Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Well i have some mclows on the way so i did the danally mod to some stock rims i have, then painted them, then glued the beadlocks to the inside i think they turned out pretty good i put the old tires back on just to see how they look, here are some pics

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

i like the bodies! you dont run custom links?

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

No I need to get the stuff to build my own what did you use?

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Well heres a little something i got the other day in the mail its the v2 micro wedge dub topper im waiting to get the v2 chassi upgrade so i can mount the cab, i sure hope everything clears in full flex does anyone else have this setup? only one ive ever seen was on the bwd website. heres a teaser pic!!!"thumbsup"

You guys ready?

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

I think i will call her The Micro Mantis!!!!!!

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

[popcorn] cant wait to see how this one plays out! and for the link you use 2/56 all thread, 1/8 aluminum tubing for better looks (optional) and either mini t ball cups or associated ball cups. i like the losi because they are black the associated cups are clearish white

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

no, the width of the chassis, from plate to plate

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

That's what I thought u ment about 7/8 in the front and 5/8 in the rear.

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Well i got the McClaws mounted 50 bbs in each front and about 30 in each rear i like the size of the tires, but im thinking they are almost to soft they dont side hill well at all, so here are some pics, tell me what u guys think!!!"thumbsup"

i just set the body on for some pics

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Have you ever thought of using your favorite soda can as aluminum body plates?

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Yea I did that with my Losi comp crawler it had a monster can hood and roof, cans are super thin only worked good on my lcc because I folded all the edges for strength. I'm sure I could make some but I don't know how well they would work, kinda wanted to keep the cab as light as possible, I know it wouldn't make that much of a difference but just some thoughts I know it's about half the weight of the body that was on it. so I'm doing better there.

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Looks like more wheelbase length could help a little.
I think +1CM on the front and back looks good, and performs well with the Miclaws.
Something to think about when building your custom links .

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

I think I'm gonna go back to my boggers on this rig

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

id try extending it before jumping to conclusions about the wheels

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Yeah i was gonna stretch the rear out but not the front, well here are a couple pics of the cab mounted to the v2 chassi i have some black on black bwd micro vertex rims i found on the way"thumbsup", so more to come!!!!

i like this one:lmao:he is the funny man

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

Have you thought about flipping the tranny?

Re: BWD Mirco Wedge
 

if you do not stretch both sides the same length the chassis will not be level
