Finally finished my U4 Bomber aka "Envy"

[*Old*]

Agreed! Very nice looking rig man. Great job on the photo taking as well. Looks like it could be in a magazine

Any chance you could show under the interior so we can see how you got the wealth interior to fit? Sorry ima noob. And does not look like it will fit in mine.

I'd like to see this too. Could just pull the side panels off and take a couple pics.

what shocks and springs are you using?

The reason I was able to use the Wraith interior is due to using a Wraith transmission on the Bomber skid.

My actual Wraith is running a Bomber skid too.

The cowl over the Wraith dash is a hand molded piece of .030 lexan with automotive 3m vinyl covering it.

Here are a couple images showing the build...

Thank you very much. It was my first time trying to take 1:1 perspective images.

The rig is raced in U4 and is a podium finisher.

My Wraith is also fitted with a full interior and was raced U4 but is now my competition rock bouncer.

It took me a few tries to figure out how to be that scale and not leave a trail of parts around the track.

No one else in my area races with a full interior. As the U4RC rules state, "scale before performance". In this case I have both.

The shocks are Pro-line 100mm Powerstrokes in front and Pro-line 5" XL Yeti shocks in the rear.

Sweet build! Thank you for sharing! Really like the interior and the details on your fuel cell + wish I had your axles!

Thank you very much. I wouldn't have been able to get Those axles if it hadn't been for a chassis I had traded.

I was like a little kid at Xmas when I got them in my hands. LOL

Resurecting an old thread but i have a question on about the light bar.

I think you mounted it using the roof screw of the cage right ?
Does it stay in place when you hit a bump ?
Is there any other modification to mount it ?

I was about the mount mine from the inside of the cage by drilling a new hole for a long screw with a nylock nut but i saw yours which seems simpler.

Thank you

Looking at post #25, looks like he used the flat head cone washer to help spread the load and not move on roll overs. I wonder if its possible to still mount it inside using the same mounting holes as his? It might need longer tabs on the mounts.

I just tried and my OnetoomanyRC light bar is actually wider than the roof.
I have a good 1/4 inch of space between the cage screw and the bracket on each side.

So i guess i need a thick cone washer?

Actually I have removed that light bar and have gone instead with MadDogRC pod lights on a Wraith front bumper.

When the light bar was on it was designed to fold down under crash force as to not damage it. But just driving, jumping and climbing had no effect on it.

I did originally use large conical washers to distribute the load more on the contact points however, they were a bit over-exaggerated so I used countersunk screws instead. And yes, I had to use small aluminum spacers between the bracket and the cage.

The first few picks are of the original setup, the last few are of the revised setup with the Wraith bumper.

Last image is of it making its final pass to win the A-main a week and a half ago. LOL

Their mounting setup is not ideal. I have used the spacers on my Bomber and Wraith with no issues.

Cool, i have a bag of team knk spacers in the mail.
I'll have more than enough choices

If you get some nylon or plastic spacers and notch them to fit the tubes, the Onetoomanyrcs light bar fits the bomber very well.

What about rubber spacers used for antivibration on computer parts?
I have some M3 silicone spacers leftover.

Would they get squeezed and keep the bar from flipping forward?

The race pics are awesome.

How's that servo saver treating you? Been wanting to try one of the proline ones but that price is a bit crazy.

I dunno. It's worth a try, but that's such an uneven surface that my guess is that only a small part of the spacer would be compressed, which might not provide enough surface area to keep everything tight.

A thin rubber washer between the notched spacers could help keep things from twisting at that joint.

I have raced with it several times now and as of yet no issues.

However, Pro-Line used 3mm hardware vs 4mm so I am keeping my eye on it.
