Default D1Rk's Rig

Well i got tired of seeing the same ax10's spammed in this thread, so here's mine.

So i finally uploaded some pics of my rig that i made.

Prop's to K9 for making the alum skid. I gave it my own little touch and notched out the back, but he did a killer job for me.

Details-
Custom tuber by me
Ax10 tranny/axles
Traxxas big bores limited/shortened
Imex Rubi's/axials beadlocks
4 link rear, 3 link front
2070 lipo with rooster (notice heat sink chopped off & polished)
50t integy hand wound
dx2
hitec 5995TG servo

Suprisingly good i think. From the little testing ive done they seem to be able to make every line my claws could, plus they work dang good in the snow!

I running the IMEX Rubi's as well at the moment, they have surprised me to this point.

Still waiting on my Claws so I can do some head to head comparisons, but the fact that they work as well as they do is progress for IMEX.

Rig looks good D1RK.

Yeah i havent tried the m3 compound but ive ran almost every tire. I would say these hook up better than the mashers did for me.

hey dirk hows the wheel speed with that battery and motor combo?

I like the chassis.
it looks like you kept some of the same lines as the fatdog and then did your own thing from there.
looks sweet!

Wheel speed is good, its almost fast walking speed. It's good for comp use, im running stock gearing, but think i will gear up two teeth for the winter.

Yeah i guess it kind of looks like some of k9's work. But i would say it looks more like gimbals. I didnt base it off any rig, i just drew out the design on graph paper and fabbed it up. I like it.
