Losi Mini Rock Crawler Upgrades

[hamz9561]

I just got a new Mini Rock Crawler and am looking for good upgrades for a more casual type crawler. I've already installed LiPos. Any other suggestions?

Just to clarify is it the mini 1.9 version or the newer micro version, Losi has so many different versions of rock crawlers right now it is hard to keep them all straight, LOL!!!!

It's the Mini with the 1.9 in wheels.

First thing I would upgrade are the shocks and tires that will make a huge difference, The Losi aluminum shocks work well and the Proline Chisles for the 1.9 wheels also work well from what I have seen at comps, Also you will want to do the full size steering servo mod, a Hitec 645 works well on the 1.9's.

The steering servo conversion sounds good. I have the 5645 digital version here doing nothing.

Here is my build maybe it will help? Mine is no where near done either.

What is needed for the full size servo conversion? I couldn't quite get it to fit and to be secure enough for my taste with the stock mount.

Id get the rcbros mount. I want to eventually. Mine has a modified axial one. but the rcbros has a 4 link setup on thiers.

Here is the link to a few of thier mrc parts. They have a bunch and are good quality.

Has anyone had any expereince with the Mongoose Crawler Micro Brushless System? I've been reading that some people here have had problems with the larger Novak ESCs.
