I am not an expert either but just throwing this idea out there. Most people want to go hog wild on the rear links for wheelbase with short fronts to keep the skid and weight up front. I bet if we had a corner weight system it would be interested to see it's front to rear weight bias. By putting the skid in the middle instead of front bias, it's probably finding it's tipping point much sooner than a skid further forward and initiating the front break over. Words are hard, does anyone understand the words that are coming out of my mouth? lol

It wanted to flip over because the limiting straps in the rear were causing the rear shocks to not hold the weight needed when on the incline, the rear shocks don't hold, and the longer front links don't help with that. Also, too much flex is often floppy, and rubber bands don't really fix that. Laying down shocks also causes shocks to not give as much push when compressed fully. Get shorter shocks, with stronger springs, and place them in a more upright position, with shorter front links, and it will perform better in the spots that this one failed.
Thanks for the great info! I had a little feeling that the rear straps were hindering it. Haven't really had a need to mess with suspension tuning YET but I'm definitely going to look more into it.
@@maxwellwills1816i really appreciate your reply to my comment, IMO it shows your great character. Most people do not receive criticism well at all. Also, most people don't like my opinion because i think that removing springs and laying shocks down horizontal is a noob obsession that never went away. Lol It's hard to fine tune shocks, and i haven't found the perfect limiting strap yet. Maybe there is a different kind of rubber? I'm still learning, and i know it's easier to say it than do it. That is a badass build! You should be proud. A little dialing... and you're golden! 😊

Maxwell, nice rig! I’m a sucker for a bug body even if it is a little small for it. Keep the roast coming it’s been hilarious, and watch out for the first step it’s a doozy.
I tried 4ws on a heavily modded deadbolt and it was fun. However like with the truck here, ya sacrifice the weight bias and lose your climbing ability. It’s just better for a small scale crawler to have a good front axle with lots of radius, or otherwise do a reefs servo with a metal axle in the front and a nylon with an emax it the back to make sure the weight is still more on the front.
Duuuuude we are TH-cam stars now! Lmao! Thanks man! Had to gather the family around with some popcorn and watch it on the tv. Definitely didn't make it any less uncomfortable lmao 🤣
hey man please keep this up! its like waiting an episode of a series 👌🔥 to max i suggest front overdrive, add brass knuckles and lastly switch the battery and receiver's place
It looks like rear axles is overdriven and the rear tires are moving faster than the front, that would be a source of it wanting to flip over a lot more if the rear is pushing instead of the front pulling. I did notice that front wheel that just stopped turning too, something is wrong with that axle shaft. It might work better with slightly longer rubber bands up front and none on the rear. I wonder how it would crawl in reverse? Symmetrical link setups are difficult to tune and manage, that's why the AX10 and the AX24 are not used very often in the stock configurations, some C10 front and Deadbolt rear links on that one and it would probably work much better. Love the VW, love the color and happy accident paint, it does need some tuning and tweaking to maximize the potential.
Centered skid, lipo up high/centered, and dbbl brrls are all balance issues. If the lipo was in the front of the chassis and he had a centered limit strap instead of the individual shock limit straps. That would help out quite a bit with the climbing issues. It would allow each wheel to drop instead of three wheeling on climbs. Droop is not your enemy. Like you stated. Shortening the front links will also move the weight bias where it will perform better. With 4ws rigs. F/R balance is harder to dial in when compared to drag axles. If he went with a metal servo up front, that would help weight bias as well. It hurt to watch a comp style rig fail where your tiny tire truck crawled right up.
Try the doable climb you said can be done again using more rear wheel steer come in at an angle with the front wheels up then slowly turn the wheels one way little by little a give it throttle watching how it’s reacting & if needed do the same with the wheels turned the opposite way using the same technique it may get up that way. Remember turning the rear wheels will keep the rear down.
It almost looked like the rears were spinning faster than the front. Opposite of over drive. Besides the short base and not enough weight up front, the lack of over drive is killing that truck
Like others have mentioned, shorter front links, and maybe adjust the rear shocks more vertical or higher spring rate, and no limiting straps on the rear. it's keeping the rear springs from pushing the front end down... just my thought, but I'm no expert
I think the combo of the double barrellls and no brass it's flexy with no counterweight, give it some weight down low and throw some oil shocks on, may help, but sweet rig for sure!!! Rock on!!!

Using rear wheel steer is like an art form it takes time there was a few spots where I think you could’ve made it with the proper use of it. The thing I noticed is the front lifting but as I’ve found once you get in that position with the front lifted stop & just move the rear wheels you’ll be able to see the front react & a lot of times you can use it to keep the front down but you have to slowly learn & it looks like you were starting to get a hang of it. Even with that I don’t think it would’ve made the line you said can be done & that’s based on wheel base.
As a total amateur in RC Crawlers, i just dont like the rear wheel steering its strange looking . Would look better with a bigger body ,but still appreciate the work Maxwell put into it ...hope the leg was ok 👍 Greetings from Latvia...Harry
Thanks for the easter egg! I have two of those just waiting for a good chassis like that! Can't wait! Also, please let us know you are still alive with that terrible accident and this wasn't our last video!
His servos are pointing down. He needs to shorten his upper links to level them out and even tip slightly the other way. C-Bolt (C10 front links, Deadbolt rear links) stretch is the best imo.
Looking at the 4 wheel steer and the body I just wanna give it some HAWK TUAH! and spit on that thang! 😂👍 On a serious note though...... I hope your leg is ok👍
Something maybe a bit controversial but I’ve not personally seen anyone else do is to run a lower grip style of rear tyre when using a very aggressive front pattern, it does actually have its merits!
Looks like c10 rears on both. With the added servo on the rear you need to compensate big time at the lower front. Speak from experience here as mine sucked till i added brass at the front. DJ Crawler inserts are amazing too, blue ones are super soft.. Edit, posted before the vid ended haha. Defo c10 x2
@@24Yepp I'd have thought so as it messes with centre of gravity. Ideally & most commonly you'd have shorter links at the front, you can tune the suspension easier but as it has the 4ws he needs to also add the weight at the front. Is the battery set higher than normal?
I enjoy watching your videos. I am not in this hobby.... Yet. I am confused about limiting the shocks with rubber bands. I can see limiting the center of the axle with rubber bands to prevent lifting but would think you are also limiting the articulation with all corners limited. Also, I hope you survived your serious injury. 😂
Man that leg looks bad my dude😰 might need surgery smae goes for the truck that thing was a turd😂😂 there is so much wrong going on with the geometry of the shock positioning and link positions and lengths of the links, looks like it had a gladiator rears in the front and rear lol but that’s just me.

I wonder if moving the battery further forward/lower would make any significant difference. I know it's a smaller battery, but it's up pretty high up.
Looks likes got overdrive in the rear pushing the front? Or no overdrive? Needs over or under. Woulda pulled some of those lines. Keep roasting!
I wish I checked, & I will!
I seen that. The rear was definitely spinning faster or the front wasn't engaging correctly
The beauty of rear steer is when you have full independent control of the front and rear. The mirrored or opposite kinda sucks tbh.
hey man please keep this up! its like waiting an episode of a series 👌🔥
to max i suggest front overdrive, add brass knuckles and lastly switch the battery and receiver's place
What is you designate a standard test wheel and tire combo and use that to judge all the builds people send you, that way tires will not be a variant.

Not sure but it almost looks like its going backwards..? Is it overdriving the rear tires?

When you struggled to say rear wheel steering it reminded of the scene in the movie Cooties where the gym teacher try’s to say duel rear wheel.
12:14 looks like the four wheel steering is not helping a lot ?
It definitely did help in certain situations, I wasn't too good with using it since it was my first time...
Links are set up like a ax24 (same front and rear) on a mazz cc chassis!? Never seen or thought of that.
I am guessing not enough forward weight bias. Moving battery forward/down and adding some brass up front would probably help a lot.
It almost looked like the rears were spinning faster than the front. Opposite of over drive. Besides the short base and not enough weight up front, the lack of over drive is killing that truck
