The VF dig will fit, but it is tight..... you need to fully remove the tap.... see the pics .... let me know if you have any questions ....


ok piture to follow, i need to resize them..... but yes it will yet

Yeah, the tabs on the chassis are to mount the stock Scorpion battery plate, but most people dont even use that. To fit VF dig, you just cut off one or 2 of them...

It'd be a good idea to seal the CArbon, just to be safe.

Great outdoor pics!

the chassis looks great, thanks for all of the pics. How well did those tires do on the rocks? I'm eyeing a set of them for my rig.

The tires did really well, they had no problem finding traction. I added a little weight to the wheels and they worked even better!

Great pictures.
Does anyone know how the Warthog compares to the TCS Edge? Both in spec and performance?

Yes, and I was going to lightly sand them as well, but they were so clean already that I just wiped them down with a bit of motor spray, then sealed the edges with thin CA. I would highly recommend doing this...my buddy didn't seal his, and the plates on his rig are already worn down quite a bit near the lower link mount holes.
