098 - CR01 Rebuilding & Modifying (part 5)

In the past week I was convinced that all the modified to my CR were finished so I took some shots before a short shakedown.
Unfortunately, for an unknown reason, I fried the ESC and to understand it I had to ask about some strange symptoms in the Scalers and Crawlers board.
The next (and I hope the last) step is the building of a different radio tray to install the Hobbywing Crawler ESC I've bought some weeks ago.

097 - CR01 Rebuilding & Modifying (part 4)

With the arrival of the new Gmade shock the modifieds of my CR are next to be finished so I sacrificed the ABS baja body to decide where to cut the lexan repro I will buy asap.
For the next week I've planned some finishing works: painting the radio tray, painting or polishing the chassis and some other little adjustements.

096 - CR01 Rebuilding & Modifying (part 3)

This week I've built from scratch a plexiglass radio tray and I made some body cuts to match it with the new chassis. Fortunately I've got an old body to sacrifice.

095 - Oh! Those Little Lipos!

Some days ago I've bought two little 1300mah lipos to power my modified CR. The chassis I've designed is inspired by Sportsman class and standard batteries won't fit.
