No build thread for mine...it looks just like yours with subtle differences...I always tell everyone to come see your build as it was the inspiration for mine....I'm waiting on a new chassis too...how is your cage working with the Karnage chassis? Modifications?

So finally switch for my new chassis: Karnage v1... Will see how it goes and if it perform better then before... Not much of a big upgrade but give way better clearence for the axles in full compression... New chassis: Scale Chassis Rails - JC Auto Design I had to bind a bit the 2 bars as picture above on the SMF cage, seems to hold great... Installed this too: Rear Chassis Brace - JC Auto Design I also ordered the CMS/Panhard kit but didn't install it yet... will test the rig as is for now and will see how it handle... CMS + Battery Mount - JC Auto Design CMS + Panhard Truss Combo - JC Auto Design |

I have a power wagon model which has the slipper cover on the transmission. Do you know if this smf rc cage would block the body from mounting? The side view of the chassis in this link shows how the slipper cover protrudes at the back: Axial Racing - SCX10 |

Ok... Deceided to go with cms/panhard for the first time... So I went with the jcauto design kit as picture above but I have a problem... Everything fit perfect and smooth except for my servo... Don't know how to place it... In this pic, the servo horn hit my bumper mount: In this one, the servo horn hit the panhard bar at compression: Need help here... Envoyé de mon LG3 avec Tapatalk |

| Re: Starting a truggy... Look into making a J bar style panhard bar. That may clear better but it is hard to tell from the picture. The main thing to remember on a panhard bar is the only thing that matters is the eye to eye distance. The shape of the bar doesn't matter as long as it doesn't bind. I hope that helps.

I ran a cms kit and wasn't a big fan of it so I went back to stock axle mounted...from the pictures, can u flip ur servo around so the horn is more towards the camera to clear the Panhard bar?

Can't tell right now... Didn't have the time to try the new setup yet... Will do extensive test this weekend for sure... But for now, it seems I got the same flex as before but more clearance with the new chassis... Everything is smooth, Locked up Rc did a very good job on this kit compare to others I had before!

Test ride of the Ratoy 2.0... I'm very happy with the new setup... The ''rat'' did very well on various terrain, was smooth and predictable... 2 problems occured tho: -my front lights don't work anymore , don't know why lol... easy problem here,,, -the panhard axle mount didn't held cause i used only 2 screws because of my Beef tubes... Problem will be soon resolve: Gunnar Tube - SCX10 Flat top Didn't had the time for a video but a shitload of pics |
