Axial RR10 Bomber Budget Build - HD Gears - Episode 13

[@swiftxb]

I also use fasteddy bearings in my 2wd slash now. Their with the money and upgrade. I had a traxxas bearing explode where you bolt the drive shafts and trashed my gears in trans case. Thanks, for another awesome vid!!!

Great videos first off, I just got back into RC maybe like almost 2 years ago, the scale stuff really got me hooked again. Built a scx10ii just got the rtr electronics and found myself wanting something a little more extreme so I built a bomber. Stock kit and I threw a mamba X with a holmes puller pro xl 3500kv holmes servo ready to rock n roll. But the first 3 times I took it out just to test I broke the steering horn stripped it immediately then threw the right rear tire clean off the stock beadlock...I came back to your bomber upgrade series I watched parts of 2 years ago and next thing you know I watched the whole playlist in 1 sitting. I had to order up a bunch of vanquish parts, very excited. Just figured I would throw my 2 cents in also, great work my friend, If I ever make it all the way out to axailfest (WI native) hope I run into you. In a way you are part of me returning to the hobby along with Matt from SBG and guys like Coleman. Keep up the good work!

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Thanks Mike, I appreciate the comment. Hope you enjoy the Bomber as well, it is a beast of a truck!

[@MichaelLangmayer]

So how did you like the setup, you never said how it performed and if you would change it back to the stock setup? Thanks for all the vids, very good, lve watching all the episods and am just re-building mine with all your parts you suggested!

[@souledoutrc8174]

I know earlier in this video you said it's one of axials easiest rig to work on so hopefully if I do purchase one I will be able to say the same thing. I watched you do an overview on the trx4 and that one does look like it will be a challenge to work on. You made the bomber more appealing to me.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Souledout RC the bomber was definitely much easier to service. The Bomber is also a very different car compared to the scale TRX4. If I could only have one of them, the Bomber would be my choice.

[@souledoutrc8174]

Harley Designs awesome thanks for your help I appreciate it.

[@busterbrown1108]

Think you can do a driving tips video on the bomber. I have done almost all the same upgrades from this video on my bomber and I'm having a bit of a hard time keeping it on all 4 wheels now that I got my brushless motor installed. Maybe its just me and not having a lot of time with locked axles rcs. Love the builds and have fun at Axial fest maybe one day ill get there.

[@bigstin188]

do you have episode 14 yet

[@Calculatedrisk262]

When are we going to see Episode 14

[@2cwik4u104]

great vid Harley. very informative. are you getting a custom wrap before AF?

[@PhoenixRCCrawler]

I just built my first kit! But I was hoping you could give me some information on budget friendly brushless combo that won’t over load the system. A

[@rcnoypi8758]

Hi Josh got quick question for you do bomber and wraith have same transmission gears? Just my friend have broken gears on his wraith.. Thanks bro for responding;)

[@rcbasherpodcast898]

How does the underdrive gears in the rear with the standard gears in the front work for you when u4 racing? Is it noticeable?

[@nickdobrikov]

Hey I'm looking to buy the bomber but I'd like more speed, but I don't have the money for the motor you put in. Is there a cheaper option. Thanks

[@LGmarge]

have any videos of it running?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Timmy A several clips on my Facebook and Instagram page.

[@travismerrix4391]

Adding the lower gears in the rear was there a specific reason in not going with over drive in the front and stock in the back??

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Travis Merrix I'd always rather run more reduction in the axles as it takes stress off the driveshafts and transmission.

[@travismerrix4391]

+Harley Designs ok thanks for the reply you channel is great I have learned a lot from watching... Your budget builds are killer keep them coming can't wait to see what you do next

[@chrisflick2348]

Hello always helpful to watch you videos and I've built two of your chassis my question is I can fine anything on gearing I want slow and lots of torque for crawling with a two speed trans what do think of gears to use thanks

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Chris Flick 12t pinion and 56t spur is a solid low speed setup.

[@pennywisegaming9136]

What days are you going too be at axialfest???????????

[@kokilimonke]

Just look for him around the bacon wago ;)

[@pennywisegaming9136]

Lol

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Theprogamer1230 studios Wednesday to Sunday

[@pennywisegaming9136]

Thx

[@tomkirbygreen]

Loving this series sir! When's the next shop talk? :-)

[@gaelangarrett7385]

Alright, where are the goods? Been waiting a while!

[@thatsportsman570dude5]

Hey josh! Does the Currie yeti sway bar work on the bomber?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+The RC Expeditions it does work, but could use shorter end links so I haven't added it as a Bomber specific part.

[@rogerbeam3364]

I have a axial yeti built from a kit and I upgraded both diff's and the spur & pinion gears for more speed , do you think the stock transmission & transfere case gears should be upgraded too hardened steel or is stock ok ?

[@scottrc5776]

Wouldn't it get drivetrain windup?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Scott RC Addict the slight drag effect from the rear aids in turning and climbing. Since we aren't running on pavement there is almost always enough slip in the terrain to not have adverse effects. It would be more of an issue if the rear was faster than the front.

[@scottrc5776]

Harley Designs ok, that makes sense, cool build

[@bigstin188]

awesome man

[@gaelangarrett7385]

Were you building up the bank while you were away?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

+Gaelan Garrett no, I just moved to California and nobody follows a budget out here! Haha! But seriously I will make it all right before long but I have to get some stuff done before Axialfest!

[@gaelangarrett7385]

+Harley Designs well I must commend your self control knowing you have VP axles and wheels laying around I'm sure.. Even through there is a bad ass tekin system pushing it around.

[@gaelangarrett7385]

"would you like to talk about our Lord and savior, TIRES AND WHEELS!"

[@bigstin188]

are you OK bud your behind on episodes 14 & 15 starting to worry me

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Slammed with Axialfest and now catching up! But I will get back on track!

[@tomkirbygreen]

Can I just add my voice to the chorus of Next Part Of The Bomber Budget Build Please! :-)

[@epeterson2448]

Definitely think I’m going to buy a bomber. What’s another 2k on hop ups and electronics 😂

[@barharborbasher249]

Oho NOOOO !!! A Axial Helical Cut bevel gears LMAO !!! I love my XL !!! Its so insane now Josh !!!I heard that I might be able to buy a Vanquish XL axle from the company ... Is this TRUE ?? I'd love to have that opportunity .. Can you help me out ?

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

I wish I had some time to spend with my XL but it hasn't been driven in months. We have TONS of XL axles on the shelf but can't advertise them for sale until we address the issue. If anyone wants to buy one knowing the issues with the HD gear then I have no problem selling them one.

[@barharborbasher249]

+Harley Designs that's so great to hear Harley!! I know the guys would buy them up knowing that!! I'll let them know !! thanks ALOT 👊 Ive modified almost 100 pinions for free for the RCC communitywww.rccrawler.com/forum/axial-yeti-xl/557685-must-watch-video-hd-gear-mod.html

[@barharborbasher249]

Hey Harley !! Can I send you my XLX so you can bash, smash and trash it at Axial Fest for its maiden voyage ??? I would be Honored... It is the Baddest Ass Axial in the U.S if not the world...

[@davidmclain3106]

Nice
