Very cool and beautiful crawler, excellent work my friend!)
Thank you! Hope it inspires you🤙
Sub'd. Great job! It came out great! Just a few recommendations. First, mount the bottom of the rear shocks to where the links are. You just use longer screws. It will give you a bit more droop to the rear. Second, I think you can benefit by lowering the powerwagon body a bit more. It is still sitting a bit high. It will mean that you will have to trim the body a bit more. Third, I know you mentioned that you might not need the High Clearance links, but that makes a huge difference. I would reconsider. Lastly, I am not sure what size battery you are planning to use, but most folks put the ESC and receiver on one side, and use the battery on the other side. This helps to balance out the weight. Other than that, just try few tweaks at a time, and adjust. I think you will love it.
Thank you for subbing and for all the great advice!!🙌 I never thought about attaching the rear shock to the lower link. Thats a great idea! May I ask what are the benefits of increase droop in the rear? I was thinking less is better ; I'm at 40% droop in the rear and 42% in the front. The closest side weight distribution i can get is this current configuration of electronics. The 550 motor and the steel gears from factory are too heavy.🤦 Thanks again for you kind words.
@@danielsonhobbies Everything comes down to lowering the CG without adding additional weight. For the rear shock mounting position, it helps on steep climbs. It reduces the pull back of the front. Kind of hard to explain, but I suggest you try both position and see which one you like.
@@BigSungHobbies k definitely will try that! What setting do you have for the rear upper link?
I know this video is a few years old , but really cool simple to the point informative video.. I wish there were more of these for newer To the crawler hobby. SO now here we are in 2023 and this video still holds water because I’m building two trucks , An Element Enduro stock , and a Element kit 0:02 comp Chasie .. perfect information..😎👍🛞🛻🛞
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the support and feedback🤙
Nice rig.....I love your running brushed
Thanks Jett! Brushed systems are effective and cheap. What motor are you running?
I noticed the axle play as well right off on my Trailrunner. I still love it
Despite its flaws, i still love it too. Thanks for stopping by🤙.
Great setup!
Thank you! It was fun to build.
nice looking truck man!!!
Thank you!🤙
Like how its clean and simple looking not a gob under the body
Thank you!
Awesome rig my RC friend 👍 SUBBED
Nice painted cab. Mind if I ask what body posts you used front and rear? I have an enduro kit coming in next week and hope I can reuse body posts with the kit
Thanks. I used GSpeed body post holder for the front and the rear body post is secured on the Salinas Design concepts bed. Body posts PN #AXI230025. Hope that helps🤙
@@danielsonhobbies great info. I am debating between this one and gspeed Cheater bed (comes with body mount). Both seem to be solid option. Thx again for the detailed info
@@jackking5631 i would go with the GSpeed bed. Happy building!
25% overdrive?? Could you share how you did that? sounds super nice! I loved the video, I'm thinking about getting those tires too!
Hi Ricardo! I will definitely do a video when I finished my class 2 revision again😁, but i actually found all the information in the manual. Feel free to hit me up on FB if you have any question in the meantime (contact info is in my youtube bio)Thank you for the support🤙
Hi, awesome rig! I’ve just got the Salinas bed and have seen you have body mount pegs in yours. Can you tell me who makes them and where you got them? Thanks in advance, Scott
Thank you! I used AX 31391 for the post on the salinas bed. I cut closest to the body pin insert, then drilled a hole to match the screw I am using. The salinas bed should come with holes at the front. Hope this helps. If not i can make a video for you. Happy building🤙
What size Solinas rear bed did you get ? 70mm or smaller or larger ? And did you need a custom pan hard link bar ? Or did the stock one fit ? I want to try this chassis with a TRX4 but have a few things to work out , the main one being the skid (shapeways) or maybe the Whiskey Mod Skid or even an SCX10 aftermarket skid and just go with an axial pattern transmission,, but I’m hoping the stock pan hard link and stock steering link will work with the build , it’s very hard to get custom links In my part of the world 🌍 🇮🇪,, great build and video buddy 🙂🙌🏻
Thank you G9000! I bought the 156mm (lenght)x 70mm (width) salinas flatbed. For the panhard, I used the stock Element link which is 112.5mm and I also used the stock steering link which is 102.20mm. All the skid you mentioned will work, however you will need custom links to achieve desired wheelbase. Take a look at the Vader skid which also has a traditional Axial bolt pattern. Are you trying to use the TRX4 axels with this chassis? The panhard and steering links on the TRX4 are different than the Element. Hope this helps!🤙
@@danielsonhobbies Thanks for the information Joe , yes I'm trying to build a G Speed CF V3 with TRX4 axles and Trans , I was going to try the Multi Point Pan Hard Link Mount from Shapeways or the newly available G Speed one (metal or aluminium I think) I just wanted to get an Idea as regards the WIDTH of the Flatbed You chose , I'll go for the 70mm width and 156mm length same as You did , If You know of a Pan Hard Mount Link that could work for the TRX4 Axles let me know bud :) ,,looking forward to the next video :)
I have seen most people using the GSpeed G-MP mount for the panhard setup and reusing TRX4 old link but extended out as needed. Another option would be to cut and re-thread your old links to make your own. Most custom links uses Traxxas 5347 end links.
Thanks for your kind words! Getting close to finishing up my class 1 for the next video! Happy building🤘🤙
@@danielsonhobbies look forward to some video of the C1 Joe , have a nice day bud ✌🏻🇮🇪
Great build.....
Where did you get the rear body mount?
You can use any type of body post that will fit. I had some left over from AX31391. I just cut to proper length and drill a hole on the bed to mount. Hope that helps. I can make a video if you need🤙
Hi!...haw much Is largest the skid?tank you!
The white skid plate is a TJRC delrin skid. Its sells for $22.
Is there a benefit running the shocks upside down?
Its a free mod to help put the weight down low. Some say shocks dont work properly and might leak, but I havent experienced any of that. Hope that helps🤙
@@danielsonhobbies thanks mate I'm gonna give it a go
Where did you get the rear body mount?
I used an axial part. Hopefully this video will help > th-cam.com/video/4DiWNn0fgGc/w-d-xo.html
Do you have a different motor now and high clearance links?
This was the very first setup. It has gone through many iterations. Currently running a forward motor setup with transfer case and straight axle front and portal rear. Its setup more for comp instead of free crawl.
@@danielsonhobbies nice! What motor you running now?
@@covecityboysI tried different motors but eventually went back to Holmes brushed 13t.
@@danielsonhobbies cool cool. I run a Team Brood Creep 27T 0° timing and it’s insane! So strong!
Been wanting to try those motors too. How is the slow speed control and durability?
Yes the plastis hexs look like wl toys hex junk
What bed is that?
Salinas design concepts
@@danielsonhobbies Thank you!
@@danielsonhobbies Thank you!!
see a million off those
Yep still love it!
25% stealth x i thought it just went to 12%
12% comes with the kit. I bought the Knk 25% for more OD.🤙
