Crawler build - 07.28.2008, 08:20 AM

Howdy. I've decided to build a crawler. I'm thinking probably the AX10 ARTR will do the job, unless anyone wants to say anything to make me steer clear of it?

I had read a while ago of people using Mamba 25s and stuff in crawlers, and without looking again, I went a bought my brothers Mamba Micro Pro esc that I was planning to use. This will be a pure crawler, I've got 6 other cars, including a 1/8th monster I use for general bashing. Will that ESC be really inadequate? It will be geared for serious crawling, I dont need speed out of it. I tried to look again and everyone is using 1/10th esc's now, MM and sidewinder etc.

I was planning to run the Mamba Micro pro and an Axi 28 series outrunner on 1100mah 4s A123 packs. Probably a 2826/10 or /12

Does this sound like a bad idea? I thought it sounded pretty awesome at first to be honest :) Let me know what you guys things (especially JRH, I've got this strange feeling your pretty experienced with crawler setups ) :P
