Default Comp Rebuild

Well, since I have been running my Bully as a comp rig, my Axial hasnt seen much use.....so I decided to rebuild it for a different class. My club runs an additional comp class that is a bit more of a scale rock racer class. I will compete in this with my Axial. I swapped over all of the running gear from my CFX based Ax10:


Specs:
DMG Alluminati Chassis
DMG Light Bar w/Proline lights and Axial LEDs added
Axial axles w/ Felsenfest CVDs, lockers and knuckles
Axial tranny w/ RR gears, Eritex dig, MIP Shafts and a 7T Puller motor
Revo/Jato shocks
7955TG
Sindewinder, CC BEC, TP 1350 3S, Spektrum

Pics:






Soon to come....

Lower Links sleeved with Stainless Tubing

Team3Six scale goodies:


Propane setup

Haha.....thanks! If you've been wanting one, then pull the trigger! Jerry does some AWESOME work! I was amazed to find that the mounting holes for the links are PERFECTLY aligned. Couple that with the extremely light weight of this chassis (0.8 lbs unloaded with the the panels attached) and you've got one helluva setup!

Yeah, I've had great luck with the MIP driveshafts!

I brought this truck up to work with me and tossed it on the scale......6.2 lbs RTR. It will probably get slightly heavier when I add a few more scale goodies. I dont know how that compares to other tubers, but to me, that's pretty damn good!

Jerry,

Thanks for the compliments. Also, thanks for adjusting the chassis to fit our class length requirements!

I got a bit of work done today. Mounted the electronics and hid them the best I can. I made a rear deckplate out of some delrin and mounted it to the tubes:

UM, you can see the Eritex dig in this pic (compared to the length of the Puller motor):


It fits with plenty of room left!
