I like it. I am much happier with the MOA design than the center trans and shafts that break or hang up.

Thing should do real well if you keep all your weight as low and forward as possible.

Here's the video from Oro's first run Oro at 5 star complex - YouTube .

###Warning don't let anyone from the Wraith section see this, we wouldn't want them buying up all the Bully V1 axles lol #####
Oro blew my mind, it was crawlin almost as good as my 2.2 comp rig lol. I was going to tune this rig, but now I'm going to leave it alone. :p

Ok now ya did it. Made go out and grab a used wraith chassis. Now I can throw my spare Bullys under it.

Any chance you can throw up some good pics of what had to be modified on the chassis and what you went with for links?

My Bully's are pretty much stock with the exception of the behind the axle servo mount. I noticed you had aftermarket tubes, hope my stock ones are not going to bean issue.

any help and info greatly appreciated.

John

jaloos,

It's so easy, just use the stock Wraith skid plate to build off of. I used all thread and alum & stainless tube for the links. Please post up a build for it. I want to check it out.

Have you seen the video? It climbs like a pissed off mountain goat lol. The Wraith chassis, is not that heavy, so it works pretty damn good. I could make it side hill better by lowering it, but then it wouldn't be any fun to drive. I'd say it drives like a comp rig with a shitty setup and driver .

I think you should lower it a bit and widening it some as well. Looking good though.
