Josh's Bully 2

[josh6575]

Ok here we go building another bully. Got some shiny new axles, knuckle weights, and a Rowdy racing battery tray. The outer weights are the add ons from Dlux. Drilled and tapped the Rc4wd weights so I could bolt the circular ones on. Thanks for the weights and tray Chris.

Welcome to the Revolution!!!!

Thanks for the hospitality. I am loving these things. Its nice only wanting to change a few things on bully's instead of recreating them from the ground up.

 

[ROWDY RACING]

Game on!

 

[chevotafun]

welcome
Yes I agree, it's nice to be able to buy something without changing almost everything on them.

Mounted up a Jr servo it is the MPH83T. Also going to install some 30T torque master pro motors from Holmes Hobbies. I don't know it the servo arm is going to make it to the party. I think it is going to be too long for the short arms on the knuckles.

 

[chevotafun]

That arm will be fine
Same arm I'm running with no issue

 

[josh6575]

I'll give it a try. If I have to turn down my epa its coming off. I set my steering up so I am using full throw.

 

[Tossedman]

Yeah, I had to turn down my EPA a bit as well.

 

[josh6575]

I like to use all of the throw so I can take advantage of all of the force available.

 

[Tossedman]

Me too but it goes too far and causes the tires to bind on the links, hence the turned down EPA.

 

[josh6575]

Got the drag link and tie rod! Used Vanquish 105mm and 155mm 3\16" Ti rods.

 

[ROWDY RACING]

Hmm...

 

[josh6575]

Just a slight bend on each end wahoo! Chris I caught your note on the servo getting moved over by the upgraded mount. I was going to try and work around it, but an extra 1/8" of room cannot be ignored.

 

[josh6575]

Made a CF .125" for Chris or 3.17mm servo plate and spaced it up with two aluminum traxxas ball ends. Lots of room for shocks and links now! I wish the servo wire was out the other side. Might have to take it apart and fix that.

 

[josh6575]

I received a short robitronics servo arm from TCS crawlers. I am able to get full steer with the innermost hole. I am really happy with this. I might be raising the servo up a little. It hangs down below the axle tube. I like the lowered CG. I don't like the vulnerability. I also love the ground clearance of these axles and want to take advantage of it.

 

[ROWDY RACING]

I have the bottom of my servo flush with the bottom of the axle tube.

 

[Tossedman]

Where are you going to hang your battery?

 

[CrawlrKing]

where are you going to hang your battery?

+ 1 ????

 

[cboggs]

Where are you going to hang your battery?

Bigger question is where are the links and shocks going with all that steering?
