RDR is finally done. I've sorted out the controller, battery and it's finally done. It'll take part in the Iron Games on 28/02/15. It's speed is 1.6mph and weighs in at 92g with everything in. Time to move onto the next project! Find photos over on Facebook: www.facebook.com/officialteamcrash

Re: Team Crash Build Diary
You should really try and get it as close to 150g as possible. More weight gives more traction and makes you harder to flip/throw!

Yeah, stick a weight in it over the wheels. Looks like you have plenty of room.

I'm going to try and put some aluminum on it so it gets heavier.

Re: Team Crash Build Diary
I've got the same weight lack too as alu isn't as heavy as you think.I got my whole chassis into your spare weight and that was 100% alu so metal may not weigh it up as much as you think...

Re: Team Crash Build Diary
Yeah, get some pennies or screws or something steel in there towards the back; will give you loads more pushing power.

Re: Team Crash Build Diary
What about seeing if you could shed the (I think)17g you would need to shed to make it a flea or would it not fit in the 3" cube

Re: Team Crash Build Diary
I checked that when I had it to fit the electronics; doesn't fit in a 3" cube.
