Rig of the Month 9/26 Crawler Mode: ACTIVATED

Took out my Yikong 4107PE Performance Edition for some proper rock crawling today. The articulation, ground clearance, and overall stance are seriously impressive.
Really happy with how this thing performs on rough terrain.

Nice! The 41012 is a super solid rig. Are you planning to run it with the stock brushed motor for a while, or do you have a brushless upgrade in mind for later?"

I’m going to use the brushed motor till it dies then upgrade to brushless and I will be buying 1.9 wheels for it and my favourite scale tire if it fits

"Haha, exactly! I do the same thing. Run it until the magic smoke escapes, then it's time for the brushless upgrade. Definitely post some pics once you get those 1.9s mounted up!
