Crawlers are very cool. But the typical sizes, 1/8 or 1/10 scale, seem
a bit small to me, and the beautifully machined axles and stuff are
very expensive. I could be misinformed. I have thought about how to
build a crawler  at a larger scale but still cheap. One thought is to
have the motors attached directly to the wheels to eliminate the
complex drive trains. And also to have skid steering rather than
ackerman. Not sure skid steering would work for rock crawling, but I
don't want to do rock crawling. (Maybe crawling over tanks?) I just
think the design would be good for general all terrain performance. I
have not found a good motor-wheel combination for that yet.
