TEAM423's ax10 comp buggy

[team423]

my ax10 comp rig has a comp 55t aftermarket plate chassis a couple 945 servos for the front and rear steer,it has blue dot rovers and runs on lipo.I also got a venom creeper comp rig that is also built..my question is they both got bug bodys and i cant get my axial lower to the ground..shocks iam thinking...what u think?

you could get shorter shocks
or do a drop suspention. this requires you to pull the shocks apart & place a spacer on the shaft (some use fule tubing) then slide it back in the body & put it all back together.

A droop setup without limiters will let you lower the chassis at rest and keep the articulation you have now. Less isn't worse. You might have more success just limiting the up travel on the shocks. You can search for limiting the shocks.

The fuel tubing will serve as a limiter for the shocks, if you place it on the shock shaft inside the shock body it will reduce the extension of the shock by the length of the tubing. So squish your suspension down to the point where you want it and then release it. Do that a few times and look at how much each shock compresses and cut 4 pieces of fuel tubing to match. Put them inside the shock body, on the shock shaft.

I have that same chassis it was designed for moa rigs so its both shorter in height and in length than a stock chassis. I set mine up with a 3" shock limited by 6mm. The shocks are still angled enough that you get good articulation but not too much....just my 2cents nice to see someone else took the chance to build a shafty with that chassis.

thanks 707 this thing does real good it has killer flex in the back..its only problem is body roll.. sits up a little to high..when i fix that we will be golden

You know that rear steer is not allowed in comps, right?

[team423]

yes i do..me and my buddys put our own comps on and some have dig and some have steer so our comps are RUN WHAT U BRUNG...so everybody can ride
