It's definitely a fun little crawler! Thanks for the compliment ??Good stuff man. Just picked one up earlier this week. Excited to do some tinkering.
Wow, great job on this build. Looks like it's setup really well. I was lookin at the same esc/motor combo, the 6 poles in a motor for these size rigs had my interest. How's the motor run in that wheelspeed and cogging wise? Considering doing the same setup in my rig if i don't have good luck with my brushed motorsView attachment 6099
Next I installed new electronics starting with a Castle Creations Mamba Micro X esc.

Then I swapped the stock brushed motor for a Team Brood Racing brushless "Noisy Cricket" motor.

Added a Futaba receiver to go with my transmitter that runs all my rc's.

I am using a Venom 1300mAh 2S lipo for this rig. Fits perfectly under the hood.

I cut a notch in the dash for the wires to come through & a small notch for the wires in the front of the battery tray.

Thank you! It's a great mini rig, just sold 3 of them at the shop I work at. The wheels & tires are on the proline racing website. Rock shooter 1.9 wheels & 1.9 Grunt tires. The wheels are currently out of stock though.Great write up, great mods! Luv the tire/wheel combo, can you give me your sores for them, please. Nice wheeling vid too. I'm going to pick one up when they come back in stock.

You may have burned out the esc/receiver. Are all the connections still tight? Do you still have forward & reverse, but no steering?I just got one but my lights and steering stoped working, I rammed the servo in a rock pritty hard but it still worked I don’t know if I need new parts or what ?
