Capra on Element straight axles. Build video coming soon. Hobbywing Fusion Se 1200kv 3gear trans w dig Vader flat skid w 3gear adapter 90mm desert lizard shocks
Hey Man as a former Jeep builder NERD, I can respect what your doing here with your R/C models. not many people can afford to build 1:1 scale versions of their dream rigs! the smoothness of your FWD only demo is something that my college mates and I could have only dreamed about in the late 90's
I built up a straight axle Capra with Vanquish F10s and it’s been fun to see how it compares to a portal setup. I’d say the improved maneuverability and stability pretty much overshadows the loss in clearance and learning how to navigate technical terrain without portals is a good challenge.
I love my AR44 axled Capra. Closer to scale axle width and it flat out works. I call it the Cheapra, an RTR 10.2 with a free cage, 90mm Proline shocks with soft springs, Fusion SE, Injora wheels and inserts, a Gatekeeper interior and well worn free KM3 Prolines. Damn fun rig.
Highly recommend getting rc4wd lower aluminum shock ends for the bottom of your desert lizards. They sell mini that are same size. You can see what happened in my last video but that one is 4ws and lizard's where practically new still
Ooh yeah the good ol' Fusion se mate, i got a 1200kv and and 1800kv. Pretty punchy systems with super smooth low down control. Mine though are geared relatively low, although one of my crawlers runs on 2.2's. I know what mean about stuff getting overgrown at this time in the northern hemisphere. Here in the UK my local woods get massively overgrown at this time, so much so i actually prefer going out in Autumn and Winter. Epic place though and super run, Capra is a mean crawling machine! 💪👌😉😊
I have yet to fully watch this but, it really depends on your terrain your terrain can do straight axles but terrain with sharp and jagged rocks typically portals will do better. However straight axles lower the cg so I get what you mean.
True, I find that with straight axles I can just change my lines a bit and work around any clearance issues. Also, the Ruptures are pretty tall so its less of a problem

I wish I could do full scale too. Lol, so expensive

Nice, Its almost annoying when a rig you just throw together ends up better than the rest. Lol

Just curious, straight up better than? Portal? Should do a Capra shoot out, straight vs. portal.
I definitely like it better on straight axles. Portals have a slight advantage for clearance but it handles so much better this way.
What rims are those ? 😮
