Hope everything is well Erika.

Whats the current limit? I imagine its quite low, as in 1 or 2 small LEDs as servos get power from your receiver and not from a motor controller output.

What is MOA?

It does better than I thought great job where is that?

The radiators are behind the front shocks shrouded from air flow when moving and no fans, pure water transfers heat better than coolant boiling is not relevant at such low temperatures. Metal coolant lines and coolant tank would dissipate far more heat than plastic and silicone. Don't think IC cooling system temperatures no such thing as to cool with electrics except the battery.

I have a few boat ESCs and a boat motor all water cooled and am into planes their is a 40 gram 12 volt 5 watt aquarium pump but you gave me the idea for what to use for radiators no problem with a propellor for a cooling fan. I think car and boat motors from the same makers rust use a different housing or even a o ringed water cooled housing over the same housing.

Put your shocks upside down for lower center off cravety. And for a smaller footprint off esc's I use castle micro sidewinders. And smush them together resonlder the cables on the print. Is this a Berg? Greetings from Wim from Belgium

Very inventive

Great video thanks so I hit the sub button 🤘✌️

Hey Erika...what tool/lathe are you using? I am rebuilding a motor and I'm looking to smooth out a comm. I've never had one but I do like running brushed motors on my vintage cars, so it might come in handy. Let me know!

im glad your okay...thought you where resting...the course is looking amazing...great job kiddo

Yes, and then no.

That thing seems to perform much better than I expected, i think the extra weight makes it drive much more stable compared to a regular slash. It seems a little back heavy because of the overflow tank, but it seems to fly pretty good!

I remember the days I tested my ESCs, on my truggies I always had them geared for 40+ MPH and nothing got really hot. There used to be a lot of great info on a forum rc-monster used to have. There were plenty of people cooking their motors and they couldn't figure out. Some had under geared their motor and it cooked and binding somewhere could've been the issue. Others would gear their motor to the moon trying to go 10000MPH lol and sometimes the motor would be warm and sometimes it would get cooked. Every time I read stuff like that I would try to replicate it just to see if the same would happen to my motors and it never did. The freakish motor I have is a 2 pole 540 motor I used on my Mugen Truggy and that motor survived when I was trying to kill it. I opened it just to see what kind of magic was inside it and it was just a simple slotless Hacker copy motor. Now you have a perfect motor to rewind though and maybe it'll be better than factory.

Siiiiick

I love this trick! Such a RAD build! Bunch of ppl heading out to deer creek tomorrow morning at 7am to crawl before the heat hits if you're interested!

Why not portals?

It looks awesome, what is the make and model of the chassis?

Way clever

hi, what is the viscosity of the oil you are using ?

Nice work

You are killin' it! It's fun to watch your progress, as it helps the rest of us consider options for our builds, and methods we may have not considered otherwise. Keep it up!

We are here in the R/C Crawler news helicopter watching Erika take on this very difficult section. Notice how she is using reverse on the rear and forward on the front, absolutely amazing. There it is, she has done it. Thank you for another great video Erika.

Insane build! I did a warthog with rear gladiator links and driveshafts in front and rear. Thing was so unstoppable that I took it apart and built a regular crawler just for the challenge factor. ❤

Erica, u mentioned runnin out of dirt for fillin in your boxes. Wat about puttin some of the logs your wantin to get rid of, in the boxes, then cover them with the dirt? Its a win win. Yall are doin a good job on the revamp!

Looks amazing! Great job both of you...I would love to have a backyard RC track. Maybe when I retire and move out of NY 😂

lights would be pretty cool to give a glow under bridges and other places that don't make them seem like giant spot lights

Looks like its turning out great but lots of work. Nice video 👍🏾🔥

Looking awesome 👍

Girl, that looks fantastic! Feel like the roots in the tunnel would need to be more clear though (say I send my GSpeed through it, may not be wide enough), but that's just me. LOL Keep on, keeping on, hopefully will get looking good! ✌🏼😎🤟🏻

Looking like a world class crawler course. Thank you for another great video Erika.

What's good for the goose is good for the....Grapplers? Great vid!

How well did the needle bearing differential holdup?

👍

It was at 14:16 that I fixed my hair for the picture rofl. I was watching the ROAR nationals and missed your live stream. Yes, Lexan needs heat, there's a video of a guy that makes rc vehicle bodies and he explains everything. He did mention the heat because his set up iirc is on a timer and his oven and/or heater elements got cool which messed up one of his bodies. Which is the reason I mention some sort of angled piece that you can use and bend the Lexan over it. To make the cover, try to make a mold that way you can put the Lexan piece over it and you heat it up and bend it into shape. Can't wait to see the finished guard. Thank you for another great video Erika.

thanks for the video

If I were to send you a vintage 4" dia 3 jaw chuck for free, where would I send it? Also, on the 30mm X 3mm spindle thread: is it a 6H class right hand thread?

Riley you are sexy and what you do is sexy! That chuck is super low profile. Wow.

Even the most skilled of machinists break parting tools. They’re an essential tool but can be a pain

My brother has a 1946 Bradford lathe that was built right after ww2 ended. It’s big n heavy but still works like the day it was made. I had a 50’s bench top Atlas, and he had a big craftsman before he had the Bradford. Old lathes are so much better than that Chinese stuff available today. Love this Erica. Great video

A beat the creek chuck! Just kidding but its definitely mint. Wickid awesome 💯🤸‍♂️👍

I'm a sucker for cool old tools and this is crazy cool

Skills that most will never have, yes including me rofl. Thank you for another great video Erika.

😍 TOOLS you can use to make more TOOLS with!!!!! ❤️ Some absolutely gorgeous metal and metal work there!!! And reusing stuff to make functional! Old school mechanical engineering! LOVE THIS! The foot pedal and shelving is functional ART! WELL DONE!

Next time he hits that ledge tell him to use the front dig he would not have fell over 💪🏻👍🏻

Awsome build! Need new tires. Love my hyrax or I did…but What amazing coastline? Where in world are you located?

Nice to see you made it to deer creek! How'd you like it?

Nice work I do masonry stone work of all types so respect the rock work! Great course to play on!!

Nice driving 4ws Shafty? Very nice custom work!! And excellent driving skills got that rear steer down!! Awsome footnsave!

At 1:24 that crab walk was perfect, first time I've seen it used in crawling. Thank you Erika for another great video
