Default 1.5 scale technical specs

any of you guys have any technical specs of your chassis/axles. im going to start a 1.55 build and im trying to plan out everything before i dig in. i want to build a jeep cj8 from a hard plastic body if i can find one. maybe ill mold it and make aluminum parts. i do have a losi mrc with the l trail chassis but dont know if i want to start with that or from scratch.

  • Get as many measurements of the 1:1 you are using as a basis.
  • divide em all by 18
  • START BUILDIN'

So that would make a 1.55 a 27" rim, very scale.

How about going off 1/8th, 1/9th, 1/10th or 1/12th scale, like most scale builds are built around?
