My U.G.C. Fastback

[cornsnake]

I like this chassis! It is very good. The creator is cool too.
It's sits at 12.1" right now. I'll fix that later.
SWX front lower links, stock AX-10 upper links, to an STRC 4link/servo/batt. Plate.
Rear upper and lower links are, Revo steel push-rods, to a BC 4link plate.
Novak rooster crawler esc combo/ 55t
Rx mrx3000
Tx dx3r
Mip rear drive shaft.

Very nice! I really like the clear panels, and I need to try my Axial comps flipped too.

Nice job

Thanks C*H*U*D! Cool chassis, man. This pic is why used axial comp. Shocks, & my main guide pic for this quick build up.

Now I have to figure out how to stretch-out the back a lil.

Since dickyt must be busy I will do some work for him. Cool rig and a very nice build for sure. I dig the clear as well.

Something to try. The angle of your rear upper links looks good but you might want to try and work on getting the links as close to horizontal with the ground as possible. This should get you a little better control fighting tt, or so I hear. Also try and see if you can get your front shocks inboard. That should give you better steering. If something else worth tuning in crosses my mind I will fire back up.

Good tips, thanks I'm gettin ready to move to Cali. I have already packed-up a bunch of stuff. So it will look better after the move. I moved my shocks inboard more, doing that let me install a BTA set-up.

Check-out some small changes. I added my BTA front end, that I was saving for my moon buggy. Front shocks were inboarded/ flipped back to normal. I had to add small spacers 1/8" to the front lowers to fix the front end. Last, I added some spacers for the rear links. Here's some pix & a link to a short test vid I just uploaded. Oh, it now sits at 12 3/8".
