Considering a 1/10 scale crawler

[RLB454]

I wanted a "built not bought" but didn't have one, plus, that's kinda overdone
That sticker came on a sheet from a company I bought a part from and it seemed so fitting

Thanks pretty funny, I actually have a couple of "Built not Bought" stickers, I thought about sending one to you, but they seemed too big for an RC

The "Built from parts" fits better

Turned out great!

I'm hoping to get it out on a trail this afternoon/evening for a bit

Hoping to hit some trails sometime today. Nothign too crazy, just whatever I can find. Going to hit a walking trial I have been on before, but, it was before I was into crawlers so I wasn't looking for any place to crawl. I am sure there will be some areas with some small rocks or tree roots or something

Also need to get the lighter springs on, but, still can't find my took kit. Ordered a netter one, should be here tomorrow

I was able to get out
Brought my youngest along and made her my photographer/videographer
I'll get the vids up in a bit
This particular place didn't have a lot of good spots but it was still good day
The rig performed great

It's always a good day when you can get out and enjoy nature.

@Tallbump Gonna have to train your daughter to get out in front of the rc to shoot video, other than that she did a great job. I really need to get out and play, It's just so danged hot.

So I always thought that this sat a little high, and that it was weird that I really didn't have any options for shock mounting locations



I'm used to 24 scale so I thought maybe it was just a 1:10 thing
I started looking for different shock towers
Then I got to looking at it more
Are my shock towers on the wrong sides?

This is the front right. I have it on the front, driver's side. Which is front right if you're looking at it from the front.
But if you're in the rig, it would be front left
It looks like swapping them would give me the option to lay the shocks down at a few different angles

 

[RLB454]

Yup, those should be on the other side. The right side is the passenger side.

 

[Tallbump]

Yup, those should be on the other side. The right side is the passenger side.

I'll get that done in the next few days

Thanks!

Tool kit came last night
Hopefully I can get the shock towers switched around tonight
