*BMVII Comp rig* Build Well i got my BMVII a couple days ago, put it together, and love it! This thing is sooo awsome. So capable and light. So far the specs are: Chassis: BMVII Axles: Tlt Tranny: Stampede Motor: Integy 55t Tires: Swamp dawgs Body: crowd pleezer What im gona do to it: Get some different tires, losi rockclaws Make a dig setup new knuckles, and prolly some cvd's Heres some poser pics but will get some action pics soon http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII001.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII002.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII003.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII004.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII005.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII006.jpg |
New knucles and cvd's wont do you much good with that servo/steering setup.;-) |
get some smaller battery packs, the stick sub C pack like that is really messing with the balance of the BMV2 chassis. I run 2/3a 7 cell and it doew not touch the rods at all. What kind of wheel weight are you running? |

Looks like a good start. I am working on a BMV2 as well.... |
Got everything nice and organized, and i stole the receiver and controller off my t-maxx, so i can have control for a rear dig. O and heres a wedge for the rear axle that Rxcrawler made. Hopefully Monday i can order some knuckles, cvd's, and tires. Heres a few pictures.

Updates!!! Well i got my Losi rockclaws and there SWEET! I love them, and i painted some wheels for them, i put like 100 coats of clear coat on them. I also made a rear disconnect. I had a dig setup but i liked the rear disconnect better. I can just hook the rear tires when i want it to turn real good, but the big thing for me is it climbs awesome! And i made a course and used it just 4wd and then rear disconnect and i did a lot better with rear disc. I also got a better servo, i stole it off my t-maxx. But when i was crawlin around my fish pond it rolled into it and fried the esc. So i got to get a new one. I don't want to spend that much, so what do you guys recommend? Thanks and heres some pictures! http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII040.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII046.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII041.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII042.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII044.jpg disconnected http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...6/BMVII045.jpg |
Looks good,you need to do something with your wiring and get a battery pack that isn't on the wire.You need to lose that servo saver and learn to control the steering when its in a bind.Did you but any weight on,in those tires and wheel? |

Well i figured that a cheep esc would be a crappy esc. So i decided to put down more money than i wanted and got a Novak Rooster Crawler system. And there water resistant. Has anyone had any problem with them? Thanks! Nathan |
who do i need to contact to get a BMVII? |

Nice crawling spot. I miss my BMVII:-( |
well i got my rooster on. So far so good. http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...ewtuber006.jpg |
u should put the drag link for the steering on top of the kuckles then have a small spacer then the link from that to the servo horn and screw into the middle hole for more torque also upgrade to some better ball ends the traxxas ones are fine you just want something with very little play in them it looks like you havent shaved the bottom lip under the axles that will help a bit widners? i run the tg 10 ones with a small spacer to take up the play and it only widens it 1/2inch just a bit but it helps in off camber situations |
