What a great video and crawling spot. You definitely made that thing look beyond impressive. Every single line was challenging and it took it with ease. Bad ass!
My personal testing verified to me your for sure on track with everything you've said especially about putting on every brass and big tires. One thing I see watch mine climb I see the front end unloading even with your weight there is still signs of it still. I moved the rear shocks to a vertical position and added one 9/16 thick washers that I picked up at Lowe's for under $2.00 . No it absolutely can not make up for hard tires but the rear shocks really help unloading. Guys will burn up motors due to too excess weight mark my words on that one. But a trx4m transmission is dang near identical and u can bolt in any of the numerous options available
I was going to move the ESC to the front, then I thought about it. The weight of the ESC is next to northing. I would rather add a battery in the front or just some weight on the front platform.
Ordered mine yesterday with inner/outer brass portal covers & some gold aluminum diff covers. I saw that Cape Crawlers threw a bunch of brass on and the servo quickly gave up the ghost. I'll follow your advice and keep weight to a minimum.
The WL toys 1/24 drift car has tiny 2s... I'm getting ready to run two of them in parallel and put one on each slider... Just trying to move the battery forward and down, and split in half...
That's a lot of good advice. The wheels and tires look amazing.

Wow, that was impressive! Just a couple upgrades made that little rig a monster. Great vid!
All I did was outer portals on all 4s brass wheels and a reefs 99 servo and it handles real well
Yeah man, didn’t need much to be great

It’s tough to fit a battery up front. Only 25mm between rails. Put my battery and esc on sliders , removed battery tray and it works great
Nice video and I like your feed back, subscribd
Awesome, thank you!

It is because 98% of metal gear servos use brass & it is weak & soft. That is why high end servos use stainless steel gears instead like REEFS use.
Yep, lighter is always better assuming the balance and cg is good.
