bilinvic's RR10 Bomber Build

Nice work on those aluminum reservoirs

Been looking at those hubs but vp doesn't sell the 4 40 kit anymore. Is there a different vendor selling these or can I get some dimensions. Thanks

[bilinvic]

I used Locked Up RC scale wheels studs:

You installed longer shocks correct? Most likely why you aren't running into any clearance issues at full compression.

Build looks great

1. With the driver's side compressed. It's hard to tell the driveshaft is clearing the spur cover, but you can clearly see light between the shaft and housing.



2. With the passenger side compressed. There's approximately 3mm of clearance.





3. With both sides fully compressed. Note: I did add a rubber bump-stop so that the top of the SSD link mount wouldn't travel beyond the chassis underneath the fuel cell.

What does the rig weigh?

[bilinvic]

More details added:

Fuel Cell Supply Tube
RC4WD Baja Designs Squardon LED Pods
A secret bottle of NOS (in front of fuel cell)


At this point, my Bomber weighs in @ 7 lbs 10.5 oz w/o battery, 8 lbs 3.5 oz w/ 3300 mAh 3S battery.

Im interested in hearing how the king shocks perform. Still deciding on shock conf

[Biomedchad]

Everyone is out of everything it seems. Can't find any of the 4-40 acorns for some vanquish hexs. Nuts

[Biomedchad]

Can someone give me a length of the 4-40 screws? I can get some from McMaster Carr until locked up or vanquish has the scale ones back in stock.

Nice build, you always build the best, still going to check out Mt. Doug one of these days.

that thing is badass, i so want one. how are those pod lights?

[tedo]

Looks awesome dude. Nice details.

[GLHS592]

I like everything you have done to this rig. I'm going to copy some of it as I can. Those lights are exactly what I was looking for. Do you just plug them into the rx? Also, can you please update your parts list in the first post for us lazy people? ;)

[bilinvic]

Thanxs guys.

The light pods work well, I have them on my DMG Wraith as well, they are 2S only. I haven't hooked them up on the RR10 yet, on the Wraith I use a seprate 2S LIPO for the pods and lightbar. I may just use the RX since my BEC is set to around 8 volts for my HH servo.

I would also like to pick up a KoH rear lightbar.

I'll work on getting a full parts list posted soon.

[Terrible1]

Looks awesome! Your build threads never disappoint!

[luckster]

Wow. Great job on the custom and upgraded parts. So very unique, something to be proud of. Brovo........

I dropped the pinion down to a Robinson Racing 10T....12T / 64T was just too fast; believe it or not! The 10T will also help the motor stay cooler. While I had the body off, I added a on/off switch on wires supplying power for the lighting from the RX.

Beyond excellent build.

Looking forward to seeing running vids
