Crawler course ideas

[BsudRC]

This is the start of my Crawler course. I've got a bank that makes a 90° Turn and it's full of River Rock. Some med sized but lots of smaller ones. Med sized tree limbs about a foot or so long. I made kinda like a hill out of those big pieces of Wood (Not sure how that will work). Not sure how high to build my Rock piles. Y'all help me out throw out some ideas what you see is what I got to work with. The area all together is probably about 50ft long and the bank is probably about 8ft wide.

If anything, I would build yourself a rope bridge.

Only thing is I'd have to figure that out due to this area being sloped

i been working on it for awhile, but its mostly just finding rocks lol, thats the hardest part, i keep my eyes peeled on marketplace for free rocks, often people want em out of tyheir yards before or after construction, i also hit up construction sites, formans usually pretty cool about letting me have free scrap, they just like being asked first, makes em feel important lol

Your course and yard has also broken many a RC from what I've seen. Has to be the property and not your driving.

Hey Bsud, you are off to a good start. Keep it fun. Keep it a course you and (important) friends that stop by to try it can actually finish.

Here's my backyard for 1/18 scale back 2013 or so. Not extensive or very challenging, but fun was the thing. Good luck. -AC

That's the beauty of it, you can rearrange things until your happy with them.

The optic may do better on them than the TRX4 but I know what to do to make it manageable. I will just spread the piles out just little bit
