Oh What a shame....decent bit of kit but the startup speed looked quick with the wheels off....it won't cut it for this job. I'll put it in the sales section... Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Stumbled over this too,had to buy one at under the magic £15 delivered [emoji41]https://www.tiny4x4.com/tiny-4x4/electronics-tiny-4x4/brushed-2s-micro-crawler-esc/ Got to be worth a punt no? Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Love the new plates [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

The Emax servo arrived this morning,got it all fitted up and noticed it's a smidgen bigger than my other one but still mounted into the stock tray no bother.I did use two M1.4x8mm hex bolts and some 3D spacers I had made previously along with a dab of UHU Por. I have decided to dump all the stock electrics,this is a second 24 and if I'm building this to run along side my other,I'll not be content, what was I thinking? Anyway I found the factory Long link kit in the state's at fair value, so I'll wait and build this a Jeep as intended...there's no rush....I've got a awesome Jeep already and I want another one. It's gonna cost me for the ESC and DSMR Tx I know but it's worth it I feel...no point in going backwards is there? Yoshi [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Found a odd ball ESC on eBay today,it's a Nosram Force Mini Reverse. I believe it's a instant f/r type but doubt it has a drag brake.....it's only 26x26mm across the footprint with 18mm height I think.This might suffice untill I can get my hands on(afford)another BXR. Could be up for trade very shortly [emoji23] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Shakedown teething issues....so far sorted. Watch out though....first run with the brass hexes there was binding at the front, a quick measure later and the shoulder has been Dremel'ed from the back side of the front hex's around the drive pin slot,this then takes up less room on the axle and allows the pin to fully seat without the shoulder fouling the bearing.... giving a nice solid bolted up wheel that spins under its own weight,unlike the plastic hex's. Next up was the binding at the front axle... while using anything over 1/4 steering....the axle was trying to swing left to right binding at the front input shaft.....this was the driveshaft out of phase and easily sorted but really ? Checked the diff internals too and although quiet and smooth I added some Lucas Extra HD blue grease and worked it round turning the center driveshaft with my fingers before closing it all up again.....buttery smooth [emoji108] The servo saver is rubbish at best and only serves to completely ruin the connection between driver and direction.....nipped up for the time being......it's got to go. Added approx 13g of lead to the back of the front diff with some more to follow when I get round to cutting some up. Still to see rock's.......but it's all plugged together and looking tidy with it's new layout. I need to sort my course out also,as the trucks get better the course needs to evolve too [emoji2923] [emoji41] Yoshi Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

I bought another...the Deadbolt this time....mainly on price as I wanted another jeep or C10 thinking that it was a longer wheelbase and the optional extra parts would be in the box making the two trucks an even match to drive. I was wrong,the wheelbase is almost exactly the same..1mm...it's the layout of the center gearbox and in turn the link lengths that are different [emoji848] The Deadbolt has the gearbox much further forward with very short front links and super long rears?!? What I do know is that the Jeep most deffo handles better out of the box,the body is lighter for starters. So it was removed from the box,plugged in for 2 minutes with one of my Pack's to check functionality and stripped. Both battery mount and the ESC/Rx mount have been removed and a LCG battery plate replaces the front ESC mount with the ESC sitting between the frame rails where the battery mount used to be, it's much lower [emoji848] Stock hexes have been replaced with brass +5mm jobs and a heavier battery fly lead was made up to accommodate my mini Deans packs. A servo extension has been added until the new Emax ES08M# arrives and fuel tube has been fitted to all the balls on the steering gear. I've fitted a Rx switch again too,the lamps are a pain sometimes...it's nice to switch them off too. I'm going to try and get the stock tyres working this time round, they are a decent compound and look the part too but they just don't cope with weights well after a point, so I'm going to attempt some inserts to give them some support.....I don't really want to sink £50 into more boots [emoji31] Yoshi

You running a 1/24th by any chance.....I don't have a tenth crawler in the stable at the mo but I'm nearby. Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

I'm still using a stock Axial 88t brushed job.....totally different animal using a quality ESC with sympathetic (appropriate to scale) weight added. I see so many owners burning up motors really early too...it's just not an issue for me. I'm sure you will find your fave among the various 030,050 or even bigger offerings [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Shouldn't have problems with the BXR but B1R is less common,USA or China is about it for the little Tekins at mo... Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Tekins?...BXR is latest crawler specific w/p version same size and easier to find than the almost identical not w/p B1R @ 25mmx25mm. Novak did the Spy Micro but no longer in production as far as I can see. I love Tekin gear,not just a fan boy either....really good quality. Top pic is a scx10 running the BXR and bottom pic shows the B1R in a Scx 24. [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Chopped the Deadbolt stinger to fit the Jeep bumper mount,this is not an easy print in PLA....but this was the best of a 'few' Thankfully it's accumulating 'patina' immediately and hiding the shoddy finish... Also found a tiny what looks to be a USA number plate decal in a stash of old Axial decals,so made a number plate bracket and number plate from some pvc and painted the bracket black.... nice size and detail till some new custom ones turn up. +5mm brass wheel weights arrived today but not sure I'm going to fit them since the steel beadlocks went on...maybe just fronts I'm not sure. Funny but I spend much more time running this than any of the others,it works so well and keeps impressing me with each tweak and mod [emoji4] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Just missed it! Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm deffo chuffed with the looks and how they perform. Only had 10 mins or so with them on the rocks so far but they work really well on my sandstone and granite course [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

As above needs to be tidy and RTR posted payment via PP unless Newcastle area [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

Wheels today....treated my self to some fresh RC4WD stamped steel beadlocks and some Milestar Patagonia's. These are much heavier than my stock rims even with weights fitted so the rears have not been weighted at all with just 10g each up front. I also built up some fresh stock rims and tyres with 7g of extra weight over my previously 9g weighted stock rims. Ive actually have no complaints about the stock tyres it's just I can't actually fit that much weight to the stock rims and it's getting to the point where inserts would be a good idea.....needless to say side hilling is much improved with the new rims and tyres and I've noticed more accurate steering from the wider Patagonia's with the supplied inserts. Big improvements over stock [emoji41] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk

I think the Scx out of all the smaller 1/24th is the better option,it's got a quality build out the box and is halfway there(3 wire servo/reasonable low speed control and decent torque) It's at a level for ability and equipment similar to the RC4WD but focused on performance rather than scale. You don't need to spend much on any of them but if you want them to behave and work as a crawler,not scaler/trail'er the Axial won't disappoint. I've had a couple of the other branded 1/24th and I couldn't live with most of the bodies,wheels/tyres,overall gearing,lack of torque,poor two wire servo set ups....the Scx is in a league of its own even if it is over the Hundred quid mark....and I'm tight [emoji23] Sent from my BLN-L21 using Tapatalk
