Default CPE Claw build

I got the axle kits, wheels and tires in today, so I started the build. I got the diff lockers installed and the gear cases all put together and installed on the chassis. I am waiting for the 23mm wheels adapters, should be here shortly.















Here is a mock up with the wheels and body

I owned one of the prototype CPE Claw chassis and I really liked the way it crawled.

I have been on Rccrawler, I don't post on there much, but I am soilwork on there also !!! It gets to be a pita when I post on to many rc sites. Myplan for the electronis are to use two rooster esc's so I can control the front and rear throttle independetly. I am going to use a 4 channel stick radio.

I am having second thoughts about the stick radio. I can have the dig functions and steering options with this computer. I will be able to use my 3pk and not have to spend addtional money on a new radio.
