Default Nismo's 2.2 bully "build"

I'm a long time browser, first time poster, try not to be too hard on me :P

I loosely call this a build because its just throwing parts together

Parts list includes:
bully 2 axles
bully steering kit
axial rockstars plus panthers with f400 foams
35t motors with torque rings
front dig switch
Kamikaze Kustoms Zero D chassis
Kamikaze Kustoms med/med lower links
other bits and pieces

You will be happy with KK stuff.

Looks like a good start to a throw together!

i hope i like the KK chassis, everything else is waiting on it, this doesn't really qualify as a build to me since i haven't technically built anything

servos that I've roasted after about 3 packs...

ordered a hobbico cs-170 (the one with 300 oz./in. and titanium gears) I'm praying that it doesn't go south or I might just rage a little

the cs-170 is the same thing as the hitec 5955......333oz at 6v. I run them on my scalers and my son's Comp truck.

What is your CCBEC set at?

What is your Steering EPA set at?

Just wondering why you killed 3 servos?

O.K.

The CS150 and 645mg may be a little under powered at 193oz-in at 6v for a Bully/Heavy rig?

I'm sure the CS170 should work much better for ya! And yah setting the epa's is a good idea.

Most often your small dig servos wont hold up to increased voltages like your steering servo. You can always rewire your bec to power just your steering servo if you keep blowing them up.
