Default Vader Bully comp rig

Here is a build up of my Bully axled comp rig for 09'
I started with a self made custom Delrin chassis.

Drilled and re-tapped a set of TCS bent links to 8-32 so I could use large Traxxas rod ends.



Then I got a set of Revo GTR shocks I'm using yellow springs in the front and greens in the rear.

I run a set of Eritex Delrin solids with Proline Chisels and stock foams. I run no wheel wieght.

I then made dig switch using Honeywell V15H22-CZ100A02-K 22 amp switches, and a Hitech HS-55 servo.

Here is the assembled chassis.

I run a JR z9100HVt steering servo.

I ran my first comp and did ok. I was out of practice and placed 7th.

Next comp was much better as I had gotten a lot of wheel time. Placed second.


I run Integy motors
55t front
45t rear
3s 1300 mah
Mamba Max
CC BEC
My dig wiring.

Thanks for looking.

Great looking setup

Nice work on the chassis

I really need to get some softer springs for my GTR shocks! What weight oil are you using?

That is amazing to me that you don't run any added weight

I am running Eritex adjustable off-set wheels with Chisel's and Ace's Donuts with 8oz. front and 6oz rear added.

Do you run breather holes in your wheels?

I run 10wt associated silicone oil, I also drilled out the piston holes to almost 1/16". yes I run two 1/8" breather holes

Thanks guys.

I have a vid of my AX-10 pulling a steep climb with no wheel weight. I'm of the school of thought that a light rig is a good rig. My bully rig only weighs 6.2 lbs. RTR. I use Delrin and stainless hardware keep the weight down.


Here is one of my favorites a 1 1/2 foot leap from rock to rock.

Reworked suspension and chassis. It like a slinky.
