novicelad 787 Posted January 14, 2020 Just brought this on Facebook market place should come in the next few days! It has loads of Hop Ups and quite excited about receiving it. I will be selling a CC-01 and a Wild Willy to fund this if anyone is interested 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderDragonCy 7878 Posted January 14, 2020 Nice! I am intrigued by these CR01s. They look amazing chassis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently they are a bit out of date now but I don't car love the look of the chassis. Got one for my son for his birthday it's amazing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badcrumble 4203 Posted January 14, 2020 That looks like a good score to me, can I see high clearance lower arms? Has it got the upgraded drive shafts? From what I have read, they are the only 'necessary' hop up and they are still available from RC Mart and eBay. I still still haven't built either o fmy Rock Socker or FJ Cruiser! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geniusanthony 361 Posted January 14, 2020 Nice score. I see what looks like aluminum shocks and bellcranks and spring mounts. If your in the market to put a Blackfoot shell on it I know a guy Also, agree about the drive shaft, I'd twisted one clean off with a brushless. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalEl63 695 Posted January 15, 2020 Nice pick up.... I’m waiting on mine to arrive along with the other bits I got for it 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KING_TUBBY 10 Posted January 16, 2020 I enjoyed building mine a lot more than running it. Bit disappointing even with both diffs locked. It's sort of halfway between a comp & scaler but doesn't excell at either, but like a said a real fun & complex build. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

novicelad 787 Posted January 17, 2020 And it has arrived, can't wait to get started 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ertRob 2 Posted January 18, 2020 Congratulations, it looks a very nice rig! You have been very lucky because it's plenty of hop-up, especially the metal axles that as of today are difficult to find. To complete the project suggest you to add the following: - aluminum servo mount (like tamiya 54104) - aluminum side frame 54087 - carbon mechanism deck 54111 - Aluminum skid plate 54105 (I'm not sure but maybe from the pictures is already installed) If you add the above, you will have a dream CR01 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novicelad 787 Posted January 21, 2020 These came today https://ebay.to/2GgS1tP Just waiting on the servo reverser Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
87lc2 2666 Posted January 21, 2020 Nice servos, I use them all the time in my crawlers. You can just hook the rear up to your third channel and control it that way, don't really need a reverser (unless your radio is not capable of 4WS). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for that, I have a Flysky i6 I use for my cars. Will I be able to do it with that? I guess I just mix the channels? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novicelad 787 Posted January 23, 2020 Managed some progress tonight, got the servo's mounted and tested with the ESC. Also stripped down a bit and gave a bit of clean! Even managed to get the AWS steering working with channel mixing first time I have done that so well happy!

novicelad 787 Posted February 10, 2020 This is where I am at so far, I rushed the body so made some mistakes but it looks OK Just got to fix body to chassis and waterproof receiver 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

novicelad 787 Posted February 12, 2020 So I have been playing with my Flysky i6 to see what I can do with it. This is a modified one basically flipped the levers over so channel 2 is on the left so get a traditional stick feel Anyway what I have done is mixed channel 1 and 3 so that I can do all wheel steering, you can also do this by turning the throttle control up and turning off the mixing. I don't thing it would be very practical in the real world though but may be fun to show off! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novicelad 787 Posted February 14, 2020 Finished for now, I am not sure if tyres too big but we will see, overall happy lets get muddy! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
