I have no idea what I’m doing… I need some help.
I’m completely new to crawlers and RC in general, so I could really use some advice.
First off… yes, I know, it’s a Gatekeeper rip-off chassis from AliExpress. I had no idea about that when I bought it. The links are also from AE…
This is my first attempt at building something reasonably capable from scratch.
How does this look so far? Are the links mounted where they should be? What about the shocks? Are the link lengths reasonable? The wheelbase is sitting at around 150 mm right now.
Does this have the potential to become a decent crawler, or is there anything I should change?
Where should I go from here, and what else do I need? I’ve got an Injora Fat Viper on the way, along with Injora’s aluminum transmission. But after that?
Wheels and tires recommendations? Will I even be able to make full use of the steering angle from the MEUS axles with this chassis/setup?
Any advice, criticism, or tips are very welcome!
