Re: my first xr10

Yes have you seen it in action?

Re: my first xr10

SWEET...another great rig added to the SCRCC club! Can't wait to see how it works for you at the next comp! You already had the rules down and a good idea of how to approach the gates and the courses as a hole so you're on the right track for sure 8)

On photobucket...choose the last option for the IMG code...just copy and paste it here...simple as that!

Re: my first xr10

Looks great, could use some deans plugs and body panels tho :mrgreen:

I recommend that you outboard the rear shocks at the chassis, it helps with sidehillin and overall stability. "thumbsup"

Re: my first xr10

So i am guessing you arent going to use springs?

 

[jeremyfowler33]

Re: my first xr10

should i move them all the way outboard or just play with it till i get a sweet setup?

I'm sending some body panels with it, they just need to be trimmed a little bit. Haha he is changing it to deans.... But there is nothing wrong with EC3 connectors ;P

Re: my first xr10

Damn man, your going all out. Sweet. Rig looks good and even sprung for a 4PL. You ought to be ready to jump into the next comp with both feet. Looking forward to getting together soon.

They are outboard of the chassis...not sure what you're talking about...

 

[jeremyfowler33]

Re: my first xr10

Wonder if he means move them to the end holes in the chassis?

Re: my first xr10

Ahh my bros it is an awesome crawler and you are going to love it.

BTW I'm Mitchell's bro and you were interested in my crawler on RCTech. Funny the guy that bought mine was also interested on this one.

Sorry should have been more clear . By outboarding the shocks I meant adding an additional spacer where the shock attaches to the chassis.

I used a traxxas ball end which is about 7mm wide, in doing this you will also need a longer screws i used a 3x30mm button head

Not the best picture, but you get the idea

Re: my first xr10

Gotcha...I'd definitely add a cross brace between those...this chassis flexes quite bit where the rear shocks mount. Axial makes a spacer that fits...I added one to Limited77's rig a while back and it took most of the flex out.

Just pick your rig up and twist the rear axle to full compression in either direction and watch the chassis plates flex...
