Default MY New Rock Crawler Rig- RC

Hey Guys

Been Busy with my RC hobby- 20 years- and I started to get interested in RC Rock Crawlers.

This is my Scorpian AX10 Rock Crawler with Tamiya Wild Willy Body.

This is my course from left over pool coping.










You can see others on You tube- just type in - "rc crawler" or "AX10" to see what this thing can do- Its alot of fun and taking up my weekend creativity.

Looks good DB!
I'm glad I'm not the only one with the sickness... I've got 35 years in the hobby and over 50 RC vehicles. My AX10 will be built tomorrow...
