So i have a rock bouncer chassis being made by FastFred should have it in a week or so hes just finishing it up. but in the mean while, i have some questions,what motor and esc combo are people running in there bouncers? Mine is being made to fit a wraith center skid so ill be using my rock jock i have on the front and an integy wraith axle i had laying around with titanium BMRC links.. if theres anything i should change yell at me lol. i planned to put pro line power strokes on it but im thinking there gonna be too small so i might use some gmade xd aeration shocks i have here that are 103mm.

sneak peak, it will be different its not totally done.

I am running the gmade 103, my powerstrokes were to short for my liking, but may limit the 103s in front just a little , still have a little testing and tuning to do

Power :
I'm running a tekin pro4 4000kv, tekin rx8 esc ... 4000kv may be a little more peppy for some but I like it!! The power is there when I want it

Im running a hitec 7950 servo and CCBEC

Thunder power 3s 65 mah lipo

Based off wraith skid and wraith curries.

Your rig looks sweet . I'm gonna be starting a build thread of mine once I get time lol

Here's mine , still deciding on color scheme.

Ok so,we need to get this straight here. I did not build this chassis I was told it was built by warriorsimi??.i am just revamping it to run a wraith skid,and adding some stuff to it. I don't want to take credit for a chassis someone else built.

When you going to start a build thread! So the panels are going to be green? What's your plans for interior? Gunder you will love the bouncer. They are just fun and different to drive.

Nice! There are also other options than a pro 4 if you do t want to drop a bill fifty on one. A sensored 13.5 is a great all purpose motor. Just don't skimp out on the servo because they are worth every penny.

i hope they will be fun i have a state park in my back yard literally, so its fun to drive them over there and it offers every kind of terrain possible,

well i have a killshot 13.5 motor i could use witha tekin rs i have

for a servo i dont know what to get. any suggestions ill spend whatever on a servo if its good and will last... i broke alot of gears in my brass geared savox servos... and i like the monster servo with 444oz of torque my local hobby shop has one for 109$.. its all aluminum and i think stainless gears. but i wasnt sure if the stainless will hold up cause stainless bolts like to shear off so i think the teeth of the gear would be the same with that amount of torque

Hitec 7950 is what I would run or even better a 8380.

I know I know lol I need a build thread. Work has me super busy lately. Honestly it's all in pieces right now. I'll try and get a build thread started ASAP!!

As for the panels... Possibly green since I'm a big fan of green... Just an idea. I cut a few sets of panels so I can try diff color schemes.
After I get my ti links in mail in the best few days I'll get it all back together and working on interior.

Kinda been waiting on alum radiators to get back in stock. Hopefully they will be pretty quick.

Prob run wraith seats and fab up an interior. * have a few ideas knocking around

Will try and get a build thread up soon! Keep an eye out

X2 on the 7950, will do you great and you won't look back.

And x2 on motor as well.
Pro4 setup can be pricey, I had a 13.5 in my other rig and it was great !! I had tekin redline 13.5 , tekin rs, on 3s

I think you chose the best of the best. You will be very happy with them. Did you grab a Hotwire?
