and quiet
@@westdesertwheeler if you’re starting to get brown out, which that is, it’s generally an issue of amps not volts. I think that spectrum ESC is putting out 4-6 amps on either voltage setting.
@@westdesertwheeler sall good! Put a castle BEC and a Holmes hobbies dual bypass servo wire setup on that rig and crank it up to 8.5 (if the servos will take it!)Watch them wake right up.
Oh come on, throwing it off a cliff is a bit excessive if your looking for an excuse for a rebuild isn't it? Rig looks great and preforms just as well. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this thing.

The goatkeeper has a mind of his own. . Please don't loose him again. Loving the Velcro strap.
GREAT DRIVING, and a beautiful place, thank for the show,

thanks for the love bro!
Anytime dude! Always looking forward to your next video

Glad you like it
I found the pit bulls non conforming on my gatekeeper . I run jconcepts. Duel foams. You tought me about foams. Thanks brother. . I love your keeper.
Yeah the goat keeper is back. Awesome man
The Gate-Capra!
Great video. Like the background view.
Yeah it’s cool to be above the city
Nice driving, awesome rig, appreciate you sharing I’ll be here watching more
didnt think i was a 4ws guy but this is an amazing video! I love it man....
brother, i am lovin your drivin style!!! I too am a slow crawl junkie.....so much fun;)
Awesome explanation. Thankyou . You helped me figure a couple of spots out on my track. 4ws rocks
I miss the gladiator.... Would have been a good scale straight axle conversion. I dont care what your crawling though as long as you keep sharing these awesome spots
I think the gladiator would be awesome on AR14 axles and big tires
Thanks for the recommendation drove down from nephi on Sunday and had a blast at pioneer park!
It’s got tons of great spots!
Awesome Logan. . Ledgend
Awesome driving man!!!!
Glad your enjoying your gatekeeper hows full time youtube treating you.
Good, lots of crawling!
Rear stearing for me next. So cool. Only have a 1/24 with duel stear . I love it so it's time to step up
Say it again you have taught me so much this should be called your channel should be called 101 rock crawling obviously for RC but you do know what you're talkin about also on big buggies I seen you save things that you know that will work
Looks like it functions nicely. Good climbing video!
It did decent, I’ll try and get it driving a bit better with some tuning
Great video and play by play.
Glad you liked it
Slick build man. Really enjoyed this video!
Thanks Mike!
Wow this has been a great build. I might have to get one.
It’s been a fun one to experiment with
I know its from a while back but where the cage is broke have you tried the super glue, cigarette ash trick
Your Gatekeeper compared to your Scx10 is like my Axial Ryft crawler compared to my Scx10 iii lol it's a beast compared to it,wish I could send you pics on here. The Ryft actually makes a hell of a crawler,I love it.
Yeah it’s on a whole other level

Front knuckle weights?
Awesome! 😀
Sick steering angles. What knuckles/housing are you using?
Plastic Capra housings and knuckles. Just tuned the servos to go all the way to the stops
Can I ask what you were doing before west desert wheelin??
Worked for a fun company, I also have a gun channel West Desert Shooter
Good job for changing jobs lol, I'd love to get to that point, time will tell!!!
Cool video. Overdrive in front and Under drive in the rear??
Oh, also what are those wheels? Thanks
Wheels are off Amazon. Overdrive in the portal gears. Thanks for watching
Spectrum firma you're really getting up there on the world ha Logan?
Hahaha
Haha yeah it’s a nice system, I haven’t heard of many people running them.

@@westdesertwheeler 2.2 is another World on planet crawler 🤟 i love it also 👌
Probably should be running a separate BEC if you’re running 2 servos.
I might be able to bump voltage up in the ESC, I need a different programmer
@@westdesertwheeler if you’re starting to get brown out, which that is, it’s generally an issue of amps not volts. I think that spectrum ESC is putting out 4-6 amps on either voltage setting.
Let me be clear; the BEC on the spektrum ESC which is actually a hobbywing product.
You’re correct I meant amps
@@westdesertwheeler sall good! Put a castle BEC and a Holmes hobbies dual bypass servo wire setup on that rig and crank it up to 8.5 (if the servos will take it!)Watch them wake right up.
😁😁👍👍
That first obstacle, fucking love it!! I like doing obstacles that are nearly impossible!!! Did ya ever go back and accomplish that one??
Thanks man, I might try again in the future with some tuning
I'll look for it...if you remember tho, let me know
Oh come on, throwing it off a cliff is a bit excessive if your looking for an excuse for a rebuild isn't it?
