tube chassis?
 
Hey guys I just picked up aan ax10 and I am sure its been asked before but I am looking for a tube chassis. I like the pro line but I would like some options. Thanks for the help.

Tubers are top heavy and don't crawl very well. If you are wanting to compete I would suggest a T1E bodiless chassis or a UGC Fastback (if you can find one in for sale section). If you just want a toy that looks cool then TCS has several tube chassis that are better than the proline. That proline thing is not a tube chassis. It is a plastic thing that you bolt on to your stock chassis to make it look like a tuber.

My tube chassis ax10 is significantly less top heavy than a stock chassis, and does much better than my friends stock chassis ax10.

I have a like new RC Solutions STING Chassis for a AX10 in the FS section but with you low post count you can't see it, it cost $90 new and I will take $55 shipped to lower 48http://http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l1...Picture314.jpg

I like trail riding. I might compete some day but for now just use it to exercise and not be bord while walking around on the local nature trails.

thats a nice looing chassis by rc solutions. haven't seen that one yet. I really like the dmg tuber's. they look like a work of art.

These are the bodiless chassis I was talking about.

T1E Moonbuggy

UGC Fastback

Both these chassis will have a much better COG than any tube chassis on the market.

Brian, have you ever even driven a tuber? :roll:






DMG is the place to go if you want a bad ass tuber. "thumbsup"

I have driven a TCS Edge, and I wasn't very impressed. I just think that the bodiless chassis are superior to tubers. DMG makes some really cool stuff, but aren't their chassis designed for Losi's? I know that one is:roll:. I know you are driving an FF4 Duuuuuuuude. There's a guy in my local club that has an Edge and once he saw how all the Moonbuggies crawled you could see the diappointment in his face. He is trying to sell it or make a scaler while he builds a berg.

The Edge is an old, basic design, and there are much better chassis's available.

DMG will make damn near anything you want. The pic was just an example.

I drive an F4 currently, not an FF4. I'm also nearly done building a tuber. This will be #2 for me.

I thought you were building a clinger? How's that one coming?

Wierd, guess that was just an old thread that popped up again a while back. Didn't pay much attention to when it was started.:oops:
