    FaMiliar witH your X-Crawler eP SuPer ClaSS Crawler arr antenna Mount: Holds the antenna support tube Body Mount that your receiver antenna is fitted into. Antenna Mount body Mount: Machined from aluminium for Shock Absorber Steering Link Rod strength, the body mount supports the body. The X-Crawler ARR features four body mounts for maximum support.

  • Page 7: Final Assembly

    Final aSSeMbly The X-Crawler ARR comes from the factory partially assembled. Final Assembly should not take too long. Here is the list of procedures that must be done to finish your X-Crawler ARR: Join the two outer chassis assemblies to the centre chassis assembly, then install the body mounts. Install your electronics - servos, motors, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), and battery pack.
  • Page 8 SteP 2: inStallinG tHe body MountinG PoStS 1 - Install each of the four body mounting posts into the uppermost holes (next to the shock towers) in the chassis side plates, using four M3 x 22mm cap screws. IMPORTANT: Since the cap screws thread into metal, remember to apply threadlock to the cap screws to prevent them from loosening during use.
  • Page 9 5 - Connect the steering link rod to the servo arm, using one M3 x 18mm cap screw, one M3 tapered collet and one M3 lock nut as shown. IMPORTANT: The cap screw is installed through the back of the servo arm and the tapered collet is installed against the front face of the servo arm (a).
  • Page 10 5 - Refit the gear cover, then repeat steps 1~4 to install the second motor. IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the gear cover retaining screws or they may strip the threads in the gearbox. IMPORTANT: Again, remember to apply threadlock to the cap screws to prevent them from loosening during use.
  • Page 11 SteP 6: inStallinG tHe reCeiVer IMPORTANT: The type of radio control system you use and how you prefer to set it up will determine how and where you plug the throttle and steering leads into the receiver. Based on our Standard and Pro setups, this is what we recommend: Standard (2 Channel or More, e.g, Airtronics/Sanwa MX-3, Futaba 3GR) - Connect the two steering servos using a Y-Harness with an electronic reverser and plug the Y-Harness into channel 1.
  • Page 12 3 - Double-check to make sure that both ESC ON/OFF switches are in the 'OFF' position, then plug the Y-Harness into the two ESC battery leads and plug the battery pack into the Y-Harness. SteP 8: FittinG tHe body SHell IMPORTANT: The body shell can be mounted higher or lower than we recommend below.

  • Page 13: Chassis Setup Guide

    CHaSSiS SetuP Guide Chassis alignment and geometry are important if you want your X-Crawler ARR to perform well. A good performing truck means a truck that is easier to drive, too. Follow our guidelines in this section to get the most out of your X-Crawler ARR. The guidlines that we provide in this section are a good starting point for most users, however, there are numerous different setting combinations that will give you different results.
  • Page 14 adJuStinG tHe toe anGle The toe angle is the angle of both front tyres (or rear tyres) to each other, when viewed from above. Toe-in is when the front of both tyres point toward each other and toe-out is when the front of both tyres point away from each other. Zero degrees of toe angle is when both front or rear tyres point straight ahead.
  • Page 15 adJuStinG tHe SHoCK daMPinG Changing the shock oil (the oil inside the shocks) will change the damping characteristics of the shocks. In general, using heavier shock oil may not allow the X-Crawler ARR to react as quickly to suspension changes and using lighter shock oil may make the X-Crawler ARR bounce a bit without absorbing bumps in the terrain.
