RE: BEST CRAWLERS OUT THERE
The flex on some of these is crazy.
I'm just getting my Clodcrawler finished. Its got a Gecko II chassis and can get a full 90 degrees of articulation. Actually, with the shocks mounted all the way in on the arms it'll get 90+ degrees.
I saw pics on a different forum of a Chassis with 180 degrees of flex, but I'm not sure that would do you any good. It did look cool though.

Its a custom Tamiya Bruiser with stretched chassis, custom drivelines, links, tranny, shock mounting brackets, etc. Cost over $3k. All the electronics are in the black box in the rear

WOW! That's a lot for one RC. I would not want to mess it up if I had that much invested. If you have more detailed shots of the chassis, I would like to see them. Love the detail.
