Getting Back Into Crawling

[HPIguy]

So after running the old crawler around recently, I've got the itch again. Picked up this little guy super cheap used, waiting on my crawler project stuff to all arrive and I'll post up a build thread. Should be good winter time living room fun with this though.

Losi Micro Trekker (might do a micro scale build over the winter)

Noticed the tires dig into the body when they're stuffed, so I did some trimming.

Going to remove the fake beadlocks and freeze the wheels and tires tonight so I can take the tires off and remove the foams. Been gathering up rocks in the woods around the house too, probably going to build a small indoor course.

Did a few mods today, de-foamed the tires and drilled an extra vent hole in the rims, removed the little spacer from the shocks for more travel. Much better articulation and traction now.

And, I've always really dug the look of the Honcho, so I made a micro honcho.

Thanks Patrick, I'm gathering up stuff for a scaler build next actually.
