Yeah, you are right. The CR-01 is not getting much love on YT. Maybe it has to do with the fact that this thing is by no means a scaler. But so far I really love this car! Thanks for watching!
Hi there, looks like we had the same thoughts! 😂 I too have just completed a CR-01 Rock Socker, with the 4WS option too. Absolutely love this model for Tamiya and not overly popular on YT either, great thinking 😂😊😊best wishes 😊
Thank you John for watching and commenting! The 4WS option is a must have in my opinion since the steering angle is not that great. You are right about the popularity of the CR-01. So, let us put some videos on YT with this cool rig and show the community how good it is 😀
Nice shooting. It has a special dreamy feel to it. I like the upgraded aluminum damper too. 👍. By the way, I think a Chevy C10 body works great. Another option could be a Clodbuster ABS body. I bet that could be very awesome 😎
Thank you! Ah, the body from the Clod! I didn't think of that at all. Do you happen to know what wheelbase the body is for? Had a Chevy C10 once on an Axial SCX10 II.
Hi @@arminrc, I've just measured both my Clod body and my CR01 chassis. They both have the same wheelbase of 285mm. I have been thinking about doing this but haven't got time. Maybe you can do it first! Cheers!
Brilliantly filmed, I love the Tamiya CR01 chassis and especially the rock socker body which is basically a stadium blitzer truck. I like the crawlers because you can just go anywhere and any terrain at a relaxed pace 👍🏻
Thanks a lot for watching and the kind words! Yeah, the CR-01 is quite unique between all the crawler chassis. It is by far not the best chassis out there but something special and in a world where almost every crawler chassis looks like the other this worth something.
The footage for this video was taken in a forest near my home tome in Bavaria, Germany. The cool thing about this place is that it is only about 5 minutes by bike from my house so I can go there even if I have not that much time for some RC action. Thanks for watching!
