Today we’re back with another wrenching session on the Bastard JR — my current favorite RC rock crawler project running dual steering servos, custom links, and all kinds of experimental weirdness 🛠️🤘

In this episode:
➡️ I get the servo links installed and dialed in
➡️ Work out more of the “almost ready to run” details
➡️ AND… I run into a battery placement dilemma
I want this rig to perform as well as possible — balanced, planted, and confident on the rocks. So I’m opening the floor to YOU!

👉 Where do YOU think the battery should go for best performance?
Low and centered? High in the rear? Off to one side?
I want to hear YOUR setup ideas, tricks, and tuning philosophies! 🙌

Drop your setup tips below — let’s finish this monster together! 💬👇
