That's looking good. I like that you (and others) are taking advantage of the multiple shock mount positions.  |

well more parts should be coming in tomorrow to finish the build, Id would like to thanks frankyrizzo for kinda trading for my brushless set-up that had why to much power for the r2d he got a steal I think but its worth it to me!! Id also like to thank pinchflat for letting me test this chassis I think im the only one thats going to be running an r2d in this chassis to date!! well hope to have more for you guys in the next few days if you have any question or comment please reply!!

Thats a very cool chassis. Do you know if an R2D with a cobalt puller will fit??

Excellent chassis design, one problem with the build. The body posts are too low on the chassis. They will get hung up on everything. Just a thought, switch the upper links with the body posts to give them a little more clearance. Or for maximum clearance, move the upper shock position down, and move the body posts to an open shock position. Otherwise great build.  |
