it took me 6 months to get all the parts ๐Ÿ˜‚ mostly because the motor got lost in the mail twice and it needed a ton of bolts. building is super easy, 1 hour max.

yes I believe there is a threaded rod within the fake piston and a motor in the armature, it sounds like it as well.

rocks and stumps are fine, sand or gravel is fine but long grass can be a pain, I add brass parts to weigh them down and then they are almost unstopable. I like this size because it allows me to make a big course in my backyard

it is just electric :) and it is indeed the crawler course! I ride 1/24 scale on it, fcx24 mostly

 

The Huina 1593 works great for light gardening like weeding

Is that a kind of superglue? I don't know if that would be strong enough, or flex enough. I ordered the part on Ali, in a couple of weeks it should be here :) The spoiler I will re-print but now in TPU, a kind of rubber, almost indestructible.

 

This is a WLyoys 284161, I drive it like I stole it and it shows :D Unfortunately I cannot print the rear axle thingy because it is so tiny

Printed some crazy tires for my FMS FCX24, everything got stuck in these things and they did not drive or crawl very well ๐Ÿ˜…

 

I try to build a crawling track for 1:24 in the garden, these 'lava stones' work great and become mossy in about a year, I like that.
