Losi Mini Comp Crawler
This little rock crawler started out as a stock Losi Mini Crawler I purchased from the EFExpo. I modified things as I broke them or wanted more performance. It transformed into this crawler after many upgrades, and was finally traded off for the Traxxas Slash I now own.
I picked up this chassis seconhand from a RCC member on the cheap and decided to rebuild my MRC. I had a bit of fabrication to do to get the chassis as it sat to within the Comp Rules (8.5" wheelbase)... I had to pull in the lower links by an inch or so to pull the axles in. The included motor mount wasn't my cup of tea so a new one was made, mounting was a bit cleaner with the new mount, and a little lower. Friend of mine cut out some 4-link servo plates out of G10 and off we go...
Info:

After making the motor mount, buying a little hardware, fresh panels and a little paint its done. Some quick tests in the yard on the small rocks, its working well so far. Need to tune the droop a bit to get a little better action. The center of the chassis has such a small footprint, even with the low hung belly pan it clears most everything w/o a scrape.
Thanks to Fusion-Pack for keeping me in batteries!
