Oh, yeah, good eye. There's definitely a receiver in there. If it has a radio - hell yeah.

Dont know. I see an antennae tube sticking out the back
$16 for 2 tires new. Dont see much money there.

The tires are only $16 a pair? I thought GMade was some spendy top shelf stuff but maybe I'm wrong. My crawler knowledge is pretty limited.

They have tires 16-30 and the air wheel is 104.xx They seem decent. I'm pretty sure I own a set of there 1.9s. They are ok.

That's what it says on the Gmade site. The shop has some for $22 a pair on their site.

I do not feel this is a hot deal I need to run down there and get. I do not see any high dollar parts. It might be why there is no real description of it on the web page. Just the pic. I was hoping you all might catch something and go OOH. That didnt happen.
From the chassis to the wheels/tires to the motor I am pretty sure I could build one for what this costs. It is entirely possible the shop stripped anything of value and replaced it. They even list that motor in stock for $16.95.

This chassis is in stock at Hot Racing for $63.88.

If I bought it, the first thing I would do is yank the motor. Likely the ESC is Yeah(No Thanks)Racing as well.

Expert eyes here have pretty much put me back to the Gmade R1 kit for $255

Shop has moved. Website ditched. Pics are from months ago at old shop. GPS took me to old shop.
Wild goose chase
New shop has Redcat Everest and 2 MIP screwdrivers

Damn that sucks. I hate wasting time like that

I think I am going to by a Redcat Everest 10 or Danchee Ridgerock. Both are cheap, have extensive mods on the net and will let me eyeball the basic parts that go into a crawler for cheap.
I may find I don't even like crawling. Changing cheap parts for better ones makes more sense than buying anything else I have been seeing for 3 times as much to start. I am not into scale stuff either.

I can get an AX10 chassis from Integy that looks identical to the used truck pic I posted for $44. What I lack is the knowledge of the basic parts and how they fit together. So I will use one of these cheap cars as a skeleton to go by. The number of transmission and axle options is overwhelming. Then you get into the links and shafts to connect it all together.

The Ridgerock is 4 wheel steer and MOA. The Everest 10 is a shaftie with AX10 compatibility.

Thats what I ran in to when I wanted to build a custom MOA crawler a decade agao. I had no idea what to buy or how to build it lol

I got the last Everest 10 at the local shop. They had 2 yesterday. Now to solder a new connector on the esc wires for the lipo.
He said it's fun and the Ridgerock is trash. He usually tells me like it is.
