You have done it again Neil. This is some funny stuff, especially the milkman one, I love that!

any update on how you like the CR-01 i found on another site they are going for 280 shipped and cant really make up my mind between one of these or an AX10

I really like it. It is much more complex than an ax10, and the ax10 may be a better crawler. The tamiya is more of a scale 2.2, while the ax10 is more for comps. I prefer the tamiya, as I feel it is built better, but that is just my opinion.

im just looking for something to dork around with, plan on putting my grandpa's new rock patio/ rock garden he is building to good use, i cant decide between the two, the CR-01 looks so awesome and from what i read crawls better than any one would think it would, i know the AX-10 is a good platform and it is 70 bucks cheaper too.... what kind of runtime you getting with the brushless setup and the 5000ma cells?

Well, I radared the truck, with the 13.5 novak, stock 20t pinion and the 5000ma pack I got 13mph. It is faster than most rock crawlers, but it still crawls great due to the sensored motor. It will wheely, and I have abused it quite a bit. Runtimes are stupid, I have not drained a pack yet, and have about 45mins on it. I bought a novak crawler esc, as the ss does not have the neutral brake, and is a bit slow to go into reverse. Otherwise the ss esc is great, does not get hot, and the internal bec has plenty of juice to run both 645 servos and move the wheels even at standstill. The kit has a bunch of parts, and some steps real require 4 hands to do. But I love building kits, and it was fun to do. If you decide to go with rear steering, you will need another servo saver. I do not use the servo savers, just the plastic arms that came with the 645 servos. I had to trim them a bit, but all of the linkages work fine. I set the rear with less throw than the front, and it can cut donuts like a full sized monster truck.

from what i understand its normal to see 2hour runtimes when using ultra high turn crawler motors and high capacity sub-c or lipos, most guys run the 2/3a 1500 cells and can get 30 minutes out of these, very surprising...... and with 13mph and brushless linc if you get hung up on a rock you can just back up and launch that thing over it lol thats wild

Yep, this chassis has great suspension, and can handle the incresed speed. I do a bit of scale jumping, and it is plenty strong to handle 1ft jumps, and the crashes. It is alot of fun, and a welcome change of pace.

So you have it running?

Me?

The cr01 runs fine. I have about 1.5hrs on it.

BL_RV0 06.01.2008 11:30 PM

Then where are the Damn pics? :lol: :tongue:

Calm down Beavis:slap:

It looks just the same, save for the deans plug. I painted the body, but need to put the body posts together and fit it up. I run everything with the body off, this lowers the cg a bit and limits the rollovers. I do need to finish it.

I was contemplating putting the 6.5r hv motor in it, just on 2s. And gear it up to the 25t pinion max. It would have tons of torque! We will see...

BL_RV0 06.02.2008 11:14 AM

That would be cool. A scaler doing a wheelie would be neato.
