Wheelbyte's RR10 Bomber

[wheelbyte]

My wife picked me up a Bomber for Christmas during the black friday deals. Luckily for me she let me have it early so I could start messing with it!!!

First order of business was to upgrade the power in it. Also got the wheels picked out.

Holmes Hobbies Trailmaster BLE Pro (waterproofed)
Tekin ROC 412 3100kv
Holmes Hobbies HV400 steering servo
SSD Assassin 2.2 Beadlock wheels

Next up was links and trailing arms

RC4x4 Stainless Links set
RC4x4 Stainless Steering set
UCFab Trailing Arms

Painted up the fuel cell and fab'd up a mount for an EXO rear light bar. Used the HeyOK KOH light kit. Blue and Amber flash and Reds are brake lights.

I am now waiting for tires & foams. For foams I ordered Crawler Innovations 5.5 Double Deuce's. For tires I went with Ottsix VooDoo U4's in silver.

Great start! i love those wheels!, i went the oposite direction with mine, i upgraded the whole drivetrain with hd gears, beef tubes, trusses, links, unis and the vanquish stage 1 kit first. next is motor and esc, third is tires and wheels and then curries if i can talk myself into another $400.
im gladf axial built this kit, i have high hopes for it!

Getting my shocks set up on my bomber. In the front I used the Proline Powerstrokes designed for the Slash rear (6063-01). They are 102mm in length.

In the rear I am running a dual setup..... I am using the new Proline Powerstroke XT that are designed for the Yeti they are 128mm in length. I am also running the RC4WD Ultimate Scale shock as a dampener only it is 100mm. I am still messing with spring rates and shock oil.

I added the homemade King shock sticker

Where did you buy your XTs? No one is supposed to have them in stock until the 20th.

The window nets are made by Associated and they are for a SC10B. You can get them on Amazon or @ Tower.

Cool deal!!!! I was pretty impressed with Proline's shipping speed.... I ordered on Thur and got the shocks on Sat!

I am liking the shocks so far..... right now I am running 30wt oil and blue primary and secondary springs on them which are the softest. But I also have the secondary dampners as well.

Thanks again. I'll be using the XTs strictly as secondary dampers. I've gotten really good at tuning the Traxxas big bores and Axial springs combo that I run on all my rigs now. I'm hoping that these XTs will eliminate the shock fade I was starting to see after the first half hour or so of driving. Normally I like really bouncey rear ends but not on my Bomber. :mrgreen:
