Oh yeah, revo definatly wont fit in this setup.
If you run the axial overdrive gears in front with axial shafts , it fits good also.
Let me know how it come out.

Will do, but I'm thinking about using the HD R&P for the RTR3/RS4 Three, turns out the ratios are the same between those and stock WK as well as stock Axial and Axial OD gears!

I run these in the front.

They are awesome, Plus it overdrives the front. Front does a full rotation while rear does a little less than 3/4 . Running the axial 43/14 in rear.

Cool, I'll keep that in mind!

Did some work on my steering and shocks getting ready for the next comp.
I moved to the last hole on the servo arm.Then I had to file down the corner of my lipo/servo mount to get max throw out of these rcp knuckles. It was worth it. With the front over driving, this rig turns great now!!
Here you can see under the servo, the corner i had to file down.

End results were steering like this.

Overall rig is working awesome and my homemade dig is still holding up great. No breakage to date. Have actually been able to stall the puller 500 and not break anything.....YET.

I'm liking that sero mount you made for your WK, very nice

congrads on the win

rottenbelly · 01-10-2010, 09:54 AM

Update. Rig is doing awesome. Took second place in this weekends comp to a berg of course. Dig worked great, turning was outstanding.
I just got caught up in a few driving mistakes.

But the rig crawled great!! Wasnt much that it couldnt tackle.

Man you really have this thing tuned. Each time it gets better and better. It appears that the softer shock setup as really helped!

jsj1982 · 01-24-2010, 07:10 AM

very impressive i just spent the chunk of time reading through from start to finish. the motor seems awesome. i love reading builds. thanks

Got some great practice this weekend. Getting this thing ready to go to the Midwest challenge. Dig is working great. Need to do some shock setup on the rear. I put some Jeepindoug c cups on the shocks.

Going go get some video this week.

Yeah, I made it across!!!

Makes it very few of a kind.

Also the guy who actually came up with the design is back in business. Now he is known as Billet works Designs.

I have been wanting to change the DNA to BWD in the title.

OptimusV6 · 03-01-2010, 03:38 PM

Being a newbie and all... I've never seen a dig setup before (I haven't receive my WK yet, which will be my first crawler)... now I understand why people that compete in rc crawling like them so much... very nice!

CREEPINKING · 03-01-2010, 06:38 PM

I had no idea it would be that capable. Thats amazing. Im jealous, now I HAVE TO find one of these chassis. Thanks for the vid. rottenbelly.
